Public transport in Australia’s cities is clean, efficient and widely used by everyone. Some routes, such as Melbourne’s City Circle Tram, are completely free. In Sydney, there are caps to weekly transport rates, so you will never pay more than the maximum weekly fare, regardless of how often you use the transport network. Children generally pay a concession fee across all public transport systems. Regional towns may have fewer public transport services, so hiring a car may be advisable. Most buses, metros, trains and trams can accommodate prams and other access requirements, making them a great option for getting around without the hassle of finding parking.
