Review for: Great Ocean Road Small Groups Tour

This reversed tour is well planned and we don't have to squeeze with many tourists and also avoided the afternoon sun. The tour is a little schedule packed but we managed to cover many places and lookouts. Also managed to spot Koalas. Thanks to our friendly guide Mark!

Had a fantastic experience on the Great Ocean Road tour! We were able to see all the must-visit spots along the route. Our guide, James, was incredibly charismatic and made sure everyone in the group was having a great time. He also knew how to avoid the crowds, taking us to the best viewpoints where we could really enjoy the scenery to ourselves. Highly recommend this tour!

Review for: Great Ocean Road Small Groups Tour

The guide gave us excellent guidance, and the trip was very rewarding with so much to see. We got to see koalas and kangaroos, which was a highlight. The weather started off rainy and windy, but by the end it cleared up and turned beautiful.

Review for: Great Ocean Road Small Groups Tour

I took this tour last Saturday! I truly believe choosing this tour was the right decision. Great sceneries, so cute wildlife, nice shops, and Mr. James the perfect guide & driver! It was all super amazing!! I am Japanese not very good at English. But I had a great time and laughed, he always cared about everyone. And surprisingly, his drive was safe and punctual. I could go back to Japan without any regrets. However, I want to take this tour again! And I appreciate everyone who took this tour with me. They were so friendly. A good tour attracts good people. I recommend this tour!

Review for: Great Ocean Road Small Groups Tour

This one-day reverse Great Ocean Road trip was amazing! The whole process was very comfortable, and the experience was excellent, especially the tour guide Jimmy, who is Taiwanese and very friendly. The entire time, and I mean the ENTIRE time!, he was very enthusiastic and helpful, and also very humorous. He communicated with us in both English and Mandarin and was very patient! My daughter and I were both very happy and satisfied!
