5.00I had a great day on the Great Ocean Road tour today! Our guide and driver, Peter, was pleasant, informative, and engaging. He frequently went out of his way to find wildlife for the group; thanks to his efforts, we spotted three koalas and many kangaroos. The small group size made the trip very efficient. Because we managed to avoid the large tourist crowds, we enjoyed less crowded viewpoints, which allowed for better photos and a much more relaxed experience. The ride itself was very comfortable in a premium small-group vehicle stocked with water. We highly recommend this tour!
Excellent Great Ocean Road tour

5.00We thoroughly enjoyed our trip. John was a great guide. We saw so much and the scenery was amazing. Stopping for delicious icecream on the way home was the icing on the cake. Doing the small group tour was so much better. Thanks John.

Reverse Great Ocean Road Tour with Peter

5.00We did the Reverse Great Ocean Road Tour with Peter, and honestly, he made the whole experience even better. He had the perfect balance of sharing interesting knowledge and giving us quiet time to just take in the views—never overwhelming, but always insightful when it mattered. What really stood out was how attentive he was throughout the day. He consistently checked in to make sure everyone was comfortable, enjoying themselves, and not feeling rushed. It felt very personal and well-paced, which made a huge difference on such a long day. And a special mention to his very random music playlist—it somehow worked perfectly for the trip! It added such a fun, relaxed vibe to the drive and made the whole journey even more memorable. The small touches didn’t go unnoticed either—providing chips, bottled water, and even a little souvenir for each of us was such a thoughtful gesture and really elevated the whole experience. If you’re considering this tour, I’d definitely recommend going with Peter. He creates a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere while still making sure you get the most out of the experience.
