This full-day eco tour from Melbourne lasts between 11 and 14 hours and follows the Great Ocean Road, ending with sunset views at the Twelve Apostles. The tour begins with hotel pickup and travels in a small group of up to 24 guests in a vehicle equipped with upgraded seating, air conditioning, and onboard WiFi. A friendly, knowledgeable guide provides commentary throughout the day, supported by an audio guide available in 16 languages. The journey includes about four hours of travel along the Great Ocean Road, offering ocean and coastal views. The first stop is Anglesea, a coastal town where guests have a 15-minute break to stretch their legs by the Anglesea River. Next is a 10-minute stop at the Great Ocean Road Memorial Arch for photos and a chance to visit the nearby beach. During summer, lunch is taken in Lorne, a beachside town, with a 50-minute break; in winter, lunch is near Kennett River, where the tour spends 20 minutes. At Kennett River, adjacent to Great Otway National Park, the guide helps guests spot native koalas in the eucalyptus forest, emphasizing that the animals are wild and should not be disturbed. The tour continues to Loch Ard Gorge for 30 minutes, where visitors see coastal rock formations such as the Razorback, Dumpling Pots, and Muttonbird Island, and learn about the 1878 shipwreck of the Loch Ard and its 52 victims. The final stop is the Twelve Apostles, where guests spend one hour watching the sunset over these iconic limestone stacks. All fees and taxes are included, but food, drinks, and gratuities are not. Large bags, strollers, prams, baby capsules, luggage, and walkers are not permitted on board. The tour operates in all weather conditions, so dressing appropriately is recommended.
