Description
Enjoy the scenic journey along the Great Ocean Road on a great day out from Melbourne.
Near the township of Kennet River, you take a brief side trip into the sweetly-scented eucalyptus forest to locate some of the local koalas in their native habitat. The koala population here is particularly strong and numerous sightings are guaranteed. After lunch, proceed through the spectacular Otway Ranges, where you make a stop to enjoy a stroll in the cool temperate rain forest at Maits Rest.
Then onwards to the world famous Port Campbell National Park and its iconic array of rock formations. Be awestruck by the majestic monoliths of the Twelve Apostles. This is where the helicopter ride takes place when you visit the Twelve Apostles. Just down the road is the heart of the Shipwreck Coast, the Loch Ard Gorge where 52 lives were lost and only 2 souls survived the wreck of the Loch Ard in 1878.
Your final sightseeing destination is the collapsed London Bridge, where two holiday makers were stranded when the first arch collapsed in 1990.
A dinner stop is made on the journey back to Melbourne when you will enjoy a stunning view of the illuminated city as you cross the Westgate Bridge again on the way home.
Highlights:
Personalized small group tour
iPod audio language translator
Scenic helicopter option (additional charge)
The Twelve Apostles and other rock formations of the Port Campbell National Park
Personal video system is provided on the homeward journey
