Day 1 (Lunch Included)
With CBD pickup* from Melbourne City at 7 am on Sundays and Wednesdays (Wednesday pickups are seasonal only), you’ll depart the hustle and bustle and head out to the beautiful Great Ocean Road. First up, you’ll visit a number of famous surf spots where you can photograph the waves crashing onto the pristine shoreline. At Kennett River, you’ll go koala spotting and try to spot a few of the plethora of bird species that are abundant here. Next, you’ll delight in a delicious lunch at Apollo Bay, where the views complement the food perfectly. The glorious Twelve Apostles are up next – these amazing limestone formations stand sentinel within the ocean and are an absolute must-see for those travelling the Great Ocean Road. You’ll learn the fascinating stories of Loch Ard Gorge, before settling down for the night in pleasant hostel dorm accommodation in Warrnambool.

Day 2 (Breakfast and Dinner Included)
You’ll awake and enjoy a filling breakfast before hitting the open road again on the Great Ocean Road, where you’ll see a number of beautiful sights on your way to the Grampians National Park. Here, you’ll stop at the Brambuk Aboriginal Culture Centre, where you’ll experience Indigenous culture, see detailed dot paintings and exquisite handmade crafts, as well as learn about the Dreamtime. Later in the day, you’ll enjoy a hike up to the famous Pinnacles, which will reveal to you stunning views overlooking the Grampians. As evening settles over the landscape, you’ll fill up on a traditional, mouth-watering Aussie BBQ in Halls Gap, where you’ll spend the night.

Day 3 (Breakfast Included)
A scrumptious breakfast will give you plenty of energy for your morning hike to the pool of Mackenzie Falls. These are the highest falls in the Grampians and are a truly majestic sight. Before heading home, you’ll also get to experience the wonder of a number of other popular sites, such as The Balconies and Reeds Lookout.
