Our services at Melbourne Airport

Melbourne Airport car hire with SIXT

SIXT offers convenient and affordable Melbourne Airport car hire. Our branch is located right at Melbourne Airport (MEL), commonly known as Tullamarine Airport, offering a range of vehicle types suited to the city and exploring along the coast of Victoria. If you’re going to be spending your time in the built-up areas of the city where traffic is the densest, you can opt for a compact model. If you’re on a family or group holiday and want to make more of a sightseeing road trip of your holiday, we have up-to-date minibus models with child seats and sat navs as bookable extras.

SIXT's location at Melbourne Airport

We’ll look after you from the moment you arrive till you’re driving away in your hire car. Our Melbourne Airport car hire office is located in the East Coast Car Rentals area, which is outside the main terminal. To get there once you’ve collected your luggage and cleared the customs area, you can simply call to order a free shuttle bus. Then exit the terminal in the direction of the car park, cross the road and go to the median strip collection point where we’ll pick you up and take you to our car hire branch. You can return your vehicle to the same place.

Explore Melbourne with your car hire

The ideal way to start sightseeing in Melbourne is to head to Federation Square just opposite Flinders Street Station. It’s where you’ll find the Ian Potter Centre and the Australian Centre for the Moving Image. You can drive a few miles from the CBD to the Royal Botanic Gardens on the Yarra River with its Aboriginal Heritage Walk. The Melbourne Museum and Royal Exhibition is another major landmark, and you can drive to one of the city’s eastern outlying suburbs and view Captain Cook’s Cottage in Fitzroy Gardens, transported brick by brick from Yorkshire.
