About

The Great Ocean Road is called ‘Great’ for a reason, and this tour will show you why!

You’ll be collected from Melbourne’s CBD and whisked off to experience one of the world’s most scenic roads for a full day. Your bus will be fully air-conditioned as you breeze along the coastline, and your guide will have all your questions answered.

See koalas up close on a fun forest walk, and stretch your eyesight to the top of some of the planet’s tallest trees. See wipeouts, and hopefully some success stories, at Torquay Surf Beach, before a visit to the stunning Loch Ard Gorge, site of the Shipwreck Coast’s most famous shipping disaster.

Stand in awe of the 12 Apostles – you might need some time to take them in. These incredible rock stacks soar majestically from the Southern Ocean on Victoria’s crashing coastline. Minutes away, time and the weather have sculpted and honed the incredible Gibson Steps into a spectacular natural wonder and photo opportunity.
