Nice tour to visiting Twelve Apostles and Loch Ard George from Melbourne instead of self-drive. And we are excited to spot a few koalas and kangaroos during our trip

A long day but full of regular and interesting stops. Peter was a fantastic driver and tour guide - true Aussie spirit.

I recently took my family on an unforgettable adventure along Victoria’s pride and joy — The Great Ocean Road — and we were absolutely mesmerised from start to finish. Our tour guide, Peter, made the experience even better with his friendly nature and genuinely accommodating approach. He felt more like a local friend showing us around than a guide.We even enjoyed spotting koalas and kangaroos in the wild, topped off with a delightful visit to the Great Ocean Road Chocolaterie.

We had Peter who was great. He made sure that we all had a really good time with his laidback attitude but also great knowledge and expertise!

We had a lovely day visiting all the sites outlined and seeing koalas and kangaroos in their natural habitats. The views along the coast are stunning. Peter was our tour guide and he was very well informed and kept us interested all day long. Very considerate and pleasant.

My family took Lux- The Great Ocean Road day tour, and our trip was absolutely fantastic. Our tour guide, Peter, was incredibly friendly and accommodating, consistently going above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible. The bus was comfortable and even had USB charging ports, which was a great convenience. Complimentary water bottles were also provided. Overall, it was a wonderful and well‑organized tour that exceeded our expectations. 10 ⭐️

My wife and I really enjoyed this trip exploring the scenic Great Coast road. There we many stop offs of interest, and despite the very windy conditions we managed to grab some great pictures. Our guide, Melvin, was very knowledgeable of the whole area and provided us with lots of information and historical facts. A long day but worth it
