5.00Amazing energy, explanation, company and advice of the driver Luke. The tour was amazing, my parents do not speak English but they enjoy it a lot as Luke try to explain clearly and it was easy to translate them. Everyone in the bus was really nice and we really enjoy our trip. 🙏
A great day trip

5.00Our tour guy was very friendly and professional. Long day trip, but it's worth it! We saw even wild kangaroos and koalas on the way back. I also did a helicopter tour for 15 minutes( great view on 12 Apostles and Ocean Coast). Our day was very windy , be prepared!
A trip that could have been enhanced

4.00Great itinerary but a shame the coach was so poor. At the back, we froze in the morning and then it became so in tolerably hot. Unfortunately the driver John claimed he could not control the temperature so for 500k we traveled in discomfort.
Great experience

5.00I love that this experience had so much to offer. We saw and learned so much about Melbourne and the surrounding areas. The great ocean road is a must and our guide Elliot was incredible. He was very knowledgable and a great driver!

5.00Steve was an awesome tour guide, he was very knowledgeable and had lots of good (bad) dad jokes! I went solo and really enjoyed myself and even made friends with other people. Steve made everyone comfortable & he also was there to take photos, we ran late and he was happy to spend another hour with us. Would recommend this your tour to anyone!
A Very Lucky Tour

5.00I went on the tour on 29/10/2025, the weather is amazing, saw a mother Koala holding her baby on the tree, mobs of Kangaroo in the wild, everything just goes as we wanted on that tour. Ann is definitely a great tour guide, informative commentary along the way, filling in the void of the journey when needed, bringing us on a walk at Melba Gully, and helping us took photos. The eight apostles are still very much worth seeing ofc!

5.00This tour was brilliant - being a solo traveller from Perth, I booked this tour for my birthday on the 04NOV25. John was amazing - loved the fact that he is interested in other people and their jobs etc. he had a great sense of humour and was fantastic the whole day. I thoroughly enjoyed my 37th birthday in Victoria, on the Great Ocean Road, at the 12 Apostles and at all the small stops added into the day in between. John is knowledgeable and very good at his job - which made the day even more achievable. THANK YOU FOR AN UNFORGETTABLE 37TH BIRTHDAY John and the crew :) All the best.
