We had a fantastic time on this private tour. Being able to set our own pace and avoid the large tourist bus crowds made all the difference. The vehicle was incredibly comfortable, and our guide was wonderful—very knowledgeable about the local area and happy to answer all our questions. It felt like a truly VIP experience from start to finish. Highly recommend if you want a stress-free, high-quality day trip.

We did a private Great Ocean Road tour with 5 of us and honestly, it was one of the best days out. Paid $1,500 total, which was about $300 each, and got a full 10-hour run covering 550 km. What made it different from the regular coach tours was that our guide actually knew where to go to avoid the crowds. Yeah, the Twelve Apostles and those main spots were packed, but he took us to these hidden viewpoints that hardly anyone knew about. That's where the real magic was. No rushing around either. We had proper time at each spot to just soak it in and take photos without feeling pressured. The guide was really friendly and knew his stuff. Whole thing felt relaxed and scenic—exactly what a road trip should be. If you're thinking about doing the Great Ocean Road, definitely go private if you can. Way better than being stuck on a bus with 40 other people. Would do it again in a heartbeat.

12 Apostles are a must see!! Our guide Ravi took us to many out of the way places. Saw koalas and kangaroos. And an ice cream cone to end the day!!

I did the Great Ocean Road & 12 Apostles private tour in December and it was absolutely flawless from hotel pickup to the end. This is hands down the best private tour I’ve ever experienced—and I travel a lot with very high standards. Our driver was exceptional: friendly, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. He never rushed us, made sure we saw everything, and even went out of his way to help us spot kangaroos. We felt like we spent the day with a respectful friend showing us his city, not a tour guide. The Great Ocean Road and 12 Apostles were breathtaking. I can’t recommend this company enough—if you’re booking this tour, book with them.

This was not a luxury tour. We were picked up by a dirty old Toyota Rav4, very far from luxury mentioned in the description. Also, I driver had limited English and almost didn't say a word so there was no guide or any explanation of what we visited. On top, he drove aggressively passing the speed limit many times, doing 160kmh on a 100kmh limit and 130kmh hour on a 80kmh limit. We overtook traffic on a curve and on double solid lines. Upon request he stopped this behaviour. The only thing that happened according the description is that we went to the places mentioned. No luxury, dirty old car, no guide or information, not what we paid for.

I would give the tour 6 stars if I could. Ray was the best tour guide we had in Australia so far. Knowledgeable, professional, and caring. We had a great day exploring.

The trip was a one day trip to the Great ocean road. The guide named Ray and he took us to several locations within the area. The good thing for us is that we could see and spot kangaroos, cockatoos and other local animals in close interaction. This was amazing for us. Ray definitely delivered his service well.
