1. Tram: You'll find them right outside your front door! Trams are a convenient way to get around Melbourne, and Southbank is well-connected. You can catch trams on various routes that pass through or near Southbank, including routes 12, 58, 96, and 109. These trams can take you to many popular attractions in the city.



2. Train: Southbank is close to the Southern Cross Station, one of Melbourne's major train stations. You can catch a tram directly to the station. From here, you can catch suburban trains to various parts of Melbourne and regional areas.



3. Bus: Melbourne has an extensive bus network. While trams and trains are often more convenient, there are bus services that can take you to places not accessible by tram or train.



4. Walking: You are literally in the heart of Southbank. It's a very pedestrian-friendly area, and many of Melbourne's top attractions are within walking distance. You can take a leisurely stroll along the Yarra River, visit the Crown Entertainment Complex, explore the Melbourne Arts Precinct, or head to the CBD.

8. Car Rental: If you plan to explore areas outside of Melbourne's city centre, you can rent a car from various rental agencies in the city. There's a car park included with your booking so this might be a great option for you.
