By Air

Tullamarine Airport in Melbourne is the most accessible national/international airport closest to Bendigo.

Arrive at Melbourne Tullamarine Airport.

Just outside the airport luggage collection area, you can book a Skybus into Melbourne, with an arrival at Southern Cross Railway Station (20 minute bus-ride).
On arrival at Southern Cross Railway Station, catch a train to Bendigo. See "By Train" below.

If you arrive later, you can either stay at the airport - the Parkroyal Melbourne Hotel is right at the airport and is very convenient, either for the Bendigo Airport Service or for the Skybus into Melbourne – or you can travel into Melbourne via the Skybus.  There are several hotels near Southern Cross Railway Station – you can search for these via Trip Advisor or one of the other internet hotel booking agencies.
