Melbourne's public transport system is called the Met, which includes trams, trains and buses on the one ticket. Melbourne has one of the largest tram and light-rail networks in the world.
By Taxi : Taxis are numerous but expensive.
By Tram : The free City Circle Tram travels around the city and ties up with other trams, trains and light rail routes around inner Melbourne city. The journey takes you past arcades, shopping malls and some major attractions. Just wait at any of the specially marked tram stops on Flinders, Spencer, LaTrobe or Spring Sts. Trams run in both directions every ten minutes. Daily 10am-sunset Trams run in both directions every ten minutes, seven days a week.
The Metcard - iit's easy to use. The card operates on all Met Trains, Trams and Buses. You can buy a various assortment of cards from ‘short trips’, ‘2 hour trips’, ‘daily’, ‘weekly’. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

There are regular trains which run daily between Melbourne and Ballarat. On weekdays V/Line buses travel from Ballarat to Warrnambool and Ballarat Coachlines have daily services to Melbourne Airport. Bellarine Transit Buses travel from Geelong to Torquay and Jan Juc. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

It's a great way to see the Great Ocean Road. It's all inclusive and very laid back.
The driver Will is great and well organized.
Highly recommended Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

Whilst Victoria has one of the best public transport systems in Australia, sadly that is not saying a great deal, with limited trainlines connecting the main towns and cities and a complementing bus service, which generally links with arrivals of trains at the more remote destinations. There are some local, privately owned initiatives which also try to improve connections - twice-weekly buses are not unusual in rural Victoria!
Melbourne and suburbs are well serviced - extensive commuter train lines running in several directions, 50 - 60kms out of the CBD.
If you are going Melbourne-Geelong: Melbourne-Ballarat: Melbourne-Bendigo: Melbourne-Traralgon: Melbourne- Wadonga, then you have a relatively straight forward run. Variations on a theme from that, and you start to struggle as far as the trains are concerned.
I've divided Victoria into sections, and will use the same for transport tips. Leave a Comment Theme: Other
