Bendigo uber/taxis

Hi all, my wife and I are coming to see Bill Bailey at Ulumbarra theater next week. We are planning to stay in a hotel local and I was wondering what your uber/taxis are like? Mainly how quick to get a service after booking and how late they run etc

If you're staying in the CBD it's walking distance. Otherwise everything is relatively timely and prices are not that different. They run 24/7.

Ulumbarra is very central so it's walkable and taxis and uber are plentiful. I only waited a long time once in the burbs ordering an uber for someone who needed one but in the city they're all over, I've never waited more than 5 mins.

Plenty of taxis / Ubers to get you back to the All Seasons.

Ulumbarra to all seasons is a 3.2km walk.

I used to live next to Ulumbarra ans have walked from an event at the All Seasons.
I recall it being less than an hour and quite good while walking with a few drinks under my belt.

Which hotel are you staying at? If you're somewhere like Barkly on View its like 200m to walk. But aside from that I've never paid much more than $15 for an uber from Spring Gully to the CBD which is probably about as far out as you'd want to stay

The team at the desk at All Seasons may even offer the courtesy bus to get you into the event if there's a few people staying there who are attending

Definitely not walking distance, but you'll easily get transport
