Overview

A low frills express tour of the Great Ocean Road designed for cruise tourists and others who have limited time but want to experience the key attractions found on the famous road.
A shortened tour which packs in many locations thanks to the efficiently designed itinerary. A later start means you sleep longer, and we also miss the traffic. Taking the inland route, we enter the Great Ocean Road at the far end and make our way towards Melbourne, avoiding the crowds.
On this private tour you will visit well known locations, as well as numerous lesser known, less crowded, but amazing, locations where you have the opportunity to take photos and enjoy the amazing characteristics of each location.

There are ample opportunities for toilet breaks and stops to photograph wildlife.

As with all tours provided by 69 Tours, this is a private tour, which offers some room for flexibility, is never rushed, conducted in a relaxed, easy going fashion, by an experienced local guide.

    At this location you will see that London Bridge really has fallen down.

This location is one of the key highlights on the Great Ocean Road.

    The Twelve Apostles

    The famous Twelve Apostles. Have fun counting the various limestone stacks which form the Twelve Apostles which have been formed by erosion. An amazing sight, but there are much fewer than twelve.
