Get set for a tour of the Great Ocean Road! Best of all, you’ll get to see its most iconic sight at sunset. Along with a staggering view of the 12 Apostles as the sun dips over the horizon, you’ll also get to enjoy the other main attractions of the Great Ocean Road. Idyllic coastal scenery, mysterious local history, and world-famous sights are just some of what to expect during your Great Ocean Road sunset tour. Keep an eye out for koalas when you stop at the township of Kennett River, drive through the Great Otway National Park, and (time permitting) stop at Gibsons Steps to see two of the Apostles from sea level.
