          Amazing experience
          I went in June/July 2022 and I had thr best time ever. The tour started on time and the driver was very knowledgeable, polite, and helpful. He gave plenty of facts about every place we visited, and even took pictures of me with my phone as I travelled solo. We spotted some koalas too and had lots of fun. Would definitely do this trip again.

          Highlight of my trip
          An incredible tour exploring so many spots along the great ocean road. Deffinitley the highlight of my time in Australia. Mark our driver and tour guide was brilliant providing funny insights and some stops to see wild Koala and Kangaroo! It’s a long day but absolutely worth it.

          Enjoyable tour
          We had a brilliant tour with our tour guide Mark, he went above and beyond. Mark told us lots of stories throughout the tour and was very knowledgeable about all our stops, we had more than enough time at each location. I definitely recommend this tour if you want to see the great ocean road.

          Really lovely tour guide, we saw lots of wildlife (koalas, sting rays, kangaroos). Our guide had a lot of knowledge and made sure we were all comfortable and had a good time.

          Worth it! Thanks James
          Great day on the Great Ocean Road. It’s a long day, but pick up was smooth and prompt. Our guide James was in good spirits from start to finish, keeping up moral and sharing his passion for Australia. Spotted lots of koalas and Kangaroos, got Tim tams and tea, and lots of great info and humour from James, despite us having a pretty quiet group! Thanks so much James :)

          The tour guide Mark was one of the best tour guides I have ever had. He was fun, gave us tid-bits of information throughout and made the entire tour as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. Highly recommended!

          The overall experience is good. The driver/tour guide is very passionate and considerate. The route is very reasonable. If the vehicle's cleaning condition can be improved, then it will be even better.

          Great trip with a lot packed in
          The trip was really fun, we saw a lot (but also drove a lot - but you have to!) and the tour guide was really chilled out - also saw koalas and kangaroos in the wild!

          Beautiful sights and interesting tour
          Hi did the one day trip and it was just fantastic. We stopped off at lots of spots on the Great Ocean Road and saw so many beautiful sights! Our tour guide James was great and very knowledgable, and great at spotting animals like koalas, kangaroos and echidnas. It didn’t feel like we were in a rush at any point and felt like we had more than enough time to explore the different places. Overall it was really fun and I would definitely recommend!

          Unforgettable day trip out of Melbourne
          An amazing day trip! Undoubtedly, one of the highlights of my Australian vacation. Great scenery and amazing views, both wildlife and nature, highly recommended to anyone! The concept of tour for backpackers was a great choice, would I have more time I’d take the two days itinerary. Our tour guide Guy was incredible, made the day unique and unforgettable.

          Must do, if you don't have a car
          Guy was a lovely tour guide, we got to see all sorts with very few other people around. Wild koalas and kangaroos, great views on the 12 apostles and interesting little bits of information form Guy himself. Plus his playlist was a smash

          You must do it !
          I had an amazing experience on the Great Ocean Road tour! The pickup was right on time, and the driver drove safely, making the already stunning drive even more enjoyable. The guide was full of cool and insightful information throughout the journey, but I do wish he had a microphone in the car so we could hear him better while driving. A must-do is grabbing seafood in Hope Island—absolutely delicious! The guide also brought along a professional camera and sent us all the photos afterward, which was a thoughtful touch. Was it worth the money? I'd say so! If I could add anything, it would be more conversation during the car ride, with more details about the surrounding area. Overall, a fabulous day!

        Raphael was such a good tour guide, I had such a great trip Thank you. Im so glad I chose to do the two day tour instead of just one day. The extra day gave us the time we needed to see everything without having to rush. Dinner and breakfast included is a bonus! As a solo traveler this trip was perfect would recommend 100%

        Cam was an absolutely wonderful tour guide and made us all feel a real sense of togetherness and friendship as well as being incredibly knowledgeable about everything to do with the Great Ocean Road. Cam even cooked us all dinner (we helped out a little) but it was lovely and there was plenty to go around. The tour is fast paced but there’s so much to see! Cam even allowed us to use his 4K camera to take some pictures out and about which was really special and he uploaded them all very promptly which was equally as impressive!

        Yours like these are made by guides and Cam was exceptional! Keep up the good work!

        The tour was brilliant, Cam our guide was fun, very knowledgable and really made the trip what it was. We visited all of the key sights like the 12 apostles, spotted wild life such as penguins, koalas in the wild, emus and lizards.
        The trip is great value and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again and have recommend it to friends who have been and also loved it.

        Book it now!

        I initially thought these were paid reviews because of the perfect 5-star. I was skeptical I admit, but I still booked it anyway. And just 10 minutes into the tour, I understood why. Cam is nothing but an incredible tour guide and driver. But you will learn as you go along this tour that he's beyond that—he's your mate, chef, storyteller, animal whisperer, barista, photographer. He'll make this trip worth every single second!

        Totally amazing trip!! Would definitely recommend it to all travellers and would recommend to do the two day tour over the one day as you get to see a couple more places, spend more time at each place and the days aren’t as rushed!!! Our guide Raphael was totally incredible and went above and beyond for every single one of us, he couldn’t do enough for us! Raphael definitely made the trip for me! Hope to be to do a tour with you guys again in the future! Thanks again for everything!

        Such a great trip - defo recommend going the two days instead of one (miss the tourist rush hour and get to enjoy more of the GOR). Raphael was an amazing guide - knowledgeable, funny, efficient plus a great cook and photographer! The Port Campbell hostel is also really great! We definitely lucked out with the weather and our group but would have still been a brilliant experience regardless with all the nature and sites. 5 stars!

        Simply put, I embarked on this trip as a solo traveller with the view to exploring the Great Ocean Road. However, the whole experience far and above exceeded all my expectations. Jeremy our tour guide kept us entertained, imparting a wide breadth of knowledge as we travelled through the various towns, viewpoints and beaches. In addition, we learned much about the local history, geographical formations and flora and fauna, stopping off to meet and greet koalas, emus, kangaroos and an array of tropical birds along our travels. On the first evening, we arrived in the beautiful Port Campbell and enjoyed a delicious meal before heading to see the majestic Twelve Apostles in all their glory by sunset. Another personal highlight was visiting the spectacular Erskine Falls, a cascading waterfall with two viewpoints in the rainforest of the Great Otway National Park.
        Overall, it was a thoroughly enjoyable and memorable trip- perfect for anyone looking to detach from the hustle and bustle of Melbourne city for a few days. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to discover the Great Ocean Road in a relaxed fashion with some Tim Tams and laughs along the way! Five stars :)

        Highly recommend the two day Great Ocean Road tour! Cam was an incredible guide - very knowledgeable about every stop along the way, made an effort to connect with each member of the group, and cooked a delicious roast dinner for everyone! My favourite stops were the Loch and Gorge, and Gibson's Steps - both of which you could see from the beach. If you are a backpacker/young person looking to check out the Great Ocean Road, you won't regret booking with Ride Tours!

        Amazing two-day tour of must see locations throughout the Great Ocean Road, not to mention the wonderful nuggets of trivia dropped along the way by our wonderful guide, Mark. The accommodation, which was a dorm, was surprisingly clean and comfortable compared to the backpacker hostels in Melbourne! Highly recommend if you’re 18-35 of age :)

        I did the 2 day Great Ocean Road tour. The tour was brilliantly organised with loads of spots which you were given plenty of time at. The dinner and breakfast were both great and the hostel is clean and comfortable. A really sociable tour so was ideal as a solo traveller.

        Cam was an incredible guide who is knowledgeable and fun, taking loads of great photos for. He makes the experience incredibly enjoyable for everyone in the group.

        100% recommend to book if you are a young person looking. Doing a 2 day tour with this company was definitely the best way to see it!
