Perfect Day on the Great Ocean Road
Susan R,Mar 17, 2026

5.00It was a wonderful day. First of all, our guide Peter communicated with me the evening before and the morning of, so there were no questions about connecting with him for the day. He picked us up in a nice, clean, comfortable luxury van at the appointed time. He managed the day perfectly, avoiding the crush of crowds at the major sites. The Ocean Road is an amazing drive filled with awe inspiring views and overlooks. He also took us to a beautiful rain forest gully. He found a wonderful lunch spot for us, and he helped us find koalas in the wild and kangaroos! His knowledge of Australia, the road and the region added greatly to our day. It was a full day of amazing experiences. We highly recommend!

5.00If I could have rated this experience 10 Stars I would have! Peter was our tour guide and driver for the day. He was incredibly knowledgeable. Any question we asked he knew the answer to and gave us a full background of the history of Melbourne and The local fauna Flora and attractions. He is extremely personable and easy to talk to. He's a careful, safe driver and made excellent restaurant recommendations for when we were in Apollo Bay. This was an incredible experience as it was just the four of us. Much more personalized than a giant tour bus full of people. Highly recommended!
Great experience, the...

5.00This was a great way to explore part of Australia (that we probably wouldn’t have been able to do on our own). It’s a long day - about 12 hours from start to finish. However, it was well-paced. Peter was a great guide and his music playlist was great. One small note - there are two guest seats near the front of the vehicle that are lovely. The rest of the seats are average. I was in the back with one leg jammed up on the wheel base. Other than that, a lovely day out.
Well worth it!!

Beautiful experience, recommend it if you have little time

5.00Having a day available in Melbourne I was undecided about the tour to do, I couldn't make a better choice, even if it's a bit long it's absolutely worth it! Malvern entertained us throughout the journey and showed us lots of animals.
Great tour, fantastic experience!

5.00This tour was super awesome to do privately as we were on a cruise ship. Our driver was very flexible and made it a great day. The sights were incredible but maybe bring some bug spray as the flies are intense.
The BEST way to see the Great Ocean Road

5.00We had the best time on our tour with Melvin. He picked us up on time, had a clean and comfortable van, and kept us entertained during the drive out to the Great Ocean Road. We appreciated that he adjusted his plan to accommodate the preferences of our group (our kids wanted to explore tidal pools on a beach over going to the chocolate factory) and he made sure that we arrived at the various locations during periods of low crowds and plenty of parking. This was such a great way to experience the Great Ocean Road…looking out the window, not almost getting into accidents, learning about Australia from a fascinating tour guide, and receiving expert tips for the rest of our Australian adventure.
