This Great Ocean Road day tour is designed for travelers who want more than a standard sightseeing loop. With a maximum of 10 guests, the experience focuses on storytelling, ethical wildlife encounters, honest pricing, and responsible travel. By booking this tour, you support protected wildlife and nature through our tree-planting carbon offset program.
Everything listed is included in the price — no hidden fees, no upgrades, and no pressure to spend more during the day. Instead of rushing between stops, the itinerary is carefully paced to allow time to explore, listen, and connect with the landscape.
A journey with meaning
Leaving Melbourne, the day begins with a relaxed stop at a local chocolaterie, giving everyone time to settle in and get to know the group. From there, the journey follows the iconic Great Ocean Road, where every stop is tied together with stories rather than scripts.
At the Memorial Arch, learn why this road is considered the world’s largest war memorial, built by returned soldiers and shaped by resilience and history.
Ethical wildlife, done right
Rather than relying on chance roadside sightings, this tour includes a visit to the Great Ocean Road Wildlife Park. Here, native animals are viewed in a supervised, expert-led environment that prioritizes animal welfare and guest safety. This approach supports conservation education while avoiding uncontrolled interactions with wildlife.
Iconic coast, unhurried Feel the scale of the Southern Ocean as you descend the Gibson Steps to sea level. Spend quality time at the Twelve Apostles, with space to explore, photograph, and absorb the scenery without feeling rushed. Continue to Loch Ard Gorge, where dramatic cliffs frame one of the Great Ocean Road’s most powerful shipwreck stories.
Designed routes, not repetition
The tour travels along the coast on the way out and returns via an inland route, offering different landscapes and a more engaging journey rather than repeating the same road twice.
Honest, all-inclusive experience
There are no extra charges during the tour. Complimentary snacks, a free drink, and a printed Instax instant photo are included as personal touches. Lunch and dinner are not included by design, allowing flexibility for different dietary needs, preferences, and beliefs.
To give back to the environment, trees are planted to offset the carbon emissions created by this tour, ensuring each journey contributes positively to the landscapes visited.
