This was a great trip made very entertaining by our guide who also very accommodating and helped change our accommodation very last minute! It’s an amazing trip along great ocean rd but the Grampians was a big bonus!

Our guide is professional and the scenes are terrific. First day’s schedule is a bit rush but can visit most of the spots. Second day’s morning hike is remarkable. Highly recommend.

They are very accomodating in picking us up in Geelong area as special request. Even in the events of oversighted to pick us up in Geelong, they quickly arranged an Uber to pick us up to join the rest of them at Anglesea. The rest of the trip was great, easy and friendly driver to show us the beauty Great Ocean Road and Grampians have to offer.
