GO WITH MARTY

Marty was amazing. The trip was a long one, but the pace was perfect. The views we're absolutely incredible and very rarely was there a competing crowd. Marty's commentary flowed perfectly in terms of when and where and the jokes weren't all that bad either. He was also very accommodating with the converting the numbers so even us New Yorkers could understand. Well worth the price of admission.

Saw everything, but felt a bit rushed.

This was a great tour in terms of being able to see everything that was promised on paper. Seeing the 12 Apostles was definitely the highlight of the tour for me but I really wish we had more time for some of the stops. For example, I could have totally forego-ed The Great Dames of the Forest Stop since that was just a quick hike down to some bridge to take a photo. If we had skipped that, maybe we could have had a bit more time in the Apollo Bay for lunch and just exploring the town a bit. I understand that the tour is trying get everyone to see as much as possible, but it definitely felt more rushed than I would have anticipated. I'm glad I was able to do it once to see all the major sites, thank you nonetheless!
