The Great Ocean Road Trip

Published on Jul, 2022

Our small group tour was as amazing as our driver Walter. We left early and got back late and covered so many picturesque locations along The Great Ocean Road. Walter communicated each stop highlights and time allocation clearly and it was just the right amount of time to see and enjoy and photograph each place and then head to the next. Walter told us he liked to get going early to beat the crowd and true to his word our captured photos were pristine shots of natural environments before most folks arrived. Beach walks, caves, rain forest walk, a stop at a little shopping village and a view of Bells Beach surfers were all part of our experience as well as the option of a helicopter trip over London Bridge and the Apostles. We took up the offer and saw a whale and calf as a bonus. We would completely recommend Walter and Around and About Tours and look forward to a future trip with them on our next visit to Melbourne. Heather and Jeff

Highly recommended day on Great Ocean Road
