Great Ocean Road Day Tour: Twelve Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge and London Bridge

39 Reviews

13 hours

Overview

This full-day coach tour covers the headline Great Ocean Road sights in one go, with CBD pick-up and a bilingual driver-guide to keep things straightforward. You’ll travel the morning coastal route for wide ocean views, stop at famous landmarks including the Twelve Apostles and Loch Ard Gorge, and visit a few extra spots that are not always included on standard day tours, such as London Bridge. It is a long day, but if you want to see a lot without hiring a car, it is a practical way to do it.

Free cancellation

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Why backpackers love it

For backpackers without a car, this is an easy way to tick off the Great Ocean Road’s best-known sights in a single day. The price is fairly accessible for such a long route, and CBD pick-up keeps planning simple if you’re staying in Melbourne. It suits travellers who want the convenience of transport and guided stops more than total freedom, and who are happy with a full day on the road in exchange for seeing a lot.

What to expect

The day starts with a visit to the Great Ocean Road Chocolaterie before continuing along the coast. Expect scenic lookout stops including Lorne and Cumberland River Lookout, plus a photo stop at the Memorial Arch. There is time to break for lunch in Apollo Bay, then the tour continues to wildlife spotting where you may see wild koalas in the eucalyptus trees. Later, you’ll reach the bigger drawcards: the Twelve Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge and London Bridge. Transport is by air-conditioned coach, and travel time makes up a big part of the 13-hour day.
