Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Very reliable service. Given the lack of options from Melbourne airport the sky bus is one of the best ways to get to the CBD. They are frequent and easy to book on the app. It is reliant on Melbourne traffic through so you need to allow yourself plenty of time in case the sky bus is stuck due to peak hour or an accident. As far as I know they don't have access to emergency lanes to get anyone to the airport so you're stuck! Sometimes it's very difficult to hear and understand the drivers particularly over the noise of the bus so it would be good if they had screens that tell passengers where the bus is stopping. The only problem I have is as a Vline user, I get the sky bus into southern cross and the bus depot is at the very opposite end of the vline platforms. Vline trains run hourly on some lines which means even if I get into the station by the time i hustle over to platform 16 I still miss the train and then have to wait another hour. Given the infrequency of vline services it would be amazing if one day we can get dropped off closer to those far platforms. Pie in the sky thinking but just putting it out there !

    I loved the fact that had we been a few minutes late due to flights, the driver was prepared to phone us to see how close we were to the departure point in case he could wait. Also, I left my mobile on the bus, it had slipped down a seat. The kind driver rendezvoused with us later to return it.

    Dhillon Charter made our trip easy and stress-free! We used their Melbourne bus hire service, and it was fantastic. The bus was clean, the driver was friendly, and everything went smoothly. Great service and fair prices. Highly recommend Dhillon Charter for Melbourne bus hire!

    We pre-booked our airport transfer but they were a no show. We approached one of their coaches at the airport who was loading airline staff and was told we were not on his sheet and he would contact the depot. Approx 15 minutes later we received a phone call to say they did not have any busses available until later in the afternoon so if we wanted to wait 3 hours fine otherwise they could refund the fee. We are still waiting for the refund.

    A group of 35 of us attended Golden Plains festival over the March long weekend, and hired a bus to take us there and pick us up, as it's almost 2 hours out of Melbourne and we would prefer not to drive. I have used the company for a festival before and it was ok, however this time was absolutely fantastic. We had a friendly and helpful driver Shaun, who arrived to pick us up on time and drove us in safely, waiting patiently while we had to make a stop before the festival. On the way home he picked us up on time as well and even suggested we have a food stop and again waited for us.
    The price was reasonable, it worked out about $40 return for each person. I would recommend Melbourne Bus Hires and Charters for any self organised tour.
