Nice tour - Very nice tour. Went with Michael, very nice guide. Took some beautiful pictures. The view was very nice. The car was very comfortable.

Amazing experience! - Michael was a great tour guide and the whole tour was overall an amazing experience, I totally recommend it! We also got lucky with the weather and so the whole time it was sunny and I even managed to swim!

Fantastic Day Trip - Fantastic day with our tour guide Michael! Showed us all the good spots had a lot of fun facts. I also felt very safe in the car with him!

"Unforgettable Family Adventure: A Perfect Tour with Expert Guidance" - I highly recommend this tour for families with kids. We were a group of 10, comprising two families traveling with six boys. Our amazing tour guide, Wes Albert, advised us to follow the normal tour route instead of the reverse to avoid incoming rain. His expertise in planning tours, considering our limited time and the weather conditions, was invaluable. Our day began at 9:30 am, we visited the Chocolaterie along the way, made a number of stops to savor the views and enjoy the breeze, took lots of family photos, care of Wes who is familiar with the best photo op locations. Enjoyed a great 45 minutes to lunch at Apollo Bay before heading out to the 12 Apostles and concluded just before sunset with our final stop at Loch Ard Gorge. It was a relaxing tour, and our kids enjoyed it despite the light rain nearing the end of our last stop. The food options at the stops were excellent, and the timing of the stops was perfect for our needs. Wes's knowledge of the sights' history kept even our kids fully engaged and eager to listen to his stories. A short stop on the way to the Gorge gave us the chance to see koalas, and the boys loved the memorable souvenirs they received from Wes.

A one of a kind experience! - Truly recommended day trip. The views are mesmerizing, the road is unique and the experience is really worth it. Our guide Wes has been truly professional all the way from recommending us the departure time, to guiding us during the day with his very elaborate, knowledgeable and fun commentaries. Wes even looked out for koalas, kangaroos and wallabies that we wanted to see (and saw) in the wild. Our family really enjoyed this day. Gracias!

Wonderful tour of the Great Ocean Road - Fantastic tour! Wes was a wonderful tour guide! He was knowledgeable, told interesting history and stories, and fun to talk to. The sights of the tour were incredible—we loved the twelve apostles, loch ord gorge, the eucalyptus forest walk, and Apollo bay. We had a great lunch from a small cafe Wes recommended and were lucky enough to see Koalas and Kangaroos in the wild!

Amazing Experience with Melbourne Touring Company - We chanced upon this tour when reading through another review. We did not regret a single moment in this trip. From the time we were picked up till the time we were dropped back at the hotel, this entire trip felt like an Australian road trip with stops at scenic places along the Great Ocean Road and viewing wildlife such as koalas and kangaroos in their natural habitat. Most of all, our tour guide, Wes Albert was really one of the best guides we have had in our trip. He suggested to take the opposite route where we headed straight to the Twelve Apostles and then moved down the road and then back to Melbourne. This helped us to beat the crowds from larger tours and enabled us to have more time at scenic places for photography. Wes also provided so much information about the Great Ocean Road, and we also enjoyed conversing generally about Australia with him! We definitely learned a lot more through this trip and would recommend to others, especially those who prefer to customise their trip and to have more private time, while being guided. The vehicle provided was also very clean and tidy, and they provided us with water, wet wipes and ensured that we had ample toilet breaks throughout the journey. Wes also went the extra mile to take good photos for us and they turned out really well! Please consider this company for your trips as well!

A long ride to see spectacular views. - We booked a private tour with viator because it allows us to customize pick up location as we rented Airbnb house, outside CBD. However, on the date our van arrived more than 20 minutes late, claiming his google map brought him to another place. When I called the office, an operator told me that our driver was stuck in traffic. Once I texted the driver our location, he came to park across the street but I waved to him to come on our side as my 76 years old mother cannot walk too far. We have 5 people in this trip. Apart from the late pick up, everything went well. Michael is friendly and professional. He let us spend time where we like with no pressure. He shared his experience about places along the way. It’s a pity that the van has no sound system, So people in the second and the third row rarely heard what he explained to us. Th van is 8-seat Mercedes Benz V-class, with no seat belts in back rows. But I can feel that Michael is an adept driver. Although the road has twists and turns, only a few of us felt car-sick. If there were good sound broadcast system and seatbelts, we would feel better. He managed to go where we should. We saw kangaroos in golf course, one koala on a tree along the way, a trail walk after lunch. The last stop, 12 apostles is worth the long ride. even we got there almost 4 p.m., he allowed us to spend time enjoying the view. the tour is 11 hours altogether. On the way back alone, it was two hours 40 minutes. And you need a reliable driver like Michael. Overall, It’s a worthwhile experience. A private tour is suitable for a big family.

Great Ocean dr tour - The Great Ocean driver reverse tour and the guide Wes were amazing. I wanted to customise the tour as per my preference. John and Wes were good to suggest private tour and the reverse travel option worked so well that we got ample of time at 12 apostles with less tourists. I highly recommend Melbourne Touring Co for the Great Ocean drive tour.

Amazing views - The views were amazing and we took a lot of beautiful photos. Our tour guide, Wes, was very friendly and knowledgeable. The whole trip took around 12 hours, was long but very enjoyable ride.
