Looking for events & day trips from Mount Martha? Taxi Peninsula picks up from any address in Mount Martha 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.
The Esplanade is scenic but narrow and slow in summer, when beachgoers park along both sides and pedestrians cross often. The Nepean Highway is usually the quicker route north to Mornington and south to Safety Beach and Dromana, with Peninsula Link reachable via the Mornington area. Hilly side streets and steep driveways can make kerbside pick-ups awkward, so a flatter meeting point may be better for wheelchair loading. There is no rail line; Frankston station is the nearest metropolitan connection. Beach box areas along the Esplanade have limited stopping space, so a car park entrance is usually a better meeting point.

ما الأسئلة الأخرى التي يطرحها الناس؟
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 mount martha
How long does it take from Mount Martha to وسط مدينة ملبورن (CBD)?
About 65 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 Mount Martha?
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 Mount Martha?
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.
My Mount Martha home has a steep driveway. Can a wheelchair taxi still pick me up?
Often yes, but it helps to tell us about the slope when booking. The driver will look for the safest level spot to deploy the ramp or hoist, which might be at the top or bottom of the driveway or on the street. If there is a flatter area nearby, mention it in the booking notes.
Can you drop us at The Briars in Mount Martha?
Yes. The Briars is on the Nepean Highway and we can take you there for a walk, an event or a visit to the homestead and bring you back later. Book your return at a set time, or use the pick up when ready option and let us know when you are finished.
Is there a train from Mount Martha?
No, Mount Martha has no train station. The nearest metropolitan rail is Frankston station on the Frankston line, which is why many residents book a taxi there before heading into the city. For hospital appointments or flights, a direct door-to-door trip is often less tiring than changing between car and train.
