Great Ocean Road-Melbourne

Awesome trip!! Two days of fun, great sites, and AMAZING GUIDE!! The trip was excellent, despite the food being not good. The sites were great, and our guide, Scott, made the trip awesome. He went above and beyond in every way, and had great knowledge and fun and funny stories along the way. I would advise anyone to take a trip with Scott, (not necessarily with this company, but wherever Scott is providing tours.. Trust me, he's worth it!) Great sites, bad food, great guide!! Thanks Scott!!

An awesome experience

We had an awesome 2 days with Scott. One on the Great Ocean Road and the other day for Puffing Billy and Penguin Parade Tour. There were 5 of us and Scott was very attentive towards us. Even though it was tough for a full tour 2 consecutive days on the long road, Scott was very professional and his driving skills were great. His charges are very reasonable, you can't find another one as good and value for money. He is such a nice guy that even the animals and birds love him. We even had a chance to capture the beautiful sunset. Thank you Scott. It was a really wonderful experience. And we will be back for more with you on our next trip.

Best tour ever!

Promissed Scott to wrote a review and after half a year finally do so. This was by far the best tour I have ever been on. Even if you our planning on driving this beautifull road by yourself do the tour with Scott first! This dude knows every inch of this road and will give you heaps and heaps of tips of where to stop and camp, where to surf, where to eat etc. Get your notepad ready because you're gonna need it. From the moment we met Scott till we said goodbye, Scott ensured we had a good time. This guy knows tourism and is clearly passionate about what he does. We ended up with a group of just 3 people and it was brilliant because scott gave us a lot of choises in where to go or what to see. Obviously we saw the apostles and london bridge. But he also took us off the beaten track to feed birds, enjoy some awesome viewpoints and spot koalas. He also has the insane ability to avoid the big busses and large tour groups (at london bridge it was at some point just us 4) and he even joint me on a dip in the cold southern ocean while entertaining me with surf stories. Pay the odd dollar more. This tour with scott is priceless

Thanks for reading this far

Going through my old reviews to put up here is a walk down memory lane; 100's to choose from! I have done the same for the page photo, gone through the photo archives of years gone past! Point Leo our camping spot when my children were young, Naracoorte caves and fishing at Tabourie Lake - I love holiday memories from work and from play.
