Overview

The Great Ocean Road in Victoria is known for its rugged coastline and natural landmarks, including the famous 12 Apostles limestone stacks. This full-day bus tour from Melbourne lasts about 11 to 14 hours and includes several scenic stops along the route. The tour starts mid-morning heading towards the Surf Coast. The first stop is in Anglesea, a typical Australian beach town, where there is a short break to walk by the river or beach. Next, the group pauses at the Great Ocean Road Memorial Arch to learn about the road’s construction and its significance to local coastal communities, with a photo opportunity. At Kennett River, there is a chance to spot wild koalas and native birds in their natural habitat. During winter months, this stop is extended to allow time for lunch. The tour continues to Loch Ard Gorge on the Shipwreck Coast, where guests can walk the beach and hear about the area's shipwreck history. The highlight is the visit to the 12 Apostles, with time to view the large limestone stacks from the platform. Guests also descend Gibson’s Steps to see the cliffs up close. The tour aims to arrive at the 12 Apostles in time to watch the sunset over the ocean, weather permitting and only during summer. Included are on-board WiFi, hotel pickup from selected locations, all fees and taxes, a tour guide, and air conditioning on the vehicle. Meals and drinks are not included, nor are gratuities.
