Wonderful Tour

Published on Feb, 2025

Full day of great experiences, best to do reverse trip to give you plenty of time at each stop. Eleven on the bus makes loading quick and comfortable.Our bus driver Chris was the best ,with outstanding local knowledge and so proud of his country

The BEST way to see all the Great Ocean Road sights!

Published on Feb, 2025

Full day of seeing all the prominent sights that Victoria has to offer along the Great Ocean Road! Very interesting and lots to see…. All detailed perfectly by our guide Peter. He really made sure that we had a fabulous day out! Highly recommended!

Fun day to the 12 Apostles

Published on Feb, 2025

Kevin picked me up on time, early in fact, from my hotel in Melbourne at 6:30 AM. It was a long day but it went so well. There was time to doze on the trip to the 12 Apostles. We stopped for breakfast at a small cafe after 1.5 hours. We missed the crowds. There were multiple stops on the way back along the coast. Kevin kept us informed about the all important toilet stops and lunch places. Be aware that there are no toilets at the 12 Apostles so go when your guide tells you. We saw koalas and kookaburras. I traveled solo but the other passengers in the van were friendly so it made for a fun day out of Melbourne.

Wonderful day

Published on Feb, 2025

It was a long day, but it did not seem long. The guide was fun...Pete. he kept us engaged as we stopped several times to enjoy the sites. I recommend this outting.

Great Tour

Published on Feb, 2025

Sam is a legend. We enjoyed seeing the highlights of the Great Ocean Road, and loved spotting local wildlife (a koala, two kookaburras, and plenty of kangaroos).
