Great Ocean Road Tours

The Great Ocean Road winds for 240 kilometres along Victoria’s wild southern coast, and it’s widely regarded as one of the most scenic drives on the planet. Built by returned soldiers after World War I, it links surf towns, rainforest, waterfalls and the star attraction — the Twelve Apostles, a row of golden limestone stacks rising from the Southern Ocean.

The Twelve Apostles

The Twelve Apostles are the road’s most famous sight, best seen at sunrise or sunset when the low light sets the cliffs glowing. Nearby, Loch Ard Gorge and the Gibson Steps let you get down to the beach beneath the towering rock walls.

Day Trip or Touring Route?

A full-day tour from Melbourne reaches the Twelve Apostles and back — an easy way to see the highlights, though it’s a long day. For a more relaxed experience, multi-day and one-way Melbourne-to-Adelaide touring routes let you stop at the surf town of Torquay, walk in the Otways rainforest, spot wild koalas and watch the sunset over the Apostles.

Wildlife & Scenery Along the Way

Beyond the coast, the Great Ocean Road passes through the Great Otway National Park, where you can walk beneath giant tree ferns, chase waterfalls and see wild koalas dozing in the gums. Kennett River is one of the best spots in Australia to see koalas in the wild.
