  A very long day so it's a bit uncomfortable sitting for several hours on the coach, but well worth the trip. Spectacular scenery, and always enough time to walk to lookouts, take photos and get back to the coach on time. Vance the driver/guide was knowledgeable and friendly. A bonus was London Bridge which many tours don't go to, and another was seeing koalas in the wild. Highly recommended.

  

  

• Nice and exciting trip down the Great Ocean Road - unfortunately in the old and noisy bus

  We had a wonderful long trip down the Great Ocean Tour, until we reached the peak point which of course was the twelve apostles. Totally magical. There were some nice stops on the trip, which made you not feel that the trip was so long down there. Our guide Vance was informative and very good at managing our large group, so everyone came on time and the trip continued as planned. He also showed us real wild koalas and not anyone who was in a Sanctuary. The biggest and only minus of the whole experience was the old bus. The seating comfort was really bad, but the worst was the Vance microphone that laughed and noisy, which meant we didn’t get all the information. However, we could hear most of it where those behind had difficulty hearing. We also experienced that the bus could not start, but that he also got fixed. It's just not good enough for provider side

  Gorgeous scenery everywhere but time allotted at stops was way too short. I’m a really fast walker and i didnt make it to quite a few points. Seeing wild koala mama with her joey was the highlight.

  Very amazing experience in a beautiful area of Victoria. The program was absolutely perfect with the most iconic spot of the great ocean road. The guide/driver was kind, friendly and always available to answer questions.

  Our driver cum guide Vance provides useful information along the way and ensures the group meets the various timelines. He also volunteered to take photos for the group and crack jokes to make the journey lively.

• Great experience, wrong company

  The views during the tour were amazing and worth the time. But...the "bus" was very uncomfortable and during such a long trip it makes a difference. The driver barely spoke English and was a bit passive-aggresive towards some passengers.

• Bus and Coach Charter: Would pick a different company next time!

  We joined a Great Ocean Road day trip from Melbourne with Bus and Coach Charter, and while there were a few positives, the overall experience wasn’t great. Positives: Our guide, Vance, did his best to share meaningful information throughout the drive, and the selection of stops and viewpoints was well planned. The tour price was also quite affordable. Negatives: The coach was completely full, and since we were picked up last, we had to squeeze into the very back row. Unless you have a window seat on the left side, you won’t see much of the scenery, which defeated a lot of the purpose of the trip. Getting on and off the bus from the last row took around three minutes each time, cutting into the already short stops. The tour commentary was bilingual (English and Chinese). Normally that wouldn’t be a problem, but several passengers kept chatting loudly during the explanations, making it difficult to understand the guide. The biggest issue happened on the return to Melbourne. The bus started slowing down for no clear reason, and after a break at a gas station it broke down completely. After several attempts, the driver managed to get it running again, but we arrived back in Melbourne with a significant delay. Summary: Although there were some good aspects, we’d recommend choosing a different company. With so many Great Ocean Road tours available, it’s worth selecting one with a more reliable bus and a better chance of enjoying the scenery.

  It was a great experience. Our captain Tony was informative and helpful. He took us all the places and even changed the trip itinerary as per adverse weather to cover all spots and avoided rains.
