Private 12 Apostles, Otways & Great Ocean Road Hiking Tour from Melbourne

Southbank Trip Overview

Your private tour departs Melbourne bright and early with our sights set on beating the crowds at the Great Ocean Roads, famous 12 Apostles. Here we enjoy a 1km stroll along the boardwalk while appreciating the limestone stacks and stunning views.

Our next spectacular scene, Gibson Steps, offers a unique 70m cliffside pathway down to the beach. Enjoy the privacy of this beautiful beach and take all the time you need to get the perfect shot.

Next up, it’s time for a delicious lunch at our favourite local cafe before heading to the Great Otway National Park. Enjoy a magical 3km hike through ancient rainforests of thick ferns and large myrtle beech to arrive at the beautiful Beauchamp Falls—a 20metre waterfall that the bigger bus companies don’t visit.

We visit the giants of the forest at the Californian Redwoods before continuing our drive along the iconic Great Ocean Road to the tranquil village of Apollo Bay and Kennett River; home to native koalas, king parrots and kangaroos.
