About This Tour
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.
