Colac rests on the shores of Victoria’s largest natural freshwater lake, ringed by rich volcanic plains and gentle hills. The town hums with markets, historic pubs, and quiet streets that lead straight to the Otways’ misty forests. Whether you’re here for the lake’s birdlife, a weekend of fishing, or a quick stop on the way to the Great Ocean Road, Torquay Taxi keeps travel simple. Our drivers cut through backroads to Red Rock lookout or glide along the Princes Highway to Melbourne without a single wrong turn.

Why We’re the Local Favourite

We started on the coast and stretched inland because Colac needed reliable wheels. Now we move nurses to the hospital before dawn, students to the TAFE campus, and families to the botanic gardens for Sunday picnics. The fleet fits every trip: four-seat sedans for solo errands, eight-seat vans for sports teams heading to the leisure centre, and hatchbacks with fold-flat seats for Bunnings runs. Every vehicle is serviced on schedule, wiped down between fares, and stocked with water bottles on hot afternoons.

Road sense matters on highways shared with road trains and tourist coaches. Drivers carry heavy-vehicle awareness training, check Main Roads alerts for fog on the plains, and keep tyre pressures perfect for sudden summer storms. Full insurance, real-time tracking, and Working with Children accreditation come standard—no exceptions.

How to Book a Ride

Call 03 5218 5935 and a Colac local will answer. Give your address—maybe the caravan park by the lake or the newsagent on Murray Street—and we’ll tell you exactly when the car pulls up. In-town pickups average eight minutes; airport transfers to Tullamarine lock in the night before with a courtesy text at 5 a.m.

Secure a cab online in under a minute. Enter pickup, drop-off, and time on our website form; we confirm by phone if the Colac Showgrounds are closed for set-up. Fares are posted clearly: short rides around town start low, fixed prices cover Geelong hospitals or Warrnambool stations. Pay by card in the meter, cash at the door, or open a monthly account for farm managers and real-estate agents.

Destinations We Know Best

Dawn anglers book lifts to the lake’s eastern shore where the bream bite best. From there it’s a quick run to the Colac Botanic Gardens—150 years old, with towering elms and a café serving scones warm from the oven. Saturday markets spill across Memorial Square; we’ll wait while you fill bags with smoked trout and homemade relish.

History buffs head to the heritage walk past bluestone churches and the old railway station, now a visitor centre. Kids love the aquatic centre’s waterslides; we time pickups so parents avoid the post-school rush. The Otway hinterland starts ten minutes south—drop-offs at the start of the Forrest rail trail let mountain bikers ride 30 kilometres through tree-fern tunnels while we collect them, muddy and grinning at the brewery.

Corporate travellers rely on us for punctual runs to the industrial estate or the saleyards at dawn. Wedding parties book multiple cars for ceremonies at the lake rotunda; we line up quietly, doors open, ribbons optional. Festival season brings the Colac Kana carnival—late-night returns keep revellers off the road and tents intact.

Torquay Taxi grew from surf shuttles to cover the whole southwest because towns like Colac deserve the same straightforward service. We keep fares honest, cars spotless, and conversation optional—some passengers want quiet, others want the quickest route to the best pie in town. Call 03 5218 5935 or fill out the online form whenever you’re ready to roll. Colac is wide open, and we know every corner.
