Overview

Your tour departs Melbourne bright and early with our sights set on beating the crowds at the Great Ocean Roads' famous 12 Apostles. Here we enjoy a 1km stroll along the boardwalk while appreciating the limestone stacks and stunning views.

Our next stop, Gibson Steps, offers a unique 70m cliffside pathway down to the beach. Enjoy this beautiful beach and take all the time you need to get the perfect shot.

Next up, it’s time for a delicious lunch before heading to the Great Otway National Park. Enjoy a short but magical hike through ancient rainforests of thick ferns and large myrtle beech to see one of the Otways' pristine waterfalls (where the bigger bus companies don’t visit).

We visit the giants of the forest at the Californian Redwoods before continuing our drive along the Great Ocean Road to the tranquil village of Apollo Bay and Kennett River; home to native koalas, king parrots and kangaroos.

Our private tours are entirely adjustable to suit you and your group’s needs.

Loved everything about it,it felt like a close friend was showing me around and not a complete stranger. I wish we were staying longer so we could do P Island as well. 10/10 experience and will do it again when back. PAT C is a great guy and a great host, thank you so much for allowing us to see your version of this part of the world.

Great tour with our driver/ guide Lorinda. We had a small bus for max 9 persons which was ideal. Very professional and friendly Lorinda showed us all the perfect spots where you could see the best views. Very good lunch restaurant. Lorinda told us a lot of information about the neighbourhood and plants and animals. She even knew the spots most likely to see koala's in the wild. Highly recommended.

That was a fabulous day out! From coast to country and back again, finishing at the 12 apostles, which I’ve always wanted to see. Our tour host was really accommodating: as we were a small group, he even made a couple of impromptu stops and detours, particularly in our search to see a koala.. we saw 2!! Plenty of coffee, vegan choc balls and the van really is comfortable. Lunch at Apollo Bay, glass of wine and even got some gift shopping in. Definitely recommend.

Almost a personalized tour when Michael, our guide, attentively took the group further down the beaten path in Otways National Park, showed and explained in the most entertaining way. You would not want to miss this tour as a small group is a plus.
