Station Pier in Port Melbourne is where the big ships dock, and it gets busy on sailing days. A chauffeur takes the stress out of the journey at both ends, so you arrive calm and get home easily. Here is what to keep in mind.
Timing around your sailing
Cruise lines ask you to board within a set window, and the pier fills up fast on departure day. We plan your pickup so you arrive in good time without a long wait standing around. Share your boarding window and we work back from it.
On the way out we watch the traffic into Port Melbourne, which can build near the pier, and choose the route that keeps you moving.
Room for luggage
Cruise travel usually means more bags, and the right car makes that simple. We ask how many people and how many cases when you book, so the vehicle has room for everyone and everything. No squeezing, and no leaving a bag behind.
Group vehicles
Many cruise trips are families or groups of friends travelling together. The Mercedes V-Class seats up to seven with space for luggage, which keeps the group in one car. For larger parties we can arrange more than one vehicle so you all arrive together.
Tell us your numbers and your bags and we will match the right car to the job.
The meet on return
Coming home can be the harder part, with thousands of people leaving the ship at once. We arrange a clear meeting point and your chauffeur is ready when you step off, so there is no scramble for a taxi in the crowd. After a long trip, that is a welcome thing.
Book it in advance
Sailing days are predictable, so booking ahead is easy and worth it. Give us your ship, your dates and your group size, and we will set up both the drop off and the return pickup. Call us on +61 468 980 000 to lock it in.
