Warren is wonderful driver and guide. Can see his passion in explaining about the destination. He took effort to find wild Kangaroos and Koalas. Even prepared small treats for all of us. The destinations are good. However the weather was too cold and wind was very strong in Twelve Apostle, making it less enjoyable. instead, I enjoyed Loch Ard Gorge and Mait Rest Rainforest. Recommended for anyone who wants to visit Great Ocean Road.

I recommend everyone to come. There are so many pools inside that are very fun. You must also buy transfers. When you are tired after soaking, you can just sleep with the air conditioner in the car. It is recommended to take a hot spring bath in spring and autumn.

The airport bus is very convenient. You will receive a QR code after purchasing. Just ask the staff to scan the QR code when you are queuing. The zoo is also fun.

Our tour was just chill. We were picked up a little bit late, driver said it was due to road closures. But hopefully the would adjust prior hehehe. We went to 3 places, and the highlight was really the penguin parade. with this tour you got to pay a little extra for the Kangaraoo food to experience feeding them. You have to pay separately to experience the Koala petting which was the highlights of what we did because it does not include in the tour only entrance fee to Moonlit. the Our driver do less talking, she said her microphone was broken, not too much informations about our tour or let us just say she was focused on driving 😄 I guess it was way more expensive than other tours, great ocean road tours by wine hop was Was worth the penny.... But over all, it was good.
