Doing what: Great Ocean Road Small Group Eco Tour from Melbourne
It was an excellent trip! We thought it would be a very tiring day but even if it went for 13h it was a great experience! The 12 Apostles is definitely one of the main spots to visit at the G.Ocean Road, but there are a lot of other places that are worth seeing such as the shipwreck coast, bells beach, London Bridge and Loch Ard Gorge and the walk in the rainforest, you wont miss them with this tour. The tour guide, Dave, made the day different! He was really good :) I will definitely do this tour again!!

A fantastic day touring the Yarra Valley- the tastings were great, lunch was delicious. Our tour guide Brett was a knowledgeable and congenial host. I would recommend the tour as great value and very worthwhile....loved the experience!

I would highly recommend this tour. My mate and I decided to book a tour instead of driving ourselves so we could both enjoy the wine tasting. This tour is well run and brought us to a variety of different types of wineries. The lunch at Balgownie Estate was delicious!
My only suggestion is maybe to provide a little more information about what kind of bus/mini bus to look out for - there were about 4 different tours being picked up from the Federation Square so it was hard to tell which tour I was supposed to be on. Other than that, if you're looking for a tour of the yarra valley - definitely book this one!

The Great Ocean Road was beautiful, and the addition of a short rain forest walk really made the day special. Loved the small group environment. The big busses just don't provide the same level of intimacy. Our guide was knowledgable and entertaining.

Really fantastic views and spectacular scenery along the Great Ocean Road, especially with the added helicopter option at the 12 Apostles!

The Yarra Valley Wine Tour was absolutely fantastic! The service was impeccable, the wines and meal delicious and the experiences worthwhile. We have told other friends and family about the wonderful day we had. We really enjoyed experiencing this part of Melbourne outside of the city.

We have lived in Australia all of our lives, but have never travelled the Great Ocean Road. What a spectacle. Magnificent cliffs, scenic hills and farmlands, coastal beaches and forests. Unforgettable! Superbly organised and coordinated by Dave, our driver and host.

The Yarra Valley wine tour was a lovely day out in country Victoria. The tour ran on time, was very informative about the area and the wines and lunch was delicious.

Great Ocean Road is Great Fun, amazing scenery and fantastic emotions. I normally prefer indipendent travelling but this tour was well planned, you get to see a lot of places even though time is limited due to the distance you travel. Highlights of the day: helicopter ride over the Twelve Apostoles, definetely breathtaking, swimming in Loch Ard Gorge where I could have stayed forever and spotting the koalas! The guide was fun and informative, so top experience for me and my partner, we recommended straight away to other travellers staying in our hotel. Thank you!!

This was an amazing trip and an incredible value. No tasting fees , gourmet lunch and free jokes in the beautiful Yarra Valley. Our driver Nick was a great host. I booked this online after typing in " best Yarra valley wine tour". This was the top hit and all great reviews.

We departed at 7.30 am from our hotel and returned back at 9.30 pm. Apart from the cloudy and rainy weather which was of a nuisance at times, everything else was perfect.the tour guide was a friendly "Aussie" and had a good sense of humor. We were all suprised later to know our tour was among his first few official ones.
The Great Ocean Road itself was superb but I won't recommend it without the helicopter ride.

Great day, picked up on time, friendly coach driver gave interesting commentary along the way. Plenty of time in the snow, enough for a days skiing if you wanted. It even snowed so made a great trip for those who had never seen snow
