Amazing day trip - We enjoyed a wonderful tour with our guide, Peter. With an 11 hour tour & 2 teenage children, it could have been a tricky day, but we were all thoroughly entertained, saw so many great things and even learnt lots from Peter. If you book only 1 day trip from Melbourne, make it this one

Perfect Day on the Great Ocean Road - It 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!

Book it! - If 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!

A lovely day trip - This 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!! - Comfortable luxury coach traveling with around 10 -12 stops including 12 Apostles, 2 shipwreck sites, several ocean view stops and narration about Australian history. Also saw and photographed koalas and kangaroos up close. Highly recommended!!

Beautiful experience, recommend it if you have little time - Having 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! - This 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.
