The Great Ocean Road tour was excellent. It is a long day it definitely worth seeing this part of Australia. Our guide Gary was great take sure we were comfortable and that we saw some Australian wildlife. He is very knowledgeable about everything Australia including history and he is a great narrator. All stops were well planned. He was certain to make sire all guests were comfortable announcing extra stops of needed for bathroom breaks which fortunately we did not need so we could keep going. We loved our trip with him!! The scenery is fantastic!

What made the trip interesting was the tour guide Fred's bonhomie and light hearted commentary. He was full of anecdotes and stories about incidents on the great ocean road, gave us shipwreck stories which made the sightseeing great fun. He motivated us by saying we could be a page in a book He was writing about his trips. He dis not get tired of explaining everything to us, waited for us to see the magpies& koalas and was an ocean of information about the great ocean road.

Seeing the apostles was of course the highlight, but our guide kept us so entertained with stories, local music and poems, and local history that he became a highlight as well.
