Super!

My sister and I are blessed to have Orlando as our guide. Orlando is very knowledgeable, funny, organized, drive well and took great pictures! The whole trip was about 12 hours but it did not feel like it.

The whole tour itself was very well-executed with multiple scenic stops, hunting for koalas and the place where we stopped for lunch had many interesting eateries and shops. We also had enough toilet breaks at clean toilets. I must say the price we paid is very reasonable, considering it was premium with small group and hotel pick-up (within CBD).

I highly recommend to visit the Great Ocean Road and to go with Hit The Road if you are visiting Melbourne. It was the highlight of our trip and I am sure it will be yours too!

Thank you Orlando and thank you HTR!
Great day out with RIO

Great trip with Rio, He provided heaps of knowledge of the areas we visited. We got to see a really good snippet of the area within a day. Even though we didn't have very good weather the whole time we still enjoyed our trip

I had a fabulous experience with Hit the Road tours. I chose the reverse itinerary and it was great to see the sights early in the morning and beat the crowds. Our guide Rio was amazing as well, very knowledgeable about the area and he let us have just the right amount of time at each stop. We even got to see koalas and parrots on the return trip.
