Twelve Apostles are stunning
The coastline is jaw-dropping — the Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge and rainforest walks. Spotted wild koalas too. Our guide made the long drive fly by.

Postcard views all day
Every stop looked like a screensaver. Loch Ard Gorge and the Apostles were highlights. Great small group and a top guide.

Epic coastal drive
So much to see in a day. The Twelve Apostles at golden hour were unreal. A lot of driving but the stops and guide made it well worth it.

Best day trip from Melbourne
Wild koalas in the trees, dramatic cliffs and the famous Apostles. The guide was funny and full of local knowledge. Highly recommend.

Beautiful but long day
It is a big day out but the scenery is worth every minute. Sunset over the Twelve Apostles was magic. Bring snacks and a camera.

About Great Ocean Road Reverse Tour with Lunch
Operated by Wildlife Tours Australia · 13 Hours · Melbourne, VIC
Bored of the same old tours? Us too. That’s why we flipped the script—literally. Welcome to the Great Ocean Road Reverse Tour—a wild twist on Australia’s most iconic road trip. We skip the tourist traffic, ditch the crowds, and head straight to the good stuff. First stop? The Twelve Apostles, before the selfie-stick army arrives. Stretch out, breathe it in, and get that epic photo without a hundred strangers in the background. But wait, it gets better. We’re talking Loch Ard Gorge’s jaw-dropping cliffs, Razorback Lookout’s wow-factor views, and Mutton Bird Island doing its dramatic ocean thing. Oh, and did we mention a rainforest walk in the magical Melba Gully? Think ancient trees, cool vibes, and zero phone signal, just nature doing its thing. All this while you ride in style—plush seats, Wi-Fi, USB ports, and extra legroom, for extra comfort. We cruise the legendary Great Ocean Road in reverse through charming towns like Lorne and Apollo Bay, spotting wild koalas along the way. And yes, we stop at the famous Memorial Arch so you can snap that “heck yeah, I did this” shot. By the time you roll back into Melbourne, you’ll have stories, photos, and probably a few new friends. This isn’t just a tour—it’s a full-blown adventure with better timing, bigger laughs, and a whole lot less chaos. Ready to ride the road backwards and blow your mind? Let’s go. Meals: Lunch Driving distance: 570km Walking distance: 2-3km *This tour operator reserves the right to alter the route or itinerary schedule during seasonal weather fluctuations and/or during park closures.
