Thanks Paul for the great tour and the way you made the day and evening so special for Ron and myself. The Penquins are very special and it is a privilege to be able to watch and learn so much. We really appreciated your "Homemade cakes " and coffee to keep us warm. Seeing the Koalas,Wallabies and birds up close... More

I cannot express how absolutely terrific this tour was. If you do anything while you are in Melbourne, take Go West's Great Ocean Road tour. I had the pleasure of taking this tour on May 8 with Lee as my guide. Best. Tourguide. Ever. The scenerey alone is worth the tour, and it's an all day tour but so well... More

So impressed with this tour today, I am on the tour bus as we speak, using the free wifi on our way back to Melbourne. Paul was our driver/tour guide. And have had the best day with him, from the moment we were picked up at our hotel, up until now. The tour has been to some great places today,... More

This was an awesome day tour! Several people recommended I should never do the Great Ocean Road in just one day, but if all you have is one day, you do what you have to do. I have to say it is absolutely worth taking the day tour. Don't get me wrong, 13 hours is long, but there are so... More

As this is clearly a disappointing review, we have contacted the reviewer to seek further detail about her tour. The reviewer advises us that the reason for her review being negative was solely that her guide would not allow her to plug her mobile phone charger into the tour vehicle's cigarette lighter. Our guide responded in the negative to this... More

We booked the 1 day trip to see the great ocean road. From the start it was a great day with our tour guide Lee being bright and cheery as soon as he picked us up from our hotel. It's a long day but for seeing the sights during a quick stay in Melbourne this was the best possible experience.... More

I took this tour about 18 months ago and even though I have not ever watched underbelly, there were a number of stories that involved a cinematic movie that I had seen just prior to the tour. The driver was enthusiastic and could pretty much answer all of my questions - a big ask! I think that the driver used... More

Went on the one day Philip Island tour. Our driver+guide John was fantastic, from arranging meeting times to recommending places to eat to making sure we were comfortable all the while, who would have known one person can do it all. Thank you John!

We went on the Yarra Valley wine tour. There was lots of variety on the day. Lunch at Rochfords winery was delicious. A great day out. Thanks Travis for an informative and fun day.
