Warren was an excellent tour guide. Provided the perfect blend of knowledge about the spots and relaxing time on the bus. Went out of his way to add 2 extra stops and we got to see a koala climbing in the natural habitat. We are visiting from the US and this has been one of our favorite tours in Australia. Thanks very much Warren for a wonderful day and an unforgettable experience.

We had an amazing time on the Great Ocean Road tour. Our tour guide, Nick, was exceptional—his extensive knowledge and insights greatly enhanced the experience. The tour itself is incredible and shouldn't be missed if you have time while visiting Melbourne.

Overall a nice one-day trip. My favorite parts were the Forest Walk & 12 Apostles. We travelled with Harley who was pretty helpful. Drawback: Our bus accidentally broke down before we even reached Torquay. The tour managed to send us to Torquay but we have to wait for 1.5 hours for the new bus. The traveling after that seemed a bit rush yet we didn't miss any stop. The morning tea was replaced with muffins & fruit juice boxes.

Nick, our tour guide, was great, informative and knowledgeable. We saw kangaroos and koalas. One thing to consider is this is a small bus and not a larger tour bus that telesales on a winding road for hours so those of you who easily get car sick might consider this before being on a small bus all day long. Otherwise, it was a great day despite the rain!

Bruna_K

Niko was amazing!! He was very kind and knowledgeable. We saw Coalas AND Kangaroos, everyone was stoked. We got a bit of rain but this didn’t took his energy away. And great music selection all the way. Thank you Nik, it was great.

Andrea_J

Warren was extremely engaging and told us about the history behind all the places we visited. We also made extra pitstops to see some koalas and kangaroos which made it extra special. Also, I made some lifelong friends during the course of the trip! Thank you Warren for the wonderful hospitality throughout the trip!

We had the BEST day yesterday. Our guide Warren was incredible and couldn't do enough for us. He really went above and beyond for us and even stopped at extra stops to show us kangaroos and koalas. The views were incredible and I can not recommend this tour enough. Thank you so much to Warren for making our day so wonderful and showing us how awesome the Great Ocean Road really is.

I waited at the pickup location for an hour and was never picked up or contacted by the your operator. I called the parent company but they were unable to help. I requested a refund but it was too late to rebook with another company and I missed the experience.

Byron_D

Memorable moments: Witnessing the majestic cliffs, waves plus the beautiful sunset at the 12 Apostles attest of God’s wonderful creation & power! We had a pleasant & enjoyable trip because our tour guide Warren does his job superbly well. He goes far & beyond. He took us to additional places to see, socialised with us (tourists), cracked hilarious jokes - i never met any tourist guide as well rounded as Warren.
