★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,068 reviews

Great Ocean Road tour from Melbourne with koalas, rainforest, the 12 Apostles, morning tea, and a full day of coastal views.

“This is a must do if you’re in Melbourne. Warren made the trip so much more memorable. He was very informative and jovial with his job. He also let us stop for a couple of additional Koala sightings and a Kangaroo sighting. Just don’t talk about Sydney while on this trip! Simon tagged along for the learning experience but I’m sure he’ll do good!”

“We had such a nice time on this tour! Nigel was incredibly knowledgeable about Sydney and its history, sharing so many interesting facts and stories along the way. It gave us a much deeper appreciation of the city. We also appreciated that it wasn’t too heavy on walking, which was perfect since we had already explored Sydney on foot earlier in our trip. The pacing was just right, and the views were beautiful. A great way to see and learn about Sydney in just a few hours!”

14.Yulara: Uluru Sunrise and Kata Tjuta Day Trip by Bus

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 469 reviews · 5 hours · from $140

Watch Uluru sunrise, explore Kata Tjuta, and walk Walpa Gorge on a practical five-hour bus tour from Yulara.

“It was unfortunate that our guide Nat was taken unwell at the first stop of the tour, so can't really comment about her. Jesse the driver took over and did a very good job, but as he was driving and talking the microphone did go quiet regularly and it was hard to hear at the back of the coach. Sadly we also had no sunrise due to it being so cloudy, but the viewing point is well located. Best part was the small hike in Walpa Gorge, which I really enjoyed, and seeing Kata Tjuta.”
