Looking for events & day trips from Dromana? Taxi Peninsula picks up from any address in Dromana in a wheelchair accessible taxi with a ramp or hoist, four-point wheelchair restraints and a driver trained to help you in and out safely.
Point Nepean Road through Dromana carries heavy holiday traffic in summer, with camping grounds and beach parking along the foreshore. The Mornington Peninsula Freeway bypasses the town and is usually faster for trips north to Frankston and Melbourne. Arthurs Seat Road is steep and winding, so allow extra time and expect slow vehicles. Pick-ups at the foreshore are easiest at a defined spot such as a car park entry or the pier area. There is no train line on this side of the Peninsula. Off-season, the town is far quieter and pick-ups along the main street are straightforward.

Τι άλλο ρωτούν συχνά;
Can you pick us up after the game or concert?
Yes. Book a return trip and agree a meeting point near the venue when you book. Crowds and road closures can make stadium and arena pick-ups slow, so keep your phone switched on and let the driver know when you are leaving. If the event runs late, call us and we will adjust the pick-up.
Do you go to the races at Flemington and Caulfield?
Yes. We take passengers from the Peninsula and Frankston to Flemington and Caulfield, as well as to Mornington Racecourse and Cranbourne. Big race days bring heavy traffic and busy drop-off areas, so book well ahead and allow extra time. Groups can travel together in the Maxi.
Can a wheelchair user come to an event with friends?
Yes. Our wheelchair accessible van carries one wheelchair plus four seated passengers, and the Maxi WAT carries two wheelchairs plus six seated passengers. Both have four-point restraints and lap-sash seatbelts, so a wheelchair user can travel in the same vehicle as friends or family to the game, concert or show.
Can you plan a day trip around the Peninsula for us?
We can help you shape a simple day out, such as a drive along the bay to Sorrento, lunch in Red Hill and a stop at Arthurs Seat. Tell us what interests your group, any mobility needs and how long you want to be out, and we will suggest a plan and a suitable vehicle.
How do we book an event trip?
Use the online form, which takes about two minutes, or ring us with the event, the venue, the number of passengers and when you want collecting afterwards. An SMS or email confirms the booking. The booking form shows a fare estimate, and we can provide a fixed quote on request for planned outings.
Questions about events & day trips from dromana
How long does it take from Dromana to Κέντρο της Μελβούρνης (CBD)?
About 75 minutes without traffic. We add time for loading and securing your wheelchair, and for peak-hour traffic, when we plan your pick-up.
How much does it cost for events & day trips from Dromana?
Fares depend on distance, time of day and waiting time. The booking form shows an estimate, or ask us for a fixed quote.
Can you pick me up from my home, a hospital or an aged-care home in Dromana?
Yes. We pick up from any address — homes, hospitals, clinics, aged-care homes and day programs — and help you from the door to the vehicle.
Can you take us up Arthurs Seat from Dromana?
Yes. We can drop you at the Arthurs Seat Eagle base station or at the summit area, and pick you up again later. The road is steep and winding, so we plan a little extra time. If someone in your group uses a wheelchair, our accessible vehicles can do the trip comfortably.
Do you pick up from the Dromana foreshore camping grounds?
We do. Give us your site area or a clear meeting point such as the camping ground entrance, because foreshore grounds can be crowded in summer and site numbers are hard to find at night. Mention any luggage or eskies so we send a vehicle with enough room.
Is it worth booking ahead for a winery trip from Dromana to Red Hill?
It is, particularly on weekends and in summer when cellar doors and restaurants are busy and cars are in high demand. Book both legs at once so your ride home is secured. Groups can share the Maxi WAT, which takes six seated passengers plus two wheelchairs.
