  Great Ocean Road and Grampians tour

 Verified Best Private tour by Richard
Great experience with Richard. He’s absolutely hilarious and takes great effort to find koalas and kangaroos. Richard is also really knowledgeable with the roads, getting us to the destinations with shortcuts. Be wary of the $1 fee per kangaroo found and the snakes in the car (I’m joking) Absolutely worth it, especially if you don’t have the time to do this yourself.

 Verified Excellent Experience with Bibly Tours - Private Tour, Great Ocean Road
We were travelling as a family (of 4) from India, with Melbourne being one of the major stops on our Australia tour. We wanted a private Great Ocean Road experience rather than the usual coach tour. After exploring several operators, we came across Bilby Tours. The itinerary looked comprehensive, and after our first conversation with Max, we booked almost instantly! The experience was absolutely superb. Max is an incredible guide who introduced us to so much about Australia’s history, culture, geography and wildlife that we hadn’t discovered during our entire trip. We came away with much more than just beautiful photographs. The itinerary is exceptionally well planned, covering all the iconic spots, including the lighthouse, chocolate factory and Twelve Apostles. Seeing hundreds of wild kangaroos and spotting koalas was another highlight. The lunch at the much-celebrated Greek restaurant was the cherry on top! One experience you shouldn’t miss is the 30-minute forest walk through a forest millions of years old. Max’s insights make it even more fascinating. The tour is customisable, so definitely ask to include it. I would wholeheartedly recommend Bilby Tours and Max. Even if you know how to drive, I’d suggest experiencing the Great Ocean Road with him. You may cover the same distance on your own, but you’ll miss out on so much knowledge, insight and memorable experiences. Thank you, Max, for making this one of the highlights of our Australia trip!

  Bilby Tours created a personalized Yarra Valley Winery Tour for our small group at a reasonable price.  They were wonderful to deal with and the driver Richard made our day great.  We went to the Yarra Valley Chocolaterie, two wineries (one for lunch) and a brewery.  It was so well organized.  Would use again in a heartbeat.

 Verified Great Experience
Everything was great. Max (the owner) was ready waiting for us at the hotel at the agreed time. The vehicle was comfortable and safe. When we arrived at Lake Mountain it was snowing, so very fortunate. The snow experience was great, loved the toboggan and building a snowman. And stopped at a chocolate factory in the Yarra Valley on the return drive. Highly recommend for those wishing to experience the snow. though not for those wanting to ski unless you know there has been heavy snowfall. I have no problems with using Bilby Travel again in the future.
