Why Rupertswood visitors and residents book a Rupertswood taxi service
Rupertswood is best known for its grand mansion, where the story of the Ashes began, and for the school and parkland around it. The area forms part of Sunbury, which sits on the north-western fringe of Melbourne. It feels rural, but the airport lies close at hand. A Rupertswood taxi service is a convenient way to connect the two.
Our drivers collect passengers across the Rupertswood area and its neighbouring estates. Booking ahead means a car is already assigned before you leave, and a message then lists the time, the address and the vehicle.
Many customers are school families, tourists and commuters. Therefore, we prepare for event days, term dates and early starts alike.
Getting around Rupertswood: Sunbury Road, Wallan Road and the Calder Freeway
Sunbury Road and Wallan Road lead to Sunbury’s centre, while the Calder Freeway links the area to the city. In addition, Sunbury station gives a regular train service to Southern Cross. Consequently, a cab is mostly used for the airport and late evenings.
Country-style roads have few street lights, and wildlife is common. Similarly, strong winds can bring down branches across lanes. Our drivers go carefully, so you reach your destination safely.

Everyday trips our Rupertswood taxi service handles
Visitors book rides from the airport to the mansion for tours, weddings and school events. Because the airport is near, the fare stays reasonable. A frequent request is a morning pickup from the terminal with a return in the evening.
Locals ride to the Sunbury shops, to medical visits and to cafes. After an evening function, a pre-booked cab beats a dark country drive. Please book ahead for school open days.
Wedding parties can hire the maxi cab, which seats up to eleven and looks smart in photos.
Airport transfers from Rupertswood to Tullamarine
Melbourne Airport is about 19 kilometres from Rupertswood, and the drive usually takes around 22 minutes when roads are quiet. However, freeway traffic can slow things down at peak times, so we always build in a buffer.
For a domestic flight, plan to leave about two and a half hours before departure. For an international flight, allow an extra hour. Share your flight number, and we will check for delays before the driver sets out. Read more about our airport transfer service or check terminals on the Melbourne Airport website.
When you land, your driver tracks your arrival and meets you once you have your bags. As a result, you skip the rank queue and go straight home.
Travelling with skis, golf clubs or a bike box? Say so when you book. We will send a car with enough room, and the driver helps you load before leaving Rupertswood.
Your driver arrives a few minutes early and waits at the agreed spot. Share a mobile number when you book, so you can reach each other quickly if the entrance is hard to spot.
Late arrivals are just as easy. If your plane lands after midnight, we still meet you, because we run around the clock and track the flight. As a result, you do not need to wait for a rank or a rideshare surge.
From Rupertswood, drivers usually take the Calder Freeway and the Tullamarine Freeway. Therefore, the trip is brief, and morning freeway traffic is the only real risk.
