Embark on Australia's Scenic Wonderland

Kickstart your day by diving into the panoramas of Australia's pristine beaches from your cozy air-conditioned vehicle. As you weave through the roads, your friendly and knowledgeable tour guide will enthrall you with Australian folklore and wildlife trivia. Prepare to be enchanted with nature's marvels at the Great Otway National Park, and spot wild koalas in their native habitat at Kennet River as you wander through the gum trees.

Venture into the Wild, Experience History Unfold

History awaits at the Shipwreck Coast, where your guide will let you in on interesting tidbits. Soak in the breathtaking view of these limestone stacks and hear the somber story of how 52 souls perished and only 2 teenagers survived the wreck of the Loch Ard in 1878. Visit the beach to re-live the story of survival before descending to Gibson Steps. Remembering this day as a true highlight of your visit to Australia, you will be dropped off at your accommodation in Melbourne.
