About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- EventCoordinator2r0 contributionsPenguin parade without the paradeThe penguin parade was missing altogether, yet I was sold a penguin parade tour. We saw two penguins coming out of the waterWritten March 22, 2025
- emmixklatt0 contributionsSpeed fun!This trip is the best thing to see as much as you possibly can within the span of a single day. Views, animals, rainforest and all accompanied by little anecdotes by our lovely and very lively guide and driver Craig (and of course Berry). Also as a solo traveller this is a nice way to connect with people from all around the world :) If you have limited time and don‘t want to miss out on any important sight then this is the way to go!Written March 5, 2025
- ajakel6710 contributionsLong but plentiful!The journey along the Great Ocean Drive is spectacular and being able to see the vast land changes outside the city gives you a much better awareness of Australia beyond the city. Our tour guide gets an award for endurance for the 13 hour tour and for keeping us safe and on time.Written March 3, 2025
- P563ZTmeganl0 contributionsBest trip everThe trip was so much fun! Ethan (our guide) was super friendly and knowledgeable and even though I went alone I felt safe and surrounded by great people. This tour was one of the best things I did in Melbourne and I would definitely recommend it - saw Koalas, Penguins and Wallabies while exploring Melbourne’s beautiful surrounding areas.Written February 24, 2025
- F249VNmarkb0 contributionsGreat experienceGot to see lots of animals - wallabies, cape barren geese, echidna, koalas, and of course penguins. Graham, our driver/guide, was helpful and had lots of information.Written February 22, 2025
- rosemariesenr0 contributionsAwe Inspiring, Breath Taking SceneryThe Great Ocean Drive is so spectacular! It takes one breath away. The sea, sky, lush greenery (where one could spot a koala, kangaroo, Laughing kookaburras), and awe inspiring rock formations.Written February 7, 2025
- 723jeanettev0 contributionsIncredible vies and wildlifeGreat views and knowledgeable driver. Also saw kangaroos, wallabies and koalas in the wild. Well worth the trip from Melbourne.Written January 28, 2025
- H2375OAchrisr0 contributionsCheck small printFew minutes late for bus due to personal error therefore lost entire money paid. Classified as a “no show”. To re-book, would have to pay full fare again.Written January 24, 2025
- p0llackl0 contributionsA mini exposure to life on the coast of Melbourne.Peter was a wonderful guide. Great humor. Went out of his way to get the most out of the day! Would highly recommend daytrip to the 12 Apostles. LynnWritten January 15, 2025

- I9203LWdavidc0 contributionsGreat tripOur guide Wayne was great. Plenty of explanation and advice on walking routes helped to optimize our enjoyment of the trip. Totally worth going on this trip. Glad we booked it.Written January 9, 2025
- B6996EOjennac0 contributionsWonderful experience & even better guide! Matt was knowledgeable and all around fantastic!We cannot say enough great words about our guide, Matt (Matthew) who was originally from England, but has been in Australia for some time now. He was absolutely fabulous with our 8 yr old son. We was knowledgeable and an all around wonderful guide! He even provided us with morning tea and snacks to break up the drive. We especially enjoyed getting out and doing little walks at the lookouts and it was fun to explore the lower lands when possible. Unfortunately we couldn't go down to Ship Wreck beach (as it's closed off due to rocks falling. The only thing missing would have been to get to see the 12 Apostles from the beach, but were informed that time wasn't built into our trip. I would highly recommend taking one of the other smaller stops away to add that in, if the tour operator could make that happen?Written January 9, 2025

- maryoC5995FU0 contributionsGreat Ocean Road TourIt's breathtaking scenery seeing the twelve apostles. What a beautiful coastline of part of the Great Southern Ocean. Seeing the countryside of Victoria was interesting to.Written January 5, 2025
- pop_ma0 contributionsWorst Tour!Worst tour company EVER! My sister and her family visiting from USA went on Great Ocean Road tour on Dec 30 with Wildlife Tours Australia. I purchased this trip tickets based on great reviews on Google and Tripadvisor. The microbus was small and the AC was broken. The driver apologized and said that the AC was fixed 2 days back. Also a red light appeared on the dashboard while driving which is not a good sign. The company should've checked the vehicle before using it for tourists and ensure that it is fit for purpose! The windows in the back of the microbus couldn't be opened on a 26 degrees day, so my sister came back home with a massive headache and a bitter taste in her mouth.Written December 30, 2024

Was on the tour with about 24 peoples and had Lizzy as a guide. She was amazing and made the trip to an unforgettable experience. She was so good prepared, the music was even matching to every story she was telling us. She was very nice to each traveler of us. Thank you Lizzy! :)

Very satisfied with this trip. Stopped at some beautiful sites along the way on great ocean road. Lovely walks around the grampians national park and stunning view points. Our guide (tara) was just great she made everything very clear and tells some interesting stories about the sites we are visiting and passing. Would highly recommend

I had a really good time on that tour! Our tour guide Tara was great, she was always in a positive mood and explained a lot about the area from the very beginning of this tour! I really liked to listen to all of her interesting stories from the Great Ocean Road! We stopped at a lot of places, so many things to see! Lots of great look-outs, high and honey-coloured cliffs, koalas hanging in a tree and very cool kangaroos at Halls Gap! Thank you very much Wildlife Tours Australia!

This is an excellent tour if you want to see several major stops on the Great Ocean Road and get a taste of the Grampians but can't be bothered driving. Even better if you're wanting to go from Melbourne to Adelaide (or vice versa) as it saves you bus/plane fare and accommodations for a night.
Our guide Lewis was knowledgeable, well-spoken and friendly to all 15-20 passengers on the trip, which was mostly young (and well-mannered) 20-somethings as well as several middle-aged members.The hostel accommodations are very basic but hey, at how many 4 star hotels do you get to see kangaroos grazing just a few hundred meters away?
