I really had a blast during my trip and I would like to commend Adan for all the great tips and information during our trip! I learned alot! It was really an amazing trip and I would truly recommend this trip if youre going to melbourne. Thank you once again adan for a comforting/relaxing trip. It may be a 1 day trip but it seems that everything is not in a rush and the flow of the tour is perfect! Cheers!!

We went on the Great Ocean Road Reverse tour with Nial (sorry for the spelling). We had a wonderful day, and Nial was simply incredible!! He was a wealth of information and was a very safe driver during the long, windy road drive. Thank you for a great tour.

Chris P aka Kiwi is clearly passionate about his job. He was very informative and kept me engaged throughout the journey with his interesting facts and stories with a little humour thrown in here and there! The views are lovely and I can imagine they are even better on a sunnier day.
