Directions

TRANSPORT FROM AIRPORT TO OUR LOCATION

1. Taxi/Uber - this will cost about AUD$55-60 for a one way trip to our apartment, with Uber costing slightly more (Uber used to be cheaper but they recently changed all airport pickups to UberBlacks and removed the UberX option so prices are higher now). This is probably the fastest and most direct way to reach our apartment, and travel time is approximately 25 minutes.

2. Skybus - when you reach the international airport, look out for signs directing you to the Skybus terminal. You will be able to purchase tickets from the terminal for this shuttle, which brings passengers from the airport directly to Southern Cross Station in the city. From Southern Cross Station, our apartment is just 2 blocks uphill, about a 7 minute walk away. A one way ticket costs about AUD$18, and travel time from the airport to Southern Cross station is also about 25 minutes. 

3. Starbus - if you search for "Starbus Melbourne Airport Shuttle" on the internet, you can find the website for the Starbus, which is much like the Skybus, except that the bus is able to drop you off directly at our apartment. You will also have to book tickets in advance. Simply head to the Starbus website and select "Melbourne CBD" under "please click on your destination below". Follow the steps and you will be directed to a booking page where you have to fill up details. Under "Destination Hotel or Address", select the option "Not Listed See Address Below", and enter our address:

199 William Street 
Melbourne
Victoria VIC3000

A return trip is about AUD$30 and is slightly cheaper than the Skybus, with the only issue being that you have to book these tickets online in advance. If you are looking for the cheapest and most convenient way to get to our apartment, we highly suggest booking tickets for the Starbus. Travel time is slightly longer as the bus drops off other passengers at different locations within the CBD.
