An Australian Luxury Escapes vehicle will pick you up from your hotel to commence your Shipwrecks and Wild Clifftops tour. Leaving the city we head over the magnificent Westgate Bridge. This bridge offers awesome views of the Docklands, as well as a panoramic view of the city skyline. On our way to the Great Ocean Road we drive through the western suburbs of Melbourne followed by fertile agricultural plains. We bypass Geelong, an industrial centre and Victoria’s second largest city, before we join the coast near Anglesea, a popular holiday destination. Continuing on to the resort town of Lorne, the road, known as the world’s most inspiring coastal drive, clings to the coastline, twisting and turning, every bend revealing a sight more spectacular than the last. After a short morning tea break, we continue past breathtaking ocean vistas to Kennett River. In this area, high in the trees is a colony of wild koalas. See these creatures in their natural habitat, lazily lounging in the trees and looking after their young, oblivious to their human onlookers. A sumptuous lunch is served at Apollo Bay before we continue our trip along the Shipwreck Coast area of the Great Ocean Road. We follow its winding trail through the lush temperate rainforests of the Otway Ranges, where centuries-old eucalypts reach 100 metres or more into the sky. Passing through lush sheep and Cattle County, we finally reach our goal - the mighty Twelve Apostles, world-recognised icons of the Great Ocean Road. These giant rock stacks soar from the swirling waters of the Southern Ocean and are a central feature of the spectacular Port Campbell National Park. The dramatic and imposing limestone cliffs that are the backdrop to the Apostles tower up to 70 metres, while the tallest of the rock stacks is around 45 metres high. Time permitting we get to see another one of the amazing rock formations that dot this coastline before heading inland through dairy farm country on the way back to the city.~~~~

We bypass Geelong, Victoria’s second largest city famous for sport and leisure before we join the coast near Anglesea, known for its red cliffs. As we continue along, we reach Torquay where the coastal drive officially begins. Stopping for a light morning tea, we continue passing by the breathtaking ocean vistas to Kennett River. Here you will spend time gazing up into the treetops to witness koalas in their natural habitat. Next, we depart to Apollo Bay, a gorgeous seaside village.
