Getting across Melbourne’s CBD shouldn’t mean circling for parking or waiting on unreliable rideshare surge pricing. Eastern Taxi Melbourne’s City Transfers Melbourne service covers point-to-point trips across the city centre and surrounding suburbs, with a fixed fare agreed before you travel.
Where Our City Transfers Take You
Melbourne is Victoria’s capital and Australia’s second-largest city, and its CBD is compact but often congested — which is exactly where a pre-booked, fixed-fare taxi earns its keep. We regularly cover trips to Federation Square, the Melbourne CBD shopping and theatre districts, Docklands, and the inner-eastern suburbs.
Popular City Transfer Uses
- Shopping and dining trips around the CBD laneways and Bourke Street precinct.
- Theatre and event transport for evening shows, concerts, and sporting fixtures.
- Meeting-to-meeting travel for anyone with a schedule spanning multiple CBD locations.
- Visitor transport to Melbourne’s key attractions, including the Melbourne Museum and Federation Square’s Ian Potter Centre.
From the Airport Into the City
If your city transfer starts at the airport, pair it with our dedicated Airport Transfer Melbourne service — the same driver and fixed-fare approach applies whether you’re travelling 5km across town or 23km in from Melbourne Airport. For details on Melbourne’s key visitor precincts, the Visit Melbourne tourism site is a good reference for planning your stops.
Choose Your Ride
A Standard Sedan Taxi is ideal for a quick solo or two-person city trip, while our Premium Silver Cab suits clients who want extra comfort for a longer day of appointments. Travelling with more people or luggage? Our Station Wagon (SUV) gives you the extra space.

No, our pricing is based on the actual distance and time of your trip, with no minimum-fare penalty for short city hops.
Can I book a city transfer that includes several stops?
Yes, let us know your planned stops when booking and we’ll factor waiting time into the quoted fare.
