Question 1

What are the major attractions in Melbourne?

Accepted Answer

If your trip to Melbourne is all booked but your travel itinerary is looking a bit empty, we can give you a few hints and tips.

This area is a magnet for lovers of paragliding. When planning your travel schedule, leave enough time for this popular activity, as well as a trip to Blanchard Springs Caverns and Crown Lake.

Question 2

What are the best road trip destinations near Melbourne?

Accepted Answer

With some terrific day trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it'd be much harder to explore everything that Mountain View, 18 miles away, has to offer. Ozark Folk Center State Park should be at the top of your list here. Blanchard Springs Caverns and Cash's White River Theater are awesome attractions too. Locals are also likely to point you toward Batesville, 25 miles away. If you can only see one attraction here, make sure it's Kennedy Park. (But we're also huge fans of Course at Eagle Mountain and Old Independence Regional Museum.)

Question 3

What kind of rental car should I get for Melbourne?

Accepted Answer

With your very own rental car, Melbourne is your oyster. People make their way to this delightful city for varying reasons, and here at CarRentals.com we have the ideal car for each of them. The top priority for large families is space (and legroom). Depending on the number of family members, that could mean anything from a full-size car to a 12-passenger van. Travelers watching their budget like the affordability of our smaller vehicles, such as an economy or compact car. If you're hoping to attract a few admiring glances in Melbourne, you could even peruse our special category for a vehicle that will make any car lover go all tingly with excitement.

Question 4

Should I get a luxury rental car in Melbourne?

Accepted Answer

First of all, there's a wide variety of both economy and high-end vehicles to rent in Melbourne. What you end up going with depends on how much you're willing to spend and the activities you've got planned. Specialty and prestige vehicles offer unparalleled comfort and class. If you want to indulge yourself, why not go for an SUV with all the bells and whistles, or perhaps a cushy medium-sized sedan? Alternatively, if you're just after something to get you around town as cheaply as possible, you're better off choosing a versatile compact vehicle (or something else that won't blow your budget).

Question 5

What side of the road do they drive on in Melbourne?

Accepted Answer

You'll be motoring along the right-hand side of the road in Melbourne. Even though the conditions may be similar to home, we suggest driving with extra care in places you've never been.

Question 6

Is it difficult to park in Melbourne?

Accepted Answer

Finding a parking space in Melbourne is a snap. You won't have to repeatedly go around the block in dense traffic here — and that's what the locals love about it. There's lots of on and off-street parking to take your pick of.

Question 7

Does Melbourne have peak-hour traffic?

Accepted Answer

As the population of Melbourne is about 1,800, you probably won't have much difficulty with traffic. That said, major roads usually get busy before and after work hours, so you may want to avoid driving then.

Question 8

Question 9

What happens if I get a speeding fine while driving a rental car in Izard County?

Question 10

Is it illegal to use a cell phone while driving in Melbourne?

Accepted Answer

It's not illegal, but we don't recommend it. For safety's sake, it's a good idea to wait until you've reached your destination before picking up your phone.

What are the rules around drink driving in Melbourne?

Accepted Answer

In Melbourne, it is an offence to operate a vehicle with a BAC (blood alcohol content) in excess of 0.08%. If you're planning to have a drink or two with lunch or dinner, it's a good idea to leave the rental car behind.
