Melbourne Campervan Hire: Great Ocean Road, Grampians and Beyond
Quick summary: Melbourne campervan hire is the classic start to a Victorian road trip. Collect a campervan or motorhome near Melbourne Airport or in the suburbs, then head south-west to the Great Ocean Road, west to the Grampians, or take shorter trips to Phillip Island, the Yarra Valley and the Dandenong Ranges. Spend your city days on foot and by tram, as central Melbourne is hard work in a large vehicle. One-way hires to other Australian cities suit longer journeys.
