Beautiful - Our tour was canceled. However, Colin the owner of this company worked some magic and put us with another tour company for the same tour. We are thankful because this tour is not to be missed. Absolutely beautiful scenery.

A must see tour on a life time ! - It was very beautiful nature 12 apostles amazing and I’m very thankful to the Lord. It’s a must see on travel. The London bridge, nice beautiful scenic view. A kangaroo cross the road instantly, I only caught seeing the back part of the kangaroo. Mr Hugh the tour guide was knowledgeable, and smart. He rerouted us while the weather did not cooperate and some place got flooded. Towards the end, the weather got better and the more it so gorgeous and beautiful nice day. I had so much

Although it wasn't with... - Although it wasn't with the original operator, the partner group ran it very smoothly. Thankyou Colin (original operator) for clear communication regarding the transition to the partner operator. The day was smooth with no interruptions. Weather held off and was able to view the attractions well.

The team did a good job... - The team did a good job coming up with an alternative route due to recent flooding. It was disappointing though because we didn't get a chance to see any wild animals as a result. This was no fault of the tour group - just mother nature getting in the way. the driver was experienced, safe and respectful of all the customers.

Challenging start great finish - A bit disappointed to start with as did not stop at wildlife viewing areas listed in itinerary. Worth provider looking at that as felt mid-sold. However after lunch at Apollo bay we were taken to see seals, then to a eucalyptus glade to see three koalas and loads of cockatoos. Then via the forest for more koalas and finally the wonderful natural rock formation in the bay. Thought we would not see kangaroos but driver managed to find a mob of about ten of them in Simpson I think it was called. So great afternoon in the end and lovely group

What all people come to... - What all people come to Australia, see kangaroo and koala. So we booked this trip. We were excited to see Kangaroo and Koala, but we didn’t see anything. Very disappointed.

Not what it says it is - Not what it advertised. Did not follow itinery. No wildlife stops. Said no koalas at Kennet river which I know to be untrue so did not stop. Very long drive with limited walking. Not what expected limited photo ops and a lot of drivel at times about holiday homes. Nice beaches but that was all we saw for hours of driving. Find a tour that makes an effort to give you what you paid for would be my advice

Do NOT Book this tour! - DO NOT BOOK THIS TOUR! Sorry I am too angry right now as my day is ruined! I waited at the pick up point before the schedule and stayed longer after that only to find out that the tour got cancelled! Totally unacceptable! I flew 16+ hours to have this tour and my flight back home is tomorrow! And my dream of seeing the Great Ocean and 12 Apostles is no longer coming true in this trip! I’m so upset and this has soured my Melbourne trip! I hope the tour operator/owner and Viator get their karma and lose their business! No consideration to tourist’s time and plans. Shame on you! Hope you lose your business!
