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!

A must if you have a full day time. long driving trip but has interim stops here and there. it was led by Chris who is native to this land and shares his experiences around the area. best to book it for a day with clear weather!

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

Fortunately, the weather was very good for the Great Ocean Road one-day tour, and I also met the best tour guide Jimmy!!! Jimmy is a responsible, considerate and warm tour guide. He not only arranged all the itineraries for us and introduced them to us, but also took us to see the rainforest, introduced the special features of the trees, and took us to find wild koalas and kangaroos. This day completely satisfied my imagination of Australia, and I could also feel Jimmy's passion for work and his love for the places he visited. Thank you Jimmy, and I hope everything goes well for Jimmy! (PS: I have strongly recommended the Great Ocean Road one-day reverse tour project and Jimmy tour guide to my friends^^)

Review for: Great Ocean Road Small Groups Tour

The journey in the van was smooth and enjoyable. The time spent at each stop was ideal because if it’s too long then we wouldn’t be able to go to many spots. The weather was great and sunny which made the views very nice.

This was so worth the time and money. Mark was our driver/tour guide. He was wonderful and did such a great job communicating about the area and the ongoing plan. He was clear and easy to understand. We had a wonderful time. we saw and experience so much along the journey of the great Ocean road. All the animals were a bonus! Highly recommend! Thanx so much.

Review for: Great Ocean Road Small Groups Tour

We saw everything on the itinerary and missed most of the crowds. There was enough time at each stop and due to the small group of 11, no waiting for late people.. We even saw a couple of wild koalas. Herb our guide was excellent and informative.I had an enjoyable day and I'd thoroughly recommend.

Review for: Great Ocean Road Small Groups Tour

Each attraction offers breathtaking scenery, but due to the packed itinerary, most stops allow for less than 30 minutes of sightseeing. If time permits, arranging a 2-day tour of the Great Ocean Road would provide a more relaxed experience. Our guide, Jimmy, was very friendly and accommodating. We were lucky enough to spot a wild koala during the trip. Moreover, at the group’s request, the guide made a special detour on the way back to visit a golf course where we could see wild kangaroos. As a solo traveler, I also met friendly group members who helped me take photos during the trip. This tour is highly recommended for those without their own transportation or for solo travelers.

Good to know

Things you should know:

  • There will be a stop in a Café to grab coffee and breakfast in the morning, and at lunchtime, the tour guide will recommend a couple of restaurant options in a coastal town.
  • We expect to return to the city between 6:30 - 7:00 pm.
  • The weather on the Great Ocean Road is a bit unpredictable. Please check the Princetown/Victoria forecast the day before the tour and dressing accordingly.
  • There is no room for luggage in the minibus.
