The Great Ocean Road is truly a spectacle to behold. So much so, that you'll want to spend two fun-filled, unforgettable days exploring the best scenery that Australia has to offer. Departing from Melbourne, this tour will have the whole family enraptured, caught up in the excitement of this world-famous coastline. There are highlights galore, waiting for you to discover and enjoy.

  • The 12 Apostles lie along the coast, stunning in their iconic beauty.
  • Herds of friendly kangaroos bound across the panoramic scene scape at Bells Beach.
  • Cascading water rushes deep within bush land at Sheoak Waterfalls. The plummeting vertical drop of Mariners Falls in Apollo Bay will also impress you.
  • From Lavers Hill to Castle Cove you’ll descend from the mountains to the sea.
  • You’ll get to walk among the spectacular rainforest surrounds at Maits Rest, as well as the gorgeous Otway Forest.
  • Shy koalas rest high up in trees at Kennett River, while friendly wild parrots will swoop to greet you.

On day one, there will be plenty of stops along the way, with a delightful morning tea served at Torquay. You’ll love the sweeping beaches at Anglesea, Fairhaven Beach and Memorial Arch, looking out over the immense Bass Strait.

The historic Split Point lighthouse has incredible views from its summit, as well as a picturesque boardwalk at Aireys Inlet. As the sun sets, you’ll get to relax and swim at Apollo Bay, where you will spend the night in very comfortable accommodation.

After a free breakfast, day two sees your adventure roll into even more magnificent scenery.

Once you reach the 12 Apostles, you can catch a sea-level view from Gibson Steps. Or, you may decide to add an optional, discounted helicopter ride, to truly see the magnificent coastline with a bird’s eye view.

Between Loch Ard Gorge, Razorback and Island Archway you can snap some stunning scenery. At Port Campbell you’ll be served lunch, and also have time for a spot of shopping. You’ll then see The Arch, London Bridge, The Grotto, Petersborough, the Bay of Martyrs and the Bay of Island, before you’re returned home!

This two-day tour offers you everything you could possibly want from the Great Ocean Road, and more.
