• Melbourne - Get ready for an exciting journey! The bus is on its way, so gather your belongings, embrace the thrill, and let’s embark on this adventure!
• WWI Memorial - We pause to stretch our legs and enjoy a delightful morning tea.
• Twelve Apostles - We take the opportunity to admire the stunning limestone stack formations with few other tourists around. If you’re eager to soar above the Apostles, consider adding a helicopter ride to your experience—this tour is perfect for you!

Taking your time to stroll along the boardwalks and capture stunning photos of the Twelve Apostles in the morning sun is simply breathtaking.

• Loch Ard Gorge - Also located in the National Park, we venture down to Loch Ard Gorge, the site of one of Australia’s most famous shipwrecks. Hear the dramatic tale of Tom and Eva. Take a moment to walk on the beach and feel the sand between your toes, or explore the top of the Gorge to discover the Island Archway and Razorback rock formations.
• Great Otway National Park - Explore the enchanting Great Otway National Park, where giant ferns brush against you, waterfalls cascade through mossy gullies, and ancient trees rise like nature’s cathedral. Every step feels like a walk through a rainforest fairytale—don’t be surprised if a koala peers down from the treetops.
• Wye River - During the journey, we’ll make stops to search for koalas in the wild. As they are truly wild, we can’t guarantee their location, but our knowledgeable guides know the best spots to find them.
• Great Ocean Road Memorial Archway - A monument marking the original starting point of the Great Ocean Road.

After capturing photos at the iconic Memorial Arch and learning about the history of the soldiers who built this road in honor of their fallen comrades, we’ll continue through more breathtaking views (with plenty of photo stops!)
