Great Adventure

5.00We had a fantastic experience on the Go West Tours Great Ocean Road Classic Day Tour. Our guide, Rheys, made the entire journey memorable with his energy, knowledge, and sense of humor. It’s a long, full-day trip, but the pacing was well thought out with plenty of stops to stretch your legs and take in the scenery. The coastal views were stunning, and the transition into the rainforest added a completely different, lush atmosphere to the day. Along the way, we spotted a variety of native birds and even a koala, which was a real highlight. Walking along the beach and through the rainforest gave us a chance to truly experience the landscape up close. Rheys kept things entertaining throughout—his best Crocodile Dundee impression while attempting to call up some kangaroos was a fun touch, even if they had already turned in for the evening. His enthusiasm and effort didn’t go unnoticed. Overall, this is a fast-paced but incredibly rewarding tour that covers a lot of ground and showcases some of Australia’s most beautiful natural sights. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to see the Great Ocean Road in a single, well-organized day. Life is a Beach Fran

5.00Four us (myself, a man, and three women), all of us elderly. Our tour guide was named Bob with Go West tours, for the great ocean road (GOR) tour. I am 86 years old, I have visited 35 countries, I have taken many tours. I can say without hesitation that this was the very best tour I have ever taken! Bob was knowledgeable, funny, and endlessly kind to us. He insisted on helping my sister-in-law Geysa, [who walks very little and with great difficulty] walk from the GOR visitor's center to the viewing platform of the Apostles, and back (see Bob and Geysa in the photo below). This was an act of kindness that we have always found typical of the Aussies - they are a great people. This company has employees who have been a cut above for many years. Don't hesitate to take ANY GO West tour.
Fabulous day out!

5.00We had a terrific day out under the excellent care of Bob, our driver and guide. Every bit of the day was excellent, even the weather cooperated. Bob gave us every opportunity and plenty of time to enjoy the sights at each stop along the way. His explanations put everything in good local and historical context, which we appreciated. The stops for lunch and dinner provided good options for a meal of our choice. We saw fabulous geography as well as koalas, kangaroos and various birds. It was a very long day but so worth it. Highly recommended!

5.00We went on the Great Ocean Road tour and it was indeed great. Our tour guide Bob was very personable and went out of his way to ensure we had a good time. He made a couple of unscheduled stops so we could see wildlife and always had a "plan B" if they did not cooperate! The scenery is spectacular and the stops very enjoyable, if a bit strenuous at times (in particular the rainforest walk, which is steep). Overall , a wonderful experience and great value.
