Book online and enjoy exclusive savings on G Adventures 10 Day South Australia, Melbourne & the Great Ocean Road. Let’s be frank, we’d need a heck of a lot of time to be able to see everything Australia has to offer, and sometimes we’re just not afforded that luxury. But fret not, fellow adventurer, because this 10-day tour will take you on a jaunt from Adelaide to Melbourne, with a mix of must-see highlights and unique experiences along the way. Learn about the coffee culture of Melbourne, check out Victoria’s beaches, travel along the Great Ocean Road, and a whole lot more.
