We had an amazing experience on The Great Ocean Road Tour! Our tour guide, William, was outstanding—friendly, knowledgeable, and very organized throughout the entire trip. He shared interesting facts and stories about each destination, making the journey both enjoyable and informative. William ensured that everyone was comfortable, kept the tour on schedule, and gave us enough time to enjoy the beautiful sights and take photos. His positive attitude and sense of humor made the experience even more memorable. The Great Ocean Road is absolutely stunning, and having William as our guide made the tour even better. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Melbourne. Thank you, William, for a fantastic day!

We had a great family visit to SEA LIFE Melbourne Aquarium. The kids loved the penguins, sharks, and underwater tunnel, and there were plenty of interactive exhibits to keep them entertained. The aquarium is clean, stroller-friendly, and easy to explore with children. It can get busy, but overall it’s a fun and educational attraction that’s well worth visiting for families with kids.

Tony was great driving us along the Great Ocean Road and back on the big bus, serving as driver, guide, photographer and timekeeper. Spotted wild koalas along the way. Itinerary was well spaced out, right amount of time for photos at each stop. Lunch at Apollo Bay was great, too bad it rained after lunch so didn’t get to explore much. We reached the 12 Apostles at the right timing, bright and sunny. Unfortunately, it rained heavily at Loch Ard Gorge, but stopped when we were at London Bridge, though the sky had turned gloomy by then. Overall, would recommend this tour for those that don’t opt to self drive the Great Ocean Road.

Tony was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable and helpful. He gave a thorough explanation throughout our whole 12 hours or so journey...it is such a delightful experience! Thank you for the memories!

Super recomendo este passeio de um dia! Saímos às 9h da manhã e voltamos ao centro de Melbourne às 21h30! A programação foi perfeita, e o motorista e guia Joe é muito profissional e atencioso. Ele nos acompanhou pessoalmente em cada ponto turístico, e enquanto dirigia, ele nos apresentava os locais em inglês. Ele é de Hong Kong, fala cantonês, mandarim e inglês. Suas explicações em inglês são muito detalhadas, e ele vive na Austrália há 25 anos, dirigindo com segurança! Tivemos muita sorte em encontrar um guia tão bom. Ele tirou fotos individuais para todos em cada parada e até nos filmou na ponte enquanto pegávamos o trem a vapor. Ele também é muito gentil com as crianças!!! Viajamos em um ônibus médio, com cerca de 20 pessoas no grupo! A primeira parada foi na fábrica de chocolate, onde ficamos por 40 minutos com degustação ilimitada de chocolate. A segunda parada foi para degustação de vinhos (custo extra de 15 AUD por pessoa), com duração de 30 minutos. Foram 5 tipos de vinho, cerca de dois goles de cada. Acho que esta parte do passeio não vale a pena pagar extra, talvez porque eu não seja uma especialista e não consegui notar nada de especial. Em seguida, foi o almoço, em uma pequena cidade rural, com opções de McDonald's e restaurantes chineses (custo extra). A maioria das pessoas escolheu o McDonald's. Ficamos por 40 minutos. Nosso horário para o trem a vapor era às 14h15. Tivemos sorte, pois o trem não atrasou e o tempo estava ótimo. O passeio durou cerca de meia hora. A escolha do assento é importante: sente-se à direita para ter a melhor vista do trem a vapor! Infelizmente, o tempo foi cronometrado com precisão, e não tivemos tempo para parar na loja de souvenirs para comprar cartões postais. Depois, fomos ao Parque de Coalas e Cangurus Mary. A diferença em relação aos zoológicos da cidade é que este é menor, mas permite alimentar e tocar os cangurus de perto. Este é um passeio opcional, custando 30 AUD por pessoa (preço de grupo), com duração de cerca de 45 minutos. Vale muito a pena a experiência! Todos se divertiram muito. A última parada foi para ver o retorno dos pinguins, com uma hora de duração, o que foi suficiente. Os pinguins só retornam aos seus ninhos após o pôr do sol, em grupos! Recomendo chegar cedo para garantir um bom lugar para fotos. Como fica no extremo sul de Melbourne, o clima é mais frio! Em resumo, o itinerário não é apertado, mas prepare-se para um longo tempo de viagem. Se você tiver a sorte de ter Joe como seu guia, será um dia maravilhoso!

So fun! first time experience and found it very fun! so many animals to see. worth getting there and sticking around to the after noon where the tigers and snow leopards were more active. Staff were very friendly as well.

Our tour guide, Curtis, was very enthusiastic. At first, he seemed a bit talkative, but he also gave us time to rest later on. The entire tour had plenty of time, and we never felt rushed, though some guests might have been a little late. The steam train experience was excellent; I was surprised we rode it for almost 45 minutes. I personally think most souvenirs aren't necessary to buy; it's better to use that time for photos and enjoying the scenery. When we went to see the penguins, I was surprised that the guide noticed I was wearing a skirt and asked if I was cold, even thoughtfully giving me a hand warmer. I'm not someone who gets cold easily, so I immediately gave the hand warmer to my friend who does. I highly recommend buying the deluxe seats because you'll be incredibly close to the penguins, almost within arm's reach, as you watch them come ashore and then return. It's absolutely worth it. Even more surprising was the sky full of stars; the scenery combined with the penguins was truly a perfect 100. Many thanks to the tour for this wonderful experience.

I really enjoyed this tour and appreciated how much effort Matt put into making the experience fun and informative. He shared lots of interesting information about Melbourne and Phillip Island, plus gave plenty of helpful recommendations before the tour ended. The itinerary was well-planned, and we had enough time to enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. Matt even managed to squeeze in some extra spots so we could see kangaroos, wallabies, and other animals along the way. The Puffing Billy Railway ride was a nice experience, the views at The Nobbies during sunset were absolutely beautiful, and the little penguins were incredibly cute!! 😄

A fantastic trip! We were greeted By our driver John. He is exceptional and funny. Friendly and always joyful. Made the whole bus enjoyed the journey. Pick up time was early but it was worth it. Smooth journey. We really enjoyed this trip. Just be mindful and stick to the the time given by your driver. We had to be waiting for half hour in the bus by 2 girls post-ski. It will be good if every member of the bus plans their time well. Overall, John made it all better!! Thank you John!!
