SHARED TRANSPORTATION / SHUTTLE SERVICE
Multiple hiring is when two or more hirers use the same taxi or commercial passenger vehicle at the same time (in this instance, Great Ocean Walk transport shuttle service). Because the hirers are giving up their exclusive use of the taxi-cab or commercial passenger vehicle, the fare is discounted for each hirer. Regulation requires each hirer to agree to allow the driver to accept other hirings. The hirer has the right to refuse to allow the driver to multiple hire if they would prefer not to share. Multiple hirings must start at the same time and all hirers must be travelling to destinations in the same general direction. The maximum fare that can be charged to each hirer is 75% of the standard authorised fare for the hirer's section of the journey.
Benefits include:

"We are so grateful to the team at Ride With Us who helped ensure we could seamlessly enjoy a small part of the spectacular Great Ocean Walk. Great communication, lovely conversation and an all round fantastic experience. Lindon also gave us great insider tips about the best campsites (see pictures!!) and things to do in the Great Ocean Road area. Thank you Ride With Us Team!”

"I would like to provide feedback on the service provided to the Victorian Walking Club for our 8 day walk along the Great Ocean Walk. The club and as organiser of the walk would like to thank Ride With Us for the exceptional service provided on our walk. We had specific requirements that other companies could not meet and Ride With Us worked closely with me to meet our specific requirements – the bus was always on time at the points specified and the driver, Callum, was absolutely fantastic. Please pass on this feedback to Callum. I could not praise Ride With Us or the driver more – fabulous customer service. I would recommend the company to anyone!!”
