This 2 day private tour is filled with the best natural wonders Victoria can offer.

Melbourne Touring Company's small group tour combines spectacular coastal scenery with mountainous beauty. You’ll experience a gold rush town, explore a mountain village and see waterfalls, wildlife and mountain views in the Grampian ranges.

A short hike and local Aboriginal culture rounds out the first day. After an overnight stay in Warrnambool, you will explore the shipwreck coast with its natural archways, gorges and grottos.

The day's highlight is the Twelve Apostles, where you'll view the magnificent limestone sea stacks from the cliff top and the beach. Your guide will tell you stories of dramatic rescues and historic tales of shipwrecks.

A rainforest walk, quaint seaside villages and a coast-hugging drive along the Great Ocean Road completes your two-day tour. Your private tour can be completely customised to your interests and requirements. Or you can follow our successful, proven itinerary.
