From Melbourne: Great Ocean Road & 12 Apostles Full-Day Tour – Melbourne, Australia

EXPERIENCE:

Embark on a scenic journey on the Great Ocean Road on a full-day tour from Melbourne. Stop at Memorial Arch, explore coastal towns for wildlife, savor lunch in Apollo Bay, and marvel at the iconic 12 Apostles and Lock Ard Gorge. Capture breathtaking views and learn about Australian history.

Begin the morning by heading east, away from the city. Get time to take in lots of spectacular scenery as your guide drives you along the Great Ocean Road. Make a stop for morning tea before visiting Memorial Arch and snap some of your first photos of the day.

Then, embark on a casual bush walk in a coastal town. Keep your eyes peeled for koalas and a range of colorful birds nestled in the trees. After the walk, stop in Apollo Bay to enjoy lunch from a local eatery (at your own cost) before continuing the afternoon of sightseeing.

Next, head to the 12 Apostles, the crown jewel of the Great Ocean Road. Admire the limestone stack, one of the most famous landmarks in Australia, and capture the jaw-dropping coastal views.

Continue to the scenic stop of Lock Ard Gorge, made of impressive limestone cliffs. Take photos of the eclectic mix of stunning sea views and wild scenery as you walk around. Learn about the famous Australian shipwreck whilst here. If you’re lucky, you may even be able to spot dolphins.

On the journey back to Melbourne via the inland roads, sit back, relax, and take in the scenery of the quaint country towns.
