Amazing tour of the Great Ocean Road - What an amazing experience! The itinerary was perfect, doing the Great Ocean Road backwards by starting at the Twelve Apostles is definitely the way to go, and each stop was amazing. We were even able to find koalas and get up close with kangaroos along the way! What made the tour really special was our guide, Reece. He was incredibly knowledgeable about everything along the way and was cracking jokes the whole time to keep everyone entertained. He even gave us tips about what to do with the rest of our time in Melbourne.

100% Recommend :D - Overall an excellent experience. Pickup was right on time and the host had just the right balance. He paid attention to the details and the itinerary without being too much. He was humble, responsive, and really passionate about showing the best of the local culture. I was a bit worried about the long drive since I tend to get claustrophobic, but with just seven people in the group it felt surprisingly comfortable. I actually enjoyed the whole trip from start to finish. Really glad I chose this tour.

Was really nice to see so... - Was really nice to see so many different things in 1 day. Quite a long day, so a bit tiring. But worth it to not spend two days in my opinion as it would have been more driving with similar viewpoints.
