The full day tour was jam packed with many different sights to see. Even though travelling time was long between stops, our tour guide James kept us interested and entertained while on the road. He was like a walking encyclopaedia on the history of Australia, always having a story or interesting tidbit of information to share about the different places, sights, and wildlife we saw on the day. He also kept us punctual when getting back to the bus and this allowed us to be able to visit more places of which he had handpicked that were not included in the standard itinerary. James also went out of his way to help us spot koalas and kangaroos while on the journey. For our tour bus, he also brought us to a super cool spot which had what looked like more than a hundred kangaroos. Overall, I really enjoyed this tour and would like to give kudos to our tour guide James for the exemplary service he provided during this trip.

James was our guide for this tour and he is very knowledgeable, he provided insights on the history of each town that we bypass and made the extra effort for additional stops for photo taking and wild koala & kangaroo spotting!
Would highly recommend this tour to anyone considering, there was never a dull moment with James as he is constantly engaging.

Guide in the tour plays important role for a company success! The program a bit rush because long day of Great Ocean road too far for return. Tour guide James is an engetic and passionate man who always keep us happy, try his best to let us see wild Walaby, Kangaroo and Koala, he also try his best to make us punctual and give us more time for sightseeing. Give suggestion what to eat and telling story during driving.

Nice trip. James was such an amazing tour guide, really good with my 7y/o curious, chatty daughter, he answered all her questions and talking to her. The trip was really long but so much pleasant thanks to James and his knowledge and random facts.

Our driver Andrew was very friendly and informative along the way. The weather was perfect which made the day extra special. The Great Ocean Rd and the 12 Apostles have been on my bucket list for many years and it didn’t disappoint. A long day but well worth it.

The tour overall was very well planned and all the sites looked amazing. James was our tour guide and he was able to provide several historical stories and scientific facts to provide context of each place we visited. I thought a full day tour would be exhausting but there were regular intervals for bathroom breaks, many small stops to view koalas and kangaroos in the wild, and enjoying the road.

Great tour! Our guide Burt was very friendly and knowledgeable about landmarks throughout the tour. There are plenty of stops along the way (lookout points to take pictures, Apollo Bay for lunch, beaches, forest walk, koala spotting, etc) that added to the experience of the tour. I would recommend sitting on the left side of the bus since you’ll only travel down the great ocean road on the way there (not back) so the left side will give you the best view possible! Overall great experience!

Driving through the countryside down to the Great Ocean Road to Apollo Bay and out to the 12 apostles, Glad to have ticked traveling on The Great Ocean Road and seeing the 12 Apostles off my list, It may be a long day but it was worth. Hats off to the Coach Staff.
