This part of coastline use to be deep under water. The stone formed about 200 million years ago from ocean debris, such as plant and fish matter that floated to the bottom of the really deep ocean. Also keep a look out for the tiny and adorable Fairy Penguins as there are thousands of them around the area too!

The Great Ocean Road trip is an absolute must-do for anyone visiting Australia! The stunning ocean views, iconic rock formations, and picturesque beaches make for a truly unforgettable experience. We stopped at the Twelve Apostles, London Bridge, and Loch Ard Gorge, and each spot was more breathtaking than the last. The coastal towns along the way, like Apollo Bay and Port Fairy, were charming and full of character. If you're looking for a road trip that combines natural beauty, adventure, and relaxation, the Great Ocean Road is the perfect choice.

The Great Ocean Road was nothing short of breathtaking. Every curve revealed postcard-perfect coastal views, from rugged limestone cliffs to endless stretches of golden sand. We stopped at iconic spots like the Twelve Apostles, where the sea breeze carried the scent of salt and freedom. Koalas lounged lazily in eucalyptus trees at Kennett River, while wild parrots swooped in for a quick hello. Lunch in a charming seaside town gave us the chance to enjoy fresh fish and chips with a view that made us linger just a little too long. It felt like driving through a living painting.

We had an unforgettable experience exploring the Great Ocean Road with our family, all thanks to an outstanding tour operator. The journey was perfectly paced with stunning coastal views, wildlife sightings, and well-timed stops. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the trip fun for all ages. The vehicle was clean and comfortable, and small thoughtful touches like snacks and water made a big difference. Highlights included the 12 Apostles, spotting koalas in the wild, and learning about the region’s history. Highly recommend this tour – professional, personal, and absolutely worth every moment. A five-star experience!

Driving the Great Ocean Road was one of the most breathtaking experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment we set off, every bend in the road revealed another postcard-perfect view – towering cliffs, endless blue ocean, and charming little seaside towns. The highlight, of course, was the Twelve Apostles, which were even more awe-inspiring in person than any photo could capture. The route felt like a perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. We stopped for fresh seafood in Apollo Bay, spotted wild koalas lounging in the trees at Kennett River, and wandered along hidden beaches that felt like our own private paradise. The road itself is a joy to drive, with smooth curves that hug the coastline and plenty of well-placed lookouts to pull over and soak it all in. If you love nature, stunning views, and a road trip you’ll remember forever, this is the one. Worth every kilometre – I’d do it again in a heartbeat!

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 *5-STAR REVIEW* I had an amazing time on the Great Ocean Road tour with AR TOURS. The trip was well-organized, and our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and full of fun stories about the region’s history, wildlife, and hidden gems. We visited stunning spots like the Twelve Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge, and the Otway Rainforest, with plenty of time for photos and exploring. The small group made it personal, and the bus was clean and comfortable. Loved the surprise stops, especially seeing wild koalas! Highly recommend this operator for anyone wanting a relaxed, scenic, and memorable coastal adventure.
