Glen picked us up at our hotel and we were lucky enough to be the only couple booked that day so got a private tour! Unfortunately there was torrential rain and fog on day one, which disrupted our views, however Glen still managed to time our stops/adjust around the weather to make it an enjoyable day nonetheless. We tried to have a sense of humour about it and he even took us to a craft beer tasting as an alternative activity.
Spectacular dinner at Chris' and simple but decent cottage accommodation.
Did our rain forest walk in the morning and Day 2 was much better weather Glen made sure we had lots of time wherever we wanted to spend it; and we had spectacular views of the 12 apostles and coastline.
We highly recommend this tour to those looking for a more personal experience and a relaxed pace. Glen was an extremely knowledgeable and easy-going guide, and a very safe driver. (Someone in another review mentioned long silences but we appreciated having some quiet time vs having someone talking non-stop for 8-9 hours. ) The choices for meal stops were excellent and the mini-van was comfortable for the long days in the car. Thanks again for a great experience!

Pros: Hotel pickup; great communication; reasonable pricing; well planned itinerary; some hidden, special treats; wildlife, amazing views, fantastic dinner; lovely rest stops; small group; personal guide who is respectful and caring.
Cons: Uncomfortable van seats; long periods of silence (To explain further, I'm loquacious and I like tidbits of information as part of my tours. Glen, our guide is reserved, he offered interesting info at stops, but seldom spoke unless a specific question was asked, and no music or background noise to break the silence, this made day one very long and somewhat boring) We rode back with Eddie who was much more jovial and talkative, a better fit for our personalities; terrible accommodation selection - yes, great views but tired, old, dusty and unkept).

In late March, 2013, my wife and I had the pleasure of a 1/2 day Melbourne Tour and then followed up with a 1 day tour of the Great Ocean Road with Jeremy. What a treat and what a neat man!! We saw many of the sights of Melbourne on the 1/2 day tour and were able to decide where we wanted to return on the following day. A day later, Jeremy picked us up at our hotel for the Great Ocean Road Tour and we had a ball. He took us to places that we would never have found on our own. I had 5 Crimson Rosetta birds land on me for photo ops at one stop and we had a fabulous lunch in Apollo Bay at the Bay Leaf Cafe. Again there were experiences that we could never have imagined on our own. Jeremy is funny, extremely knowledgeable and full of anecdotes about the area specifically and Australia in general and, in short he was the perfect guide. Can't say enough about him, the tours and the sights. Score this event 11 out of 10.
