HIGHLIGHTS: Are you the kind of person that enjoys losing your breath sometimes? Are you ready for the beauty of this storm-carved coastline? If you said yes, you're ready to join us on this excellent Great Ocean Road Small Groups Tour! One of the best aspects of this tour is that by reversing the usual route, we get to experience the 12 Apostles in the tranquil morning hours, steering clear of the afternoon rush. Additionally, the sunlight casts a magnificent glow on the limestone formations at this time of day. Things you will see and do: • Travel inland in the morning straight to the Twelve Apostles • At least 4 attractions at the Shipwreck Coast: 12 Apostles Coast, Gibson Steps, Loch Ard Gorge, and The Razorback • Coastal towns: Apollo Bay, Lorne, and lots of other stops for pictures - Spot koalas in the wild • Reverse itinerary to avoid the crowds: we mean it! We get there earlier • More attractions, more stops, more fun!

Seeing the 12 Apostles, stops along the way and our tour guide who went to great lengths to help us find a koala bear! The group on the bus and the guide Brendan make a big difference. Definitely do the reverse tour!

We (husband and I) thoroughly enjoyed our Reverse Tour of the 12 Apostles and Great Ocean Road. Originally, we were going to hire a car and try to explore the Ocean Road on our own. We are so glad that we thought better of this. Our driver and guide, Neil, was a fountain of knowledge and was very entertaining. Visiting all the high-points of interest in a single trip is a tall task for any itinerary, but Hit the Road Tours has done it! Thanks!
