1.00The pick up bus was late for almost an hour. That is why we reached the City at 10pm. The itinerary was good but theres no Lord arc George. This is my 3rd time to booked the GOR adventure, but this one failed me. The time alloted for each spots: Choco Factory -15mins; Light House - 20mins; Apollo Bay; 60mine (including late lunch); 12 Apostles - 40mins; Razor back - 10mins. I recommend the other GOR tour but not this one.
Good

5.00I couldn’t fault this tour. We had an amazing day, which as well as seeing the spectacular coastal resorts and the 12 apostles, we spotted 2 koalas and also visited the Razorback and London Bridge. Jo was a great guide providing just the right amount of factual info with quiet periods. It was a long day - 14 hours- but I wouldn’t have missed anyone it. Thank you Jo.
Good branding.

5.00It's a good marketing to brand to call it the 12 Apostles. People will buy the "come on". It's really impressive the structure.
Unique experience! recommend!

5.00This is one day trip. But people like old friends, because of the tour guide know how to set the right mood. And really details abt the landmarks on the road. Stronglly recommend the guide whose name is Can Yang. Let him sing a song and dance. He is the best singer on the Great Ocean Road.
Amazing Trip

5.00This tour was absolutely incredible! From start to finish, everything was well-organized, and our driver was both professional and attentive, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience for everyone. The journey along the Great Ocean Road was breathtaking, with stunning coastal views at every stop. Morning tea in Anglesea was a lovely touch, and visiting landmarks like the Split Point Lighthouse, Memorial Arch, and the iconic Twelve Apostles made for unforgettable memories. A highlight for me was spotting koalas in the wild near River Road—such a unique experience! Loch Ard Gorge was another stunning location with its dramatic cliffs and fascinating history. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore the beauty of the Great Ocean Road without the hassle of driving. A perfect day filled with nature, history, and fantastic scenery!
