What Makes Up the Templestowe Lower Price
Every part of the Templestowe Lower fare is in the fare box above, from the flag fall to the toll, so you can check the sum yourself. The typical total is the sum above rounded up to the next whole dollar, and the estimate runs from 5% under it to 15% over it, the same rule for every vehicle. A different pickup street, a detour or roadworks on the day, waiting time and extras such as a baby seat are what move a fare inside that estimate.
Your pickup time sets the rate, as the table by pickup time above shows, and your estimate uses the rate for the time you choose when you book. For a fixed price, call or email us and we will confirm it before your trip. No surge, no meter, no surprises.
An SUV from Templestowe Lower is typically $100 (estimate $95 – $115): the standard fare plus a $17.80 high occupancy surcharge. It seats four, like a sedan, with room for 4 large and 3 small bags. For five or more passengers take the maxi, which seats up to eleven and carries the same $17.80 surcharge, so it is also typically $100 (estimate $95 – $115). Travelling with young children? A baby seat is $40 per seat, per trip, fitted before your driver arrives, so tell us the age and weight of each child when you book.
Coming Back to Templestowe Lower from the Airport
Flying into Melbourne and heading to Templestowe Lower costs the same as the trip out, plus the $5.26 airport pickup fee the airport charges on every trip that starts there. We track your flight at no extra cost, so you are collected when you actually land.
Your driver collects you from the terminal your flight lands at: Terminal 1 for Qantas domestic, Terminal 2 for international flights, Terminal 3 for Virgin Australia and Terminal 4 for Jetstar and other low cost domestic airlines. Turn your phone on once you are off the plane and your driver confirms the meeting point. Bags on a domestic flight usually take 20 to 30 minutes, and an international arrival through customs takes longer, so book for your landing time and let the flight tracking do the rest.
If you would rather be met inside the terminal with a name sign than find your driver outside, meet and greet is $35 and covers an hour of waiting.
