Excursion d'une journée sur la Great Ocean Road et coucher du soleil sur les 12 Apôtres au départ de Melbourne
Commencez votre journée par la traversée de la deuxième plus grande ville du Victoria, Geelong, avant de prendre la direction du sud jusqu'à la ville côtière de Torquay, où commence la Great Ocean Road.
Admirez la vue époustouflante sur la côte à mesure que vous traversez les villes pittoresque de Lorne, Apollo Bay et Port Campbell et visitez le légendaire phare de Split-Point, le plus vieux d'Australie. Ce phare est en service depuis 1848 et était un signe pour des milliers d'immigrants qui accostaient après plusieurs mois en mer. Vous aurez l'occasion de prendre des photos et vous pourrez admirer la faune et la flore indigènes telles que les koalas, les kangourous géants et toute une variété d'oiseaux. Arrêtez-vous sur les berges de la Kennett River pour observer les koalas et profiter d'un déjeuner avec café.
Ensuite marchez à travers la chaîne des Otways où vous pourrez admirer le Loch Ard Gorge et les Gibsons Steps sur la côte ouest de la Great Ocean Road avant de parvenir aux Douze Apôtres, aiguilles calcaires de renommée internationale. Naturellement formées par l'érosion, ces formations calcaires étaient à l'origine des grottes et des arcades qui se sont effondrées dans les eaux cristallines de parc national de Port Campbell en raison des conditions météorologiques difficiles.
Avant de retourner à Melbourne, admirez le magnifique coucher de soleil sur la côte spectaculaire. Il s'agira sans aucun doute de l'un des nombreux points forts de votre journée !

Beautiful scenery along the Coast, but The Apostle's at sunset was over-the-top! Driver was thoughtful but clever.
The staff especially the tourist guide was friendly, professional, entertaining! She look after us and make sure everyone is ok! I recommend it 100 percent I’ll definitely book again from this company! Alex
Great customer experience, chiefly down to a great bunch of folk, but importantly, our tour guide BEAR !!! He was excellent and kept the whole show on the road for 13 hours !!! Plenty comfort breaks and refreshment stops. Highly recommended, Graham (Scotland)
Ian was such a great driver and guide. Made tons of dad jokes which I enjoyed hahha! He also shared a lot about australian aborigines which made this tour very insightful as well. This is my second time to the 12 Apostles and the sunset view is definitely much better than going in the afternoon (IMO). Highly recommended!
You can enjoy everything along the Great Ocean Road by joining the Bunyip tour. Our tour guide Jun is very informative and helpful. It is a very long day which takes you almost 13 hours of ride. The experience is great with wonderful arrangement.
Go see 12 Apostles, which is amazing, just make sure to avoid Duff Man who is not a good tour guide. He skipped stops in the listing, until the customers in the group corrected him. He also rushed the group through sunset at 12 Apostles and actually left before sunset. Given that this tour is emphasizing both the 12 Apostles and seeing that particular site at sunset to rush the group at that point was particularly irritating. Great scenery, bad guide.
Our driver, Brett, is extremely knowledgeable. He went out of his way to serve us, and explained everything to us. He showed us many beautiful sceneries. The vehicle is however very old and looks like a 1950s model. The vehicle is so crowded and small for a 16 hours trip. Timing is poor. Lunch is at 11:00 am, and dinner is after we come back which is 10 pm. Our kids were so hungry. Each stops were just a few minutes long, so it wasn't relaxing at all. We would have liked more time to take a short walk at the rainforest or at Kenneth river.
The scenery is breathtaking - truly a stunning place. The tour was fairly well organized with rest-and-activity stops every 1-2 hours. The first stop at a aboriginal wildlife park was a waste of time. I've been to a number of these parks in Australia, and this one was pathetic. They had exactly 1 kangaroo very cute and friendly, though, two anti-social wallabies, and two emus - that's it. So everyone crowds the poor kangaroo, trying to feed it. The company should find a better wildlife park, or skip this altogether and spend more time at the other stops, like the rainforest or the wild koalas and birds. It's a long drive, and the driver was anxious to keep us on schedule, but eventually it started to feel stressful. The driver was knowledgeable and polite, but I wouldn't exactly call him approachable and friendly. The bus was old, with a rough ride, and the worst part was that the windows were constantly fogging, obscuring the incredible views. Overall, though, this was definitely one of the best trips I've done here in Australia. By the way, it turned out that the prices people paid for this trip varied wildly. So it's worth to shop around.
