【Tour Introduction】
‣ Day 1 - Great Ocean Road Day Tour (Tour time: 07:30am-19:30pm)
・ Memorial Arch
The Memorial Arch, a structure located on the Great Ocean Road, was built to commemorate the veterans of World War I who constructed the road. You cannot miss taking a photo here! You can walk down to the beach via the trail next to it. See for yourself how vast and beautiful the Southern Ocean is from the shore.
・ Kennett River
It is time to find wild koalas sleeping on eucalyptus trees as you walk down the forest path.
・ Apollo Bay
This is the largest town on the Great Ocean Road. It is full of great restaurants. Shall we have a delicious lunch and take a short break before continuing our journey?
・ 12 Apostles
The scenery here is what made the Great Ocean Road a 'must-visit destination before you die'. The 12 Apostles refer to the twelve pillars standing on the coast, but due to wave erosion, some have already collapsed, and only eight peaks remain today. It is a place you must visit before it is too late.
・ Gibson Steps
An opportunity to go down and walk on the sandy beach! Ozinara pick! Spend some time at Gibson Steps!
・ Loch Ard Gorge
Loch Ard Gorge is the site where the Loch Ard, a ship arriving from England, was wrecked in the past. You can learn the story of Tom and Eva, the only survivors of the shipwreck. Surrounded by huge rock walls, dip your feet in the water at this small beach that feels as cozy as a mother's embrace.
・ London Bridge
London Bridge marks the end of the Great Ocean Road tour.
There are various reasons why it is named London Bridge here in Australia; find out during your trip! Take in the scenery of the exceptionally huge and magnificent white waves, and create beautiful memories with great photos.
‣ Day 2 - Puffing Billy & Phillip Island Day Tour (Tour time: Winter 08:20am-21pm / Summer 11am-23pm)
・ Puffing Billy Railways
Take a trip into the forest on the Dandenong steam train that has been operating for over 100 years. It is a genuine coal-fired steam train, one of the best-preserved in the world.
・ Sassafras Village
Visit this small mountain village, which looks like it came out of a fairy tale, with many pretty tea rooms and shops selling cute items. Lunch will also be held here.
・ Maru Koala Animal Park
On the way to the afternoon schedule of Penguin Island and Phillip Island, visit Maru Animal Park where you can meet Australia's representative animals. You can observe special Australian animals like kangaroos and koalas up close. It is also nice to enjoy a cup of coffee and relax at the cafe inside the zoo.
*Entering the zoo is optional, and the admission fee is separate.
*The Maru Animal Park schedule may change depending on traffic conditions.
・ Nobbies Rock
This area was once a habitat for seals, where over 20,000 seals used to live. Enjoy a light trek along the traveler's path installed below the coastal cliffs.
