Private Great Ocean Road - La mejor aventura australiana

We had an incredible experience from start to finish. The tour was very well organized, the places were spectacular, and we really had an excellent time. A special thanks to our guide, Nico, who was super kind, attentive, and always had a great attitude. In addition to being very nice, he made the whole group feel comfortable and welcome. During the day, he had to adapt to several schedule changes and even to an unexpected client, and he handled everything with a lot of patience and professionalism. He adjusted the itinerary in the best way and made everything turn out perfectly, as if it had always been planned. Without a doubt, we would recommend this tour, and if you have the opportunity, ask for Nico. Thank you for making it an unforgettable day!

Our private tour of the Great Ocean Road with Nico was one of the highlights of our trip to Australia. The Great Ocean Road is truly one of the world’s most scenic drives, built by returning World War I soldiers—a remarkable story that makes the journey even more meaningful. Along the way, we stopped at the legendary Bells Beach surf break, visited a picturesque lighthouse, spotted kangaroos, and saw wild koalas in their natural habitat. Lunch at The Perch was outstanding. The food was excellent, the deck offered beautiful views, and wild red and green parrots and parakeets flew freely around us while we ate. It was a photographer’s dream! I even tried kangaroo for the first time—it was delicious and surprisingly healthy. The grand finale was the breathtaking Twelve Apostles. These magnificent sandstone formations have been sculpted by the Southern Ocean over thousands of years. Although there were originally nine (despite the name suggesting twelve), only seven remain today, making them an unforgettable sight. Nico was an exceptional guide—friendly, knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and a lot of fun. He shared fascinating history and local insights throughout the day and made the experience truly memorable. If you’re planning a trip along the Great Ocean Road, I highly recommend requesting Nico. You won’t be disappointed!

Nico was our guide, and he was so knowledgeable and fun! We were relaxed and saw so many beautiful places. Excellent tour and guide!

We had an amazing tour today with Nico. It was very memorable, and Nico did an amazing job, finding animals, describing things, and navigating the tour.

We actually did 2 full day tours…..Yarra Valley & Wildlife as well as the Great Ocean Road. We had the pleasure of being guided by Lachy Grace. Lachy is knowledgeable, experienced, kind and fun to be with. He went out of his way to plan us 2 incredible tours in the Melbourne area. Do not hesitate to plan private tours with Localing!

Matthias was a superb guide. He was warm, welcoming, and engaging. Matthias. Matthias has a wealth of knowledge about Melbourne and we enjoyed playing Trivia with him for the three days we spent together. The Great Ocean Road was spectacular with breath taking views. Throughout the day we stoped at various lookout points and beaches which were all memorable. We also enjoyed our lunch at a local restaurant called The Perch.

If you are planning a trip to Melbourne, do yourself a favor and book the Great Ocean Road Tour with Locally Private Tours. We took this trip a week ago, and it was easily the highlight of our entire vacation. The real secret to this incredible experience was our guide, Harley. From the moment he picked us up, he made us feel like we were traveling with a close family member rather than a tour operator. Harley’s depth of local history and geographical insights was impressive. He didn’t just drive; he told the story of the coast. He was incredibly punctual but also flexible with our schedule, never making us feel rushed at any of the stops. He knew exactly where the best local food spots were and guided us to the most breathtaking photo vantage points that the big tour buses completely missed. The vehicle provided was extremely comfortable, which is essential for a full-day coastal drive. However, the absolute peak of the day was the wildlife. Harley’s keen eye allowed us to see both koalas and kangaroos living naturally in their own habitats. Seeing them up close and personal was a true "once-in-a-lifetime" opportunity that we will never forget. Final Verdict If you want a fun, personalized, and seamless experience while seeing the best of Australia’s Coast, I cannot recommend Locally Private Tours enough. Ask for Harley—his passion and warmth turned a great sightseeing trip into a memory we will cherish forever. Dan Harrigan

The Great Ocean Road and all of its little adventures was a highlight amongst a very strong month in Australia. It was a day full of splendor and variety, Matthias absolutely exceeded expectations. He was thoughtful and considerate to our personal disposition and crafted the day perfectly, from tactfully avoiding the high season crowds to striking up the perfect amount of conversation along the way. We saw everything we wanted and nothing we didn’t. 10/10 day.

We had a fabulous private adventure with Mattias navigating us around the Great Ocean Road, cute little cafe stops for coffee and lunch, and the amazing 12 apostles, Gibson steps, unforgettable coastline, but most exciting was his secret spot for spotting wild koalas!! Highly recommend this tour and Mattias!

My wife and i recently spent 2 days with nick visiting the 12 apostles and phillip island. Nick was the perfect guide- knowledgeable , friendly with a wonderful sense of humor !
