and Rainforest Day Tour

One of the first stops was at the Memorial Arch. This was a great place to stop off and get those “I’m on the Great Ocean Road” snaps with the archway sign being a popular place for tourists.
This isn’t a spot I felt the need to spend a lot of time at though, as there are so many more views to be seen throughout the day but it got me excited about the day ahead.

For lunch, which is provided, we stopped off in Apollo bay which has a range of stores to buy souvenirs and places to eat or just enjoy the beach on a warm day. This was our last stop for shops so was a good opportunity to stock up on snacks for the road ahead.
The scenery begins to change quite drastically as you make your way from sunny coastline of Apollo Bay to temperate rainforest. Otway’s Rainforest was a great place to stop to get some fresh air while exploring the rainforest walkway. The trees towered above me with some being over 100 years old and the air had a freshness you just don’t get to experience anywhere else. Such a peaceful and relaxing place.

The last stops for the day were Loch Ard Gorge and London Bridge. Loch Ard Gorge is thought by many to be just as good, if not better, than the Twelve Apostles themselves and has a great story behind it. This was definitely one of my favourite places of the whole trip although I can’t quite decide if I like it more than the Apostles or not!

This trip really was an amazing experience and I found so much value in having a tour guide who could tell me about the story behind each place. Now I will have to start planning my next trip away.
