Fun day along the Great Ocean Road - My mom and I had a wonderful time during the full day tour with our guide, Aidan. He made sure we are all comfortable and safe and very knowledgeable of the area we were visiting. He kept us I formed and entertained with the facts and stories he shared about the places we were visiting. We took a lot of awesome photos and it was a good way to show my mom the natural beauty of Victoria.

Fantastc Great Ocean Road trip - The reverse tour is a fantastic idea. We arrived at the 12 Apostles without the big crowd of tourists and so we’re able to get good shots - photos and videos. It was a long day filled with good memories to bring back home. 2 thumbs up to our tour guide Matthew who provided some interesting information about the places we went to. He even served coffee, tea, milk and Timtams for our morning break at Colac Memorial Square. USB ports are available on the coach which was great! Autopia is highly recommended!

Very poor - the bus lacked air conditioning, making the journey uncomfortably hot. We keep asking to open the windows but the driver keep closing. Was a nightmare. Additionally, the bus itself was very old and not comfortable . The driver rearranged/changed passengers’ seating, putting other people in the first seats…which was inappropriate and unfair, considering everyone had paid the same fare. Very poor and not respectful.
