About this tour
A full-day coastal drive along Victoria's most photographed stretch of shoreline, stopping at dramatic rock formations and coastal villages between Lorne and the Twelve Apostles. Your bilingual guide navigates you through 12–13 hours of some of Australia's best seascapes, including the lesser-known London Bridge arch and sheltered Loch Ard Gorge. Lunch happens in Apollo Bay; keep an eye out for koalas in the eucalypt forests en route.

What to expect
You'll spend most of the day on coastal roads with frequent stops to walk short distances to lookouts and rock formations. The Twelve Apostles are the centrepiece—seven of the original twelve stacks still stand offshore, best photographed in afternoon light. London Bridge, a dramatic natural arch further west, gets far fewer visitors. Expect moderate walks on sealed paths and gravel; the terrain is mostly level but can be windy and exposed. Lunch is your responsibility in Apollo Bay, a working fishing town with fish-and-chip shops and cafés. Wildlife spotting isn't guaranteed, though koalas are common in the region's forests.
Good to know
Bring layers—coastal weather changes fast. Wear sturdy walking shoes for rocky paths. The tour suits moderate fitness; those with heart conditions should reconsider. Prams and strollers work on most paths. Public transport runs near pickup points. Lunch and personal spending aren't covered.
