I booked this trip back in Scotland when I knew I would be spending a few nights in Melbourne. The trip was very well organised from start to finish, with lots of varied experiences beyond the stunning scenery (seeing koalas in the wild was an absolute highlight). There was a good balance between number of stops and time to take in the sights. Peter was a wonderful guide, very welcoming and knowledgeable. I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to explore this part of the world.

Peter arrived on time to picked us up. He drives carefully and explained to us the different land marks along the road. He always try to answer the query we asked. The scenery is gorgeous..

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!
