The experience is more than great - In general, the experience is great. First of all, the guide is professional, knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor. And he is so great at finding koalas and other unique creatures. No one else in the group has his vision. Secondly, the view is more than fantastic. The Gibson Step Beach, the Twelve Apostles, Apollo Bay and loads of other attractions are so beautiful. I was totally speechless when I saw the ocean and the cliff. They’re just marvelous. Thirdly, looking for koalas is a really challenging task but the guide makes it so easy as he continued telling us and pointing where they were. And he provided us a good camera so we could zoom in and took lovely pictures of them. The kangaroos were cute as well. We saw one with her babies eating grass on a golf field with tens of other kangaroos. The scene so quiet and peaceful. Last but not least, we had got a great afternoon tea as well. He’s elegant and patient when asking us what kind of tea or coffee we wanted and served us a great meal. By the way, with his high driving skills, the commuting is smooth and the minivan is comfy. I totally recommend this tour. Please do not hesitate to reach them for more information.

Must do - Mark my tour guide was such a legend, very friendly. He drove at such a pleasant pace and always felt informed. Definitely something you can do solo. Feel it is not too rushed and you get all the main points off in the trip. You don’t need to pack food as you stop off in places you can buy some. Mark also took photos on the camera for us to have ourselves, the extra touch.

Amazing experience - I went in June/July 2022 and I had thr best time ever. The tour started on time and the driver was very knowledgeable, polite, and helpful. He gave plenty of facts about every place we visited, and even took pictures of me with my phone as I travelled solo. We spotted some koalas too and had lots of fun. Would definitely do this trip again.
