Great wildlife and scenery - It was a great trip, filled with scenery and wildlife. We were able to see wild platypuses, as well as stunning views along the coast on the Great Ocean Road. The additional side trip (extra add on) to Wildlife Wonders, at the recommendation of our guide, was well worth it and a highlight of our entire trip to Australia. We had originally signed on a group trip, but the other couple cancelled so they gave us a private trip rather than cancel us. Excellent stay in Forrest at a little country inn, very cozy little place with cockatoos in the garden.

Solo adventurer disappointment - This trip is not for one solo adult, Very disappointed that I could not go on my own for $444.00 as priced I was required to go as a couple and then the trip was going to cost $888.00.
