This has been a most enjoyable 3 day tour. We have a small group of 13 people. Our guide, Janet Archibald or J Dogs as she called herself is just super. She is so knowledgeable and passionate about the land, the people and history. With good weather we were able to visit all the places that are listed for the tour. Janet shared stories about the places that we visited which made it more memorable. We saw 29 koalas, emu, dingo, wallaby and kangaroos. The Great Ocean Road did not disappoint and the hike to the Pinnacle was very enjoyable. Accommodation was fine, food was average, not many choice in the Grampians. But our guide Janet made these 3 days seemed shorter than it was. We learned so much from her and there was never a dull moment.

So glad we chose to do this tour. We got the best guide one could ask for, JANET aka J-DOG. She was absolutely amazing, she was like an encyclopaedia to most of the questions asked. We’ve learnt so much on the Aussie history and culture, there wasn’t a minute that we felt bored. It felt like we were on an excursion with a wonderful mentor. It was through Janet’s thoughtful actions and passion for her job that made our group feel like family. She was more than happy to go the extra mile rather than just going through the motions. Remember to ask for JANET if you’re planning to go on this tour.
Coooweee…GUMNUTS!

Janet was a great tour manager.
She provided us with information (about the itinerary) and background information on many areas as well as myths and stories throughout the tour, and also gave us tips for Melbourne/Adelaide.
Her many (personal) stories made the trip very entertaining. When she wasn't telling us facts, she played (local) music so that the trips were never boring.
She gave us as much knowledge as possible about Australia's nature and animals.
Thanks to her, everyone was also able to see beautiful landscapes, even if we couldn't do the Grampians Hiking Tour because some people had difficulty walking. I was really grateful for that!
All in all, the group had a wonderful time thanks to her!

The 3 day trip was an absolute blast from start to finish! Literally did not stop laughing. We saw so much amazing stuff and really enjoyed the hikes and different sights. Jordan was such a great guide, he's super knowledgeable and fun and has the best music taste (have been listening to lots of Hamish Imlach since the tour). He took us to loads of cool places and even gave us plenty of recommendations for Melbourne which we've been ticking off!
The bus vibe was super comfy and nice, and we got to meet a great gang of folk through the tour who we've kept in touch with heaps.
10/10 would recommend its a hoot!

Having heard so much from the Great Ocean Road. We were stunned what we saw after the 12 Apostels. It got even more beautiful the closer we got towards the Grampions.
Janet, our tourguide, was so motivated and excited all the time. We really appreciated her positive energy, her stories and recommendations. We‘d definitely recommend this trip to everyone.

Misty, you are a legend! I had such a good time during this wonderful trip. They say your guide makes the tour, and I think that's true. She showed as soooo many awesome places and was just in general a cool and chill person. The first day was only Great Ocean Road. We were so lucky with the weather during the whole trip. We had some breathtaking views and the whole group got along very well. We had dinner together that night and stayed in a really cozy motel. The second day was a short drive to the Grampians were we all managed to hike up a mountain together and enjoyed the views on top as a group. That night we had bbq together and watched the sunset with the kangaroos. I will never forget this trip and Misty made it so special. Thanks for all the laughs and shenanigans. Do not hesitate and book this tour!!
PS: look at all those chiiickens! (Laura)

Our tour guide Craig was awesome - he took us safely to all spots of the itinerary and some more and his knowledge about the region and history was unbelievable. The group was lovely (age around mid 20s to late 50s) and everyone got along well. Great Tour for solo travellers!
There was always a choice between an easier or more challenging walk. The accommodation (shared/basic) was clean and totally fine for the tour.
Unfortunately, we couldn't do the programme for the last day (walk to Pinnacle Lookout) due to bushfires but a safe alternative was organised.
