Metered fare with live tariff. Calculated using Victorian CPVV (Day Rate) tariffs plus live route data. Tolls passed through at cost.

Booking a Mildura taxi: what to know
A Mildura to Melbourne road transfer is roughly 540 km and six to nine hours depending on the route and rest stops. Because of the distance, these are arranged days in advance as a fixed price rather than on the meter — the number does not change if the trip runs long.
Many Mildura passengers are travelling for medical appointments in Melbourne. MPTP-subsidised fares are accepted and a receipt is provided for reimbursement claims. Call 0421 807 027 so the correct vehicle and paperwork are organised before the day.
If you are flying, Mildura Airport has direct services to Melbourne and a road transfer is usually only worth it when the flight schedule doesn't suit, when you are travelling with a lot of luggage, or when a return the same day is needed. We will tell you honestly which makes sense for your trip.
Local Sunraysia trips — Irymple, Red Cliffs, Merbein, the hospital, the riverfront — are all covered from the same booking line, and a return leg can be locked in at the same time as the outbound.
