The Great Ocean Road is one of the best coastal drives on the planet and if you’re looking to discover everything it has to offer but avoid the crowds this reverse Great Ocean Road day trip from Melbourne with the crew of Wildlife Tours is ideal!
Instead of starting in Torquay and working along the coast to finish at the famous 12 Apostles this tours heads straight for them instead – beating the traffic and allowing you to get a much more chilled and less crowded experience!
After grabbing your icons shots you’ll then head back towards Melbourne where you’ll stop at spots like Torquay (the birth places of surf brands Quicksilver and Ripcurl), the world famous surf break of Bells Beach, the picturesque beach towns of Lorne and Apollo Bay as well as checking out Cape Otway Lighthouse – which is an amazing place to spot wild koalas!
An epic day of adventure and sightseeing that’s finished off with an awesome Aussie BBQ in Torquay before heading back the city
