Mesmerizing famous coastal meandering on an unforgettable journey
Overview of your Melbourne tour
This tour should not be done without an experienced, accredited and passionate local guide by your side. The experience will shine through as I tell you why the road is so famous, why and when it had to be built, the then and the now, the dangerous, the courageous, the sailors ending up shipwrecked all along the 243 km treacherous coastline, and all with constant picture perfect views of both the Bass straight and Southern Ocean. The flora and fauna constantly changing, the wildlife I'll find for us, the spectacular scenery, I have driven on this road many times before, this means I know it well and can make sure safety is the number one priority, its peace of mind to have that too. Not only that but you will see the passion come through, being with a true local offering a show-and-tell experience in an authentic and inspiring way makes doing this extra valuable and worth while. I can customize this tour according to your preferences, please do not hesitate to ask!

Andy is the best. Everyone visiting Melbourne should do the ocean road trip with him. He is a great guy and guide and fun to be with. You will see amazing sights and love it all. We can’t recommend this enough. You will not regret it.
Debra K.
Andrew was excellent. Extremely knowledgeable, patient and just overall nice guy. Committed to his customers having a great experience.

We were worried, because the weather was terrible this day. Andy made this tour a tremendous amount of fun, regardless. His knowledge is superb and his enthusiasm unmatched. The views of the apostles he gave us were excellent. The nature stops, including the wildlife along the great Road were perfectly timed. His ability to spot wildlife in hiding (koalas, echidna, kangaroos) gave us rare views of habitats. We highly recommend Andy for any of your Melbourne activities.

Andy was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all our questions. He was very friendly. Our group of 6 fit nicely in his vehicle and we had a great day! Thanks Andy
