Excellent tour - Our driver and guide today was John. He was very knowledgeable as well as assisted us with anything we needed, making our day very enjoyable. We even stopped at a number of extra interesting spots, including seeing Koalas in the wild. The time allowed for each stop was good and we had many great photo opportunities! John is a very good driver too. We highly recommend this reverse small group tour of the Great Ocean Road.

Our tour guide - Bill did a fantastic job and provided great service!!! Could not ask for more!! Me and husband did have a great time!! Would definitely recommended this tour to others and my friends who are going to visit Melbourne!!

Excellent tour and tour guide! - Started the day early with hotel pickup right on time. Bill was our guide for the day and he was wonderful! Very knowledgeable and very friendly. Remembered all of our names and where we were from. Made sure to include everyone and to make sure we were comfortable. Would highly recommend the reverse tour and I hope your guide is Bill!

A 5 🌟 experience - I did Great Ocean Road Tourwith Tours Around Melbourne last week and had an overall great experience. To start they were one-time. The guide, Peter, was great, fun, energetic, welcoming, took care of everything and provided great commentary. I was impressed on how he can keep it up on such a long work day (over 13 hours total). Their tour is a small group, we had a comfortable modern van and I'm happy I took this option as it is much more personal, with extra quick stops customised for our group. We had several amazing stops on the way in which were the only group at, before the big crowds Arrives. Doing the tour in Reverse. You also get more chances to meet fellow travellers and I ended up having an impromptu beer with a Canadian couple the next day. Overall A Great experience with A lot of comfort and Relaxed Atmosphere

Reema and varun had a Great time 💥 - The Great Ocean Tour with Michael Guide was truly enriching and enjoyable! Although it was a long distance, the comfort of a brand-new Modren Mini Bus minimized fatigue. The Great Ocean is definitely a must-see destination. Thanks to Tours Around Melbourne we had a great time and had a great time, thanks to the efforts tour! Guide Michael.
