Wild-Life Tours

Our tours operate between Melbourne and Adelaide via the world famous Great Ocean Road and the historical Aboriginal settlements of the Grampians.
Experienced tour guides will take passengers to Bell's Beach (site of the World Surfing Titles) and along the Great Ocean Road, via Lorne and Apollo Bay.
Heading up through the Otway rainforest with its magnificent variety of trees , treeferns and wildlife, we stop for a rainforest walk, and then descend to the Shipwreck Coast and its many highlights, such as the Twelve Apostles and London Bridge.
The next morning we move inland to The Grampians National Park or "Gariwerd", which is its original Aboriginal name.
Covering an area 100 kms long, 50 kms wide, over 400 million years old and raising to its pinnacle at Mount William (1166m) combined with the immense amount of native flora and fauna it certianly should not be missed by any traveller to this part of the world.
