Description:

Get to know the sights of Melbourne and outstanding natural landscapes along the Great Ocean Road on this 4-day tour through New South Wales. Meet koalas and Tasmanian devils, see the limestone stacks of the 12 Apostles, and learn about the nature and history that defines this corner of Australia.

Day 1:
Upon your arrival at Melbourne Airport, a transfer takes you to your hotel. Once you're settled in, enjoy an afternoon with free time for you to take a break or explore the city.

Day 2:
Discover the charm of Melbourne with a tour of the city's sights. Stroll through the Royal Botanic Gardens, see the Royal Exhibition Buildings and Federation Square, visit the Shrine of Remembrance, and tour the Southbank waterfront precinct.

Next, visit Maru Animal Park for some up-close encounters with koalas, kangaroos, Tasmanian devils, and more. View spectacular coastal scenery at the Nobbies, a pair of rocky outcrops abundant in marine life. You can learn about the area's little penguins at the Phillip Island Visitors Information Centre, and then watch the creatures battle the surf as they make their way to their burrows.

Day 3:
Ride past towering limestone cliffs, sweeping white beaches, and stunning forest scenery as you travel the length of the Great Ocean Road. Witness a fabulous spectacle of massive natural erosion with an abundance of contrasts between the rugged coast and verdant rainforest that exist side by side.

See the amazing 12 Apostles, limestone stacks that rise dramatically from the Southern Ocean, and walk along the boardwalk to enjoy the scenery from various viewing platforms before you head back to your hotel.

A transfer takes you back to Melbourne Airport to connect with your return flight as your tour comes to an end.
