Great ocean road

A wonderful and awesome experience..love the wonder of nature and helicopters ride...special thanks to our Tour leader

A must do tour. Walter was a great...

Fredrick P, Oct 2017

A must do tour. Walter was a great guide and organised an excellent tour. This was a small group tour. We have been on the great ocean road a few times previously but none had the special stops we enjoyed on this tour. For example the rain forest stop and the stop to look fro koalas and feed the native parrots. Only one negative was the seats on the coach were a bit narrow and uncomfortable, considering it was a long day.
