Unforgettable Great Ocean Road Tour with Mark! - We had the pleasure of doing a Great Ocean Road tour with Mark today, and it was fantastic from start to finish. My parents had done the same tour with Mark a few years ago and spoke so highly of it that we knew we had to try it too—and we’re so glad we did!
Mark was incredibly kind, welcoming, and full of knowledge about every place we visited. His enthusiasm was contagious, making the tour both informative and enjoyable. He was always happy to answer questions or share fascinating stories about the landmarks, wildlife, and history of the area.
The itinerary was perfectly paced, allowing us to take in breathtaking views—from the stunning coastal scenery to the iconic Twelve Apostles. We even had the chance to spot wild koalas and kangaroos, which made the day even more special.
We couldn’t have asked for a better guide or a better day. If you’re considering a Great Ocean Road tour, I highly recommend going with Mark—you won’t be disappointed! Thank you, Mark, for an unforgettable day!

The Great Ocean Road Tour, Mark and the Krew - Mark was an amazing tour guide. He arrived early, took great care of my group and was very knowledgeable and accommodating. When initially planning for my group, Mark was the only tour company that offered services for a group larger than 12-15 people. He was very responsive and answered all of my initial questions.
He made suggestions to enhance our tour experience which included going to see kangaroos. It was an amazing day and I’d highly recommend Mark and his Tour Company if you’re planning a trip to Melbourne.

One of the highlights of my trip - My traveling group came booked a private tour from Melbourne and it did not disappoint. Mark was PHENOMENAL!!! Extremely knowledgeable about the Australian wildlife and geology. Took us to places to see kangaroos and kolas in the wild. He customized the trip based on our group and us plenty opportunities for photos, bathroom/food breaks, and small places for souvenir shopping.
Highly recommend the tour as the outback landscape is breathtaking.

Grand Slam or Bust Krew takes Australia - Mark is great and the tour was fun. We were a big group with differing abilities, Mark made the tour accessible to all. I was apprehensive of a 12 hour tour but the time flew by and we saw everything on my Australia bucket list.

Great tour of melbourne city, yarra valley, and great ocean road - My wife and I started our tour after a long flight from New Jersey with Mark picking us up at airport and off to a city tour on the first day followed by a great tour of Yarra valley and along the great ocean road to adelaide. Mark is personable, knowledgeable and professional. We had great tours over the three days and could not have asked for anything more.

Great Ocean Road meets Great Tour Guide - Grateful to Mark for leading us on an all day tour for one of our three days in Melbourne. We really enjoyed the Great Ocean Road tour including all the stops including the Twelve Apostles, Gibsons Steps (a good exercise), Loch Ard Gorge, Apollo Bay, Maits Rest rainforest, Bells Beach, and many other stops along the way. Having private guide is key since we could tailor trip and length of stops, and throw in a few unscheduled Koala and Kangaroo sightings along the way.
Very comfortable and informative tour. The day was fantastic. Thank you Mark!

Awesome Great Ocean Road Day - I was going to the Australian Open in Jan 2024 and wanted to take advantage of being in Melbourne and see some of the south coast scenery. I called a few tour companies, but I was late in planning the trip and all of them were booked for my available dates. I called Mark and he was booked as well, but he set me up with Peter who was a former tour guide that was now working part time. Mark handled all the details and everything went as planned. We did the trip in the reverse order of all the tour busses so we avoided all the crowds and had great day. Peter was great and we got to see the 12 (7 actually) apostles and all the beautiful cliffs and beaches along the south coast as well as some close encounters with koalas and kangaroos in the "wild". It was a great day and a highlight of the trip. Thanks to Mark for setting it all up and Peter for all his local knowledge on the tour and his recommendations for Melbourne places to see.

Amazing tour, highly recommend! - Fabulous tour of the Great Ocean Road! Mark picked us up promptly from our house in his spacious vehicle that fit all seven of us comfortably, and we chose to take the reverse route which allowed us to skip all the traffic of other tourists. The twelve apostles, rain forests, and long stretches of gorgeous coastline are a must see! Mark went above and beyond to make our experience memorable, even adjusting our itinerary once he realized that spotting koalas and kangaroos was also a priority of our group. I will say that because this tour covers so much ground, you are in the car for lengthy periods of time, but the sights are well worth it, and Mark kept us entertained with Australia facts and trivia during the ride. Awesome trip!

Brilliant four days in and around Melbourne - We did a two-day tour along the great ocean road with a night at Port Campbell. The third day we had a day tour to Philip Island and on day four Mark guided us through Melbourne city. Mark drives safely, is very friendly and shares lots of information, facts and stories along the way. He made sure the children (11 and 13) got involved as well. Mark proposed to do the great ocean road in reverse to make the best of the weather, which turned out to be an excellent choice. We spent the sunniest day in Port Campbell National Park which gave brilliant views of the 12 apostles and other rock formations. On the more cloudy second day we saw big groups of wild kangaroos and wild koalas!
