Drive to Shipwreck Coast to see 12 Apostles first

Start your journey from Melbourne and enjoy the iconic coastal landscape of Great Ocean Road as you drive to the Shipwreck Coast. Here, you'll see the breathtaking 12 Apostles rising from the Southern Ocean sans the usual crowd. Enjoy your complimentary morning tea as your guide tells you tales of the region's past before heading to Loch Ard Gorge and the striking rock formation of Razorback from Mutton Bird Island.

Ancient rainforest, a memorial and picnic lunch

Journey towards Great Otway National Park, where you’ll go on a guided forest walk in the ancient rainforest of Melba Gully. Keep your eyes peeled for koalas in the eucalyptus trees and kangaroos peering from behind the trees. Your journey continues along the Great Ocean Road to the Great Ocean Road Memorial Arch, constructed as a tribute to World War I soldiers. As the day concludes, relish a delicious picnic-style lunch while reflecting on the stunning natural beauty, fascinating history, and unique wildlife you saw on this tour.
