This was an excellent trip that covered the main Great Ocean Road attractions. Our guide Peter managed the trip very well and gave us so much history and facts along the way. I recommend this. Thank you for the memories.

Peter the driver and guide was very informative and knowledgeable about the tour. He gave us plenty of rest stops and good advice about our safety throughout the day. We would definitely recommend the company for a day out whilst visiting Melbourne Steve and Tricia Fort Saskatchewan Canada

Great trip! Beautiful sites, and Peter was very attentive to our needs, both the need to be comfortable and the need to see cute koalas and kangaroos! He's very knowledgeable and I recommend this tour and company highly!

You will be picked up early in the morning in front of your apartment. We bought breakfast at a bakery in a city on the way and went straight to the 12 Apostles without any traffic. I was impressed by the spectacular view that made me want to look at it forever. Then we go around some view points. Lunch was short, but the scallop pie I recommended was hearty and delicious. It was a great Monday, not only to see a few koalas in the wild, but also to stop by a golf course with wild kangaroos. I was glad to make this tour without having to rent a car myself along the curvy Great Ocean Road. Thank you, Peter!

Lots of amazing views along Great Ocean Road, with several stops for photos. Saw koalas resting in trees, & lots of kangaroos. Delicious lunch at George’s! Prompt & knowledgeable guide! Not even the rain could put a damper on this day!

Peter had incredible knowledge of Melbourne and the great ocean road and narrated throughout the tour. Despite the weather not being on our side, we still had a great trip with amazing views and managed to see Koloa’s, kangaroos and even some dolphins. Really great trip and highly recommend!

Great day out amazing landscape. Regular toilet stops and food options available. Tour guide Marvin was very informative and really took care of us, having a small group we were able to spend more time for photo opportunities. Pick up was right out side my apartment and was dropped off to my appointment. Would recommend.

Our guide Melvin was awesome. His tour was very informative and well paced to see all the awesome sights and animals. We spent just the right amount of time at each stop and never felt rushed. We really enjoyed seeing the koalas and kangaroos. His driving was excellent and he made sure everyone was comfortable especially on the very winding road sections. The large van was comfortable and the WiFi was a great added bonus.
