Great Ocean Road Tours & Holidays

The US has Route 66 and Australia has the Great Ocean Road.

The Great Ocean Road is a winding coastal route of sandstone cliffs and dense rainforest hinterland that stretches all the way from Torquay in the East to Allansford in the West. While the Victorian region is famous for its Twelve Apostles, there are plenty of local secrets to be found if you’re willing to take the time: visit the iconic lighthouse at Airey’s Inlet, spend a night among the green hills of Apollo Bay, or walk through the treetops of the Otway Ranges. Just make sure to stretch your neck muscles in advance: there are head-turning views around every loopy bend.

Great Ocean Road highlights

Admire the Twelve Apostles
If the Great Ocean Road is the journey, then the Twelve Apostles is the (main) destination. Naturally created more than 10 million years ago by constant wind and water erosion, these rugged rock formations rise up at a staggering 45 metres out of the ocean and have become an item on many travellers’ bucket lists. Stop at one of the many viewing platforms along the way to take in these beauties.

Wander Otway National Park
From jagged cliffs and undulating waves to lush rainforests and eucalypt woodlands, the Great Ocean Road region has it all, even a national park. Otway National Park is an ecosystem full of ancient plant life, secluded beaches, local wildlife and cascading waterfalls and you get to explore it all with a guided walk led by a member of Wildlife Wonders – a social enterprise concerned with the region’s conservation.

Visit Apollo Bay
The perfect pit stop along the Great Ocean Road, Apollo Bay is a quaint coastal town with plenty to offer from water-based activities such as kayaking, surfing and swimming to wildlife tours, hiking trails and cultural museums. Get your hands on an ice cream made with local ingredients, sit down for a coffee at one of the town’s trendy cafes or souvenir shop your way through its eclectic boutiques.

Enjoy the drive
Sometimes driving is simply to get you from A to B and sometimes it’s the whole damn journey – at least it is for the Great Ocean Road. Blessed with the best dramatic scenery goin’ round, this iconic stretch of road features crumbling coastlines, crashing waves and native bushland. So, sit back, listen to your favourite playlist, keep your eyes peeled and enjoy the view. PSA, there’s no dozing off during this car ride.
