This was the 2nd wine tour of our trip, 3rd overall and best by far. Craig, our driver and guide was totally professional, knowledgeable and thoroughly helpful. It was a pleasure to have him as our guide and the day could not have been better. We went to two wineries, were given many free tastings and had loads of time to enjoy the experience, in addition to taking in some amazing sights of the coastal towns around Adelaide. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he ensured everyone onboard had a great day, which sadly can't be said of another company we went with. Don't be put off with the relatively low price, the quality of service and experience cannot be beaten. Will certainly book again when we next visit Adelaide!

We had a great day with this company. Pre-tour, we dealt with James whose communication was immediate and thorough. He gave his honest option on car sickness, which was very accurate. Thankfully his recommendation of what to do worked out well and I got through it in one piece. Word to the wise, you do spend a lot of time in the car on the one day tour so car sickness might be a problem for some people. If this sounds like you and you have the additional day up your sleeve, best to pick their 2 day option. Alas, we only had one day, so we had to bite the bullet. On the day, Aaron was our guide. We got some incredible snaps, as he had a great talent for getting us to great picture spots when there wouldn’t be a lot of people there. I’m not sure if this was by accident or on purpose, but I expect the latter. He was also very knowledgeable about the local flora and fauna and we got to meet his wife en-route and she came out of her house beside the road, to wave to us and to give Aaron his work packed lunch for the day. It was nice to know we were being driven around by a real local. And because he was local, he really did seem to deliver us to some delightfully quiet but equally picturesque spots along the way.

Henry gave us a great tour of Phillip Island, aided by some beautiful weather (thanks melbourne). He was a very knowledgeable guide and just a great guy to have to spend the tour with. We had a close family friend who warned us from doing a trip down to Phillip Island. They hated it. But the more I read up on the island, the more I realised that most other people that had visited the island, overwhelmingly had a positive experience. But now I understand why my friend hated it. They took a bus tour and when we compared notes on our tour, they described the places they stopped. Well they only visited 3 stops. We visited about 10 different locations and half of them were definitely not on the tourist map as we were the only ones there. But to be honest, these were my favourite stops. They were well away from the tourist buses and in fact probably not accessible to the buses as we went down some narrow roads. But the wildlife there was out of this world. So look, if you are going to to Phillip island at all, find out where you will be taken. How much value for money are you getting. Are the tickets included. Is there an advantage to taking a private tour. How well does your group mix with other people you have never met. Do you want to go and your own pace or happy to go at the pace set by the rest of the group. Do you want to be picked up from your hotel doorstep or are you happy to jump on a tram to meet the bus tour. Obviously these are not questions my friends asked before she booked her tour. So really, do your research people or you will just end up on a tour that isn’t right for you. There are lots of options so nobody out there should be licking the wrong tour for them.unless you are a lazy click and book person like my friend!

Our trip is done nicely, we stay in private campgrounds with showers and toilets, eat good food and drive around in an A/C Mercedes minibus.

We only run tours from Melbourne so we make sure we show you all the best spots. Our tours are professionally run and will get you to see many of the major highlights around Victoria. It is also timed so that you get to the major spots when other tour companies aren't there, giving us the best chance to enjoy the site rather than fight the masses!

We did a tour with Chris who showed us his favourite places in the Grampians and Great Ocean Road. He completely tailored the tour and pace to us, welcomed us esteemed guests and treated us as friends and family. His vehicle is first class comfortable, driving of the safest standard, catering is top notch and camping gear of foremost quality. He knows the region as his own and you are treated to full days of amazing scenery that will become indelible memories. You must book immediately, and be rewarded with best value, responsible and outstanding tourism, without feeling like a tourist.

Andrew was a fantastic tour guide. We had such a relaxing tour and the tour was customized to what we wanted. He asked questions to get to know the people in the group and played whatever music we requested. He has a great sense humor. We would highly recommend Andrew and this wine tour to anyone. Thanks Andrew especially for the experience with relieving our childhood in a children’s ball Pitt and your participation.
10. Ride Tours, 2 Day Great Ocean Road Experience
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 84 reviews
Touring the Great Ocean Road is one of the most scenic drives in Australia. The road itself is listed by the Australian National Heritage and is rich with amazing sights, landmarks, and history – including the famous Twelve Apostles limestone formations. On this tour, we drive the road in the opposite direction, starting from the south-west coast and working back, which allows us to avoid the crowds from other tour buses, and we get the boring part of the drive out of the way first, saving the best of the Great Ocean Road to last. A two-day tour means we can take our time along the way, so that you will never feel rushed. The only timeline we have is to ensure we arrive on time at the Twelve Apostles for sunset. This tour is suited to millennial's, 18-to-Thirtysomethings and is jam packed with amazing destinations and activities.
Inclusions: Accommodation as per itinerary, Overnight accommodation, Buffet dinner, Breakfast, Coffee and/or Tea
Exclusions: Lunch

You shouldn't miss the Great Ocean Road if you area visiting Victoria, it's the State's premier attraction. The 12 Apostles are wonderful to behold. The Loch Ard Gorge is a whirling mass of pounding surf, you wonder how people have survived it, but they have. With this tour, you will get some insights you might otherwise miss.
