A trip around The Great Ocean road. - My experienced trip around the Great Ocean Road was fantastic. Our driver/guide Ann did a amazing job at explaining the history of the attractions we drove by and telling very good stories about the diffrent attractions. She made the 12 hour long drive feel shorter than it was with her happy and cheerful personality. She also recomended a good restaurant and additional attractions that were not on the itinerary but we had time to visit after the main attractions. The Great Ocean road was overall a wonderful attraction which was perfect for a long daytrip. The attractions like the Twelve Apostles and the blow-hole were stunning sites of nature which I would definitely like to visit again. Although the drive was long it was alright since the van was moderately comfy. The only negative that i could say about the trip was that in my opinion we could have spent more time at the seperate attraction locations.

A - 可以把这一点自然加进去: We had a great experience on this tour. The itinerary was well planned and we managed to visit many beautiful spots in one day. Our guide Jimmy was very professional and knowledgeable. He has lived in Australia for decades, so he shared many interesting local insights throughout the trip. Besides the stunning coastal views such as the Twelve Apostles, he also introduced us to the national park and helped us look for wildlife. We were very lucky to see a koala eating in the trees! Jimmy was also extremely kind and helpful. I lost something during the trip, and he patiently helped me look for it. His English and Chinese are both excellent, so I would highly recommend him to anyone who may be worried about the language barrier.

Chris was a great guide.... - Chris was a great guide. Tour group was a good size. A van as opposed to a big bus like some other tours. Stopped to see koalas and kangaroos. Would recommend.

Great Ocean Adventure - We had a great time! Great views and Jimmy Chan made the trip special with the kangaroo and koala sightings. He was very nice, helpful & thoughtful—ensuring to give us tips for better views, photos and food, too. He is really very knowledgeable and handed us as much I formation as he can. I personally feel so blessed. Moreover, am so grateful to God for granting us good weather. Weeks before taking this tour, until last night I checked there was rain forecast so we really prayed hard for good weather. Indeed earlier in the trip it was raining but shortly before our 1st stop for kangaroo sighting, the rain stopped. God is really so good all the time. And He is so good to take us to this tour with Jimmy Chan!

Beautiful views! - We visited in June and joined this tour. Jimmy was our tour guide and he had excellent information to share with us throughout the trip. We had a great time. There were plenty of opportunities to get great pictures and lots of good food. Be aware that any visit to the Great Ocean Road is going to involve a lot of hours driving on winding roads. But it was worth it to see all of the excellent views. We also saw koalas and kangaroos in the wild! We're so glad that we joined this tour and definitely would recommend it to others.

Breathtaking Views - A good old fashioned Aussie road trip with breathtaking views! I appreciated the reverse itinerary to avoid crowds at places like the 12 Apostles. Mark was an excellent tour guide and driver (very friendly, very efficient). We got a close up view of a koala walking down a side road (a rare treat, as they’re usually up in trees), and we finished the day with ice cream and chocolate. Highly recommend!
