We had a great time with Steve. Not only did we see the Tweleve Apostles, but also Loch Ard and the Razorback. Steve’s commentary was great. In addition we got to feed alpacas, tour a wildlife sanctuary (saw six koalas in the trees), and have a nice lunch. I highly recommend working with Steve.

Our group had a wonderful time on a Yarra Wine Tour provided by Great Private Tours. Steve (owner) was our guide and went the extra distance to show us a wonderful time.

We booked the Great Ocean Road tour and it was awesome. The 12 Apostles and private guided rainforest walk were incredible, as was the helicopter viewing of the coastline. Steve did an outstanding job providing commentary and history of the area. Highly recommend this tour.

Really wonderful communication, flexibility and value. Appreciate the team accomodating our various requests and providing a refund when our plans changed on one element of the tour - we didn’t even ask for it. Very unexpected and appreciated.
