Cannot stress enough how amazing this tour was! I'll just list all the things below, as I'm too lazy to write everything as complete sentences - there's just so many things I loved about this tour. - So many locations wrapped up in a single tour, you're going to get to see SO MUCH - Enough time to explore all the stops so we didn't feel rushed (this is not the case with every tour) - All the animals! We saw an actual baby koala on a tree with his mama and stopped to take photos! - Our tour guide was the best, such a fun lad! Gave us a lot of information too, but not so much that it would've become annoying on the long trip - Honestly, you're going to spend a lot of time just sitting in a car, but the views are so great it's not even all that bad - Comfortable van with air con Go do this tour! It's worth it!

We took a tour in January 2020. Our guide was excellent and had perfect timing which allowed us to beat the crowds. There are quite a few stops but each was unique. Twelve Apostles were excellent. And we loved the quiet and majesty of the rainforest. Also alee saw quite a few koalas. Guide was fun, relaxed and very informative. We took another tour to Philip Island with the same company and with the same guide and head another five star experience. All together great fun, would definitely recommend. Loved the van with the little penguins ;-)

If you don't have much time at hand and would still like to see it all, this trip is for you. Mike C went above and beyond to make our tour memorable and to give us an insight on the places we saw. He was cheerful, upbeat and that translated into the atmosphere on the bus. It will be an intense day, so make sure to go well-rested. There's plenty of opportunity to get off the bus and take photos or just soak in the landscape. We were lucky enough to even see a kangaroo on our way back!

Leonie was a helpful and passionate tour guide. She remembered all our names and where we came from just in a morning! She gave us detailed and interesting information to all places we visited. She helped us to took good pictures as well as recommended restaurants for our lunch and dinner.

Yasmin from Go-West, was the perfect guide for the long- but totally worthwhile day! Every stop was better than the last, and so happy that we took this tour. Of all the tours we took in Australia, this day with Yasmin was the best. The sights were so beautiful, but it was great to see how much she enjoyed sharing each spot- it was like she was showing off her babies! I felt she made a connection with everyone on the tour, which made this long day, so much more enjoyable. There was a lot of stops, but many were so different than the last, it never got boring. This seemed like a big commitment in time, but so happy that we did this one. Totally worth it- ask for the best!

Mel C was THE best tour guide and completely made the trip....and it's a long ride so for her to keep us all entertained, educated about her home country and having fun is something special! I met a lot of great fellow tourist on my ride that I remain in contact with and ran into some locals to have lunch with at our lunch stop for a Sausage Roll and a Scallop Pie. Needless to bring up the great views on this trip, even with some fog in the air it was gorgeous! Thanks for an awesome day Go West Tours!

This is an excellent tour. Yes it is a lot of ground to cover in a day but we felt we saw enough to be satisfied. We made many stops and were on a schedule but not rushed. Very informative and a beautiful area. Liked the small group. Would definitely do again.

Our guide Cloe was remarkable in her knowledge of every aspect of the Great Ocean Road Tour. She was very articulate, approachable, kind and made a special day of sight seeing exceptional. Well done Cloe and Go West Tours! Thank you for a great small group tour.

Michael, our tour guide/driver, was very informative, helpful, and kind. Not only was he knowledgeable about the areas to which he took us but also led us through the rain forest, the Twelve Apostles site, and the Loch Ard Gorge. He was constantly helping us by taking our cameras/phones and having us pose while he took the pictures. He even used his own mobile phone to take pictures of me when my camera ran out of memory! He then e-mailed those photos to me. My only regret is that we didn't have a longer time at each of our stops... but that would have made the tour much, much longer.

Great scenery of the Great Ocean Road, the Australian bushland, and an exceptional guide Leonie! She surprised us with some morning coffee and tea and brought in all the necessities. She was very considerate towards my but allergy and made sure she had snacks that were for everyone's needs. Gave interesting facts of the tour I would have not known otherwise and easy to have conversations with! The views of the 12 Apostles were breathtaking, the Otway National Park was beautiful, and we were very fortunate to spot some wild koalas! Can easily recommend this tour to anyone!
