Professional - Graham was very proficient, professional, courteous, knowledgeable, especially dealing with a very difficult couple who were obnoxious and non-compliant with the rules. Give Graham a raise!!!!

Fantastic experience! - Incredible all day tour of the Great Ocean Road. What an experience! There were various stops and each one was timed well. We always had enough time to take in the surroundings. Even had the chance to see some koalas which was an unexpected bonus! There was a lunch stop at Port Campbell where there is a good choice of places to eat (I recommend Grassroots Cafe & Deli). The stop for a walk through the rainforest was lovely too. It was a long day but absolutely worth it. Our tour guide was Jess and she was great. She looked after us the whole trip. Making sure we were all enjoying the trip. I’m sure all the guides with this company are very good but if you get Jess then you are in good company for the day! Even if she does get you to try Vegemite….I won’t be trying it again!

Great Ocean Road Full Day Eco Tour - The tour of the Great Ocean Road was incredible. The views were incredible alongside the coast and it was absolutely stunning. My husband and I were in awe. It was definitely a WOW factor. Our Dave (David N) was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and so friendly in having a chat whenever we could. He knew what he was talking about and we learnt a couple of new things. Having a bus driver that was always checking to see if we were okay and if we needed to stop, he would only if it was safe. Seeing koalas in the own habitat was so cool. We were the only Aussies on the tour and going on this trip was great for us as we could just enjoy the scenery and the drive. The locations he took us to were so amazing and loved the 12 apostles and 'The Wreck' and others were so beautiful. The rock formations was a sight as the colours were nothing like I have seen and alongside the blue water was something you just had to see in person. The bus ride was good as it was a perfect amount of time in and out of the bus. It didn't feel too long and tiring. Lunch was yummy at Apollo Bay and that was a cute little spot. At the end of the night, it was like saying goodbye to a friend as Dave dropped us off. Thank you for an incredible day.

Nice/fine, but a bit underwhelming - Plenty of awesome scenery - I especially enjoyed the 1st segment, dreamy beaches & clear blue ocean. Angel, our tour guide, was lovely.. incredibly approachable & friendly, keeping the energy levels up on what is a very long day! However, for a young-ish solo traveller, this tour/group was a bit PG for my liking. All very nice & fine but attracted an older/touristy crowd... not really anyone to vibe with & it felt a little bit like a school geography field trip by the end of it, looking at rock formations. Not enough time at the beautiful beach stops for my liking sadly - admittedly because so much has to be condensed into one day. Oh, and the flies... they are so relentless, I cannot explain how insane they drive you - never experienced anything like it. It takes the edge off the day when you just can't wait to get back on the bus to have some respite from them landing on your face constantly. In summary, the tour is fine, but maybe not quite what i was looking for - might be better done hiring a car and picking your own itinerary to prioritise the bits you like most
