About this tour
This 2-day coastal journey stretches across Victoria's most dramatic seaboard, moving beyond the standard hit-and-run itinerary. You'll base yourself in Apollo Bay for the night, allowing proper time at each stop rather than racing between them. Small groups (capped at 11) travel in air-conditioned comfort with a knowledgeable local guide who points out wildlife and navigates you through limestone cliffs, rainforest walks, and the famous stone stacks. Accommodation and water are sorted; meals aren't.
Highlights
- Bells Beach and Torquay's surf culture
- Erskine Falls waterfall walk through ferns
- Mait's Rest rainforest loop among ancient trees
- Twelve Apostles rock formations at sunset
- Loch Ard Gorge's sheltered cove and shipwreck history
What to expect
Day one takes you along the Surf Coast to Apollo Bay, stopping at Lorne, Teddy's Lookout, and Cape Patton. You'll walk Erskine Falls and explore Mait's Rest, a cool rainforest patch tucked inland. Day two focuses on the dramatic western sections—Gibson Steps down to the Twelve Apostles, then Loch Ard Gorge and London Bridge. Expect moderate walking (some steep steps), coastal wind, and genuine serenity because you're not herding with day-trippers. The guide shares local knowledge about geology and wildlife you'd miss solo.
Good to know
Bring layers and sturdy walking shoes; weather changes fast on the coast. Moderate fitness required—there are flights of steps and uneven terrain. Meals aren't covered, so plan cafés in Apollo Bay and towns along the route. Service animals welcome.
