A Great Ocean Road tour is one of the best things to do from Melbourne - the perfect way to escape the city and discover some absolutely stunning slices of Aussie coastline.

If you’re looking to fit in all the best bits of the Great Ocean Road but want to avoid the crowds then this Reverse Tour with Wildlife Tours is perfect.

Departing in the early morning this trip opts to head straight through to the highlight of any Great Ocean Road Tour – The 12 Apostles.

By heading there first you avoid the huge crowds of tourist and can enjoy the views across this part of the coastline in a much more relaxed way.

Once you’ve got your postcard perfect shots of the magnificent 12 Apostles you’ll spend the day making your way back to Melbourne, stopping at all the highlights along the way.

Stop for ice cream at Apollo Bay, take a quick wander around Lorne, and enjoy some awesome rainforest walks – a great way to immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Victoria and even spot some wild koalas too at Cape Otway Lighthouse.

Wrap up the day in Torquay (the birthplace of Ripcurl and Quiksilver) with an Aussie BBQ, before heading back to Melbourne in the evening.

An awesome day trip form Melbourne and the ideal way to see the Great Ocean Road for those who don’t drive or don’t have time for an overnight tour.
