Summary Description

Experience the natural beauty of the Great Ocean Road on a full-day tour that includes sunset viewing at the Twelve Apostles.

Description

Experience the natural beauty and picturesque waterfront towns of the Great Ocean Road on a full-day tour from Melbourne that includes sunset viewing from the Twelve Apostles rock formation. Immerse yourself in this famously scenic drive in Australia and look for wild koalas in the Great Otway National Park. Explore the iconic rock formations of the Port Campbell National Park and finish your visit to the coast with a mesmerising sunset overlooking the region's most famous limestone stacks - the Twelve Apostles.

Depart Melbourne in the morning via Westgate Bridge, the longest bridge in Australia, with sweeping views of the city and Port Phillip Bay. Pass Geelong, Victoria’s second-largest city, as you make your way towards the Surf Coast known for lovely beachside towns and powerful surf. During a short stop in Anglesea, stretch your legs by strolling along the Anglesea River before continuing your scenic journey. Soak in the breathtaking coastal scenery of the Great Ocean Road as you drive and during frequent scenic stops, including a photo op at Eastern View where the Great Ocean Road Memorial Arch stretches over the road. Have time to purchase lunch in Kennet River or Lorne. Afterward, take a walk through a wilderness refuge with eucalyptus trees that shelter wild koalas. Look for the koalas in the trees napping or munching on leaves—the large population of koalas virtually guarantees multiple sightings. Continue by coach through the Otway Ranges to the Shipwreck Coast and Port Campbell National Park. There you see iconic rock formations starting with Loch Ard Gorge. Hear the story of the shipwreck at Loch Ard in 1878 and view other rock formations with amusing names such as Dumpling Pots, Razorback, and Island Archway. Then head to the Twelve Apostles before sunset to watch the sky change colors over the majestic rock formation.
