Our 7-seaters from Melbourne Airport fit the whole crew, (almost) everything you packed and still leave room for those cool-climate pinots clinking home from the valley.

Everything’s within reach, and it’s all worth the drive
Pack the bags, load the crew and bring an appetite. Melbourne’s surrounds are genuinely enormous, and a 7-seater rental from Melbourne Airport means you show up to all of it:
30 min
Yarra Valley — Cellar doors, farmgate produce and rolling vineyard views. Better with the whole crew along for the ride.
1 hr south
Mornington Peninsula — Hot springs, ocean beaches and wineries in the same postcode. Pack for all three.
1.5 hrs south-west
Great Ocean Road — One of the world’s great drives, better when nobody’s squashed in a hatchback.
1.5 hrs south-east
Phillip Island — Penguin parade, surf beaches and the Grand Prix Circuit are one way to earn your road trip credentials.
2 hrs north-east
High Country — Alpine villages, mountain trails and the kind of scenery that makes you pull over.
2.5 hrs west
Grampians — Dramatic sandstone ranges, Aboriginal rock art and waterfalls. The kind of landscapes that deserve a big arrival.
