Unforgettable unmissable experience with a brilliant guide called Rhysilliant tour g - A friend back in Ireland told us The Great Ocean Road Tour out of Melbourne is "a must". How right she was! We had one of the most memorable experiences in our life. We have been on trips before when a guide doesn't quite deliver . Not so today . Rhys was just on top of his game from 7.30 am when he picked us up until we got back to Melbourne at 9 pm. And the unqualified success of our thoroughly enjoyable day on one of the most spectacular coastlines in the world was down to Rhys's professionalism that was reflected in his encyclopaediac knowledge,grasp of nature and history, the "product" he was showcasing and story telling combined with his anticipation of all our needs, not least toilet breaks, lunch and dinner tips, and ensuring that none of our party of just over twenty got lost. There were many highlights too numerous to mention. Like many others we took the option ( at reasonable extra cost) of the helicopter ride over "The Twelve Apostles" on the Southern Ocean. And what an exhilarating experience that was. The highlight of the day ! But peering into that Gorge amid the Ocean breakers also took the breath away.

Fantastic experience, highly recommended! - This is a 5 Star rate but it actually has to be a 10!! Our guide Bluey (aka Tom) made this day trip to the Great Ocean Road an unforgettable adventure! Getting us to the most beatiful spots and back home safely, he shared his vast knowledge about local flora, fauna, history and geology with us in the most entertaining way! What an amazing day, stunning scenery and lovely people! By any means: try to get a tour with Bluey! 😃 Karen

Amazing scenery - A great day out exploring the Great Ocean Road. It was a big day but well worth it. After leaving Melbourne we stopped at Torquay for morning tea. Lunch was our choice at Apollo Bay. And then we headed to Port Campbell National Park. The sun was shining as we arrived at the 12 Apostles. Then we arrived at Loch Ard Gorge where the sun was just setting. Amazing scenery. Thanks Graeme our driver/guide for a great day out.

Travel the Great Ocean Road...... you just have to do it! - Driver (Ben) was wonderful and had plenty of stories and facts to provide the travellers. Plenty of stops along the way with just enough time in each to either get those wonderful photos, some food/drink, tourist trinkets or just have a chat with other travellers.
