Melbourne Great Ocean Road Day Tour

Experience the beauty of the Great Ocean Road scenic view with 12 Apostles and Loch Ard gorge with our proffesional small group family-oriented day tour company where we can relax and enjoy the ride while sharing some interesting history about this magnificent oceanic coastal road that people talk about.
Unlike other tour companies that only focus on "showing the view and go home", we offer family-oriented interaction that makes our tour feels like you are going away with your own family. We try to make our tour fun, exciting, and we cater for each, and everyone's need while maintaining the quality and efficiency of our tour. (prepare for some group singing!)

Furthermore, our small group tour will ensure more personalised service compared to big group tour, and our small but comfortable minibus will be able to access points of attractions/interests where big buses cannot access.

Watch out for some kangaroos and koalas too!

Morning Aussie style billy tea and snacks are included

Anglesea

Anglesea, Victoria

Anglesea is the second coastal town along the Great Ocean Road. These are quite a number of wild kangaroos here especially at one of the public golf-course nearby. These kangaroos are often visible from the outside of the golf club. We will try to spot these beautiful jumpy marsupials.
Disclaimer: these are wild animals and can be anywhere, we cannot guarantee they will be there however from our experience we see them most of the time in the early morning.
