After two big days of travel, we enjoy a casual start this morning. Departing Hamilton, we travel to
the coastal town of Portland, Victoria’s first settlement. Enjoy spectacular scenery and learn of
the towns history as we ride on board a lovingly restored Cable Tram. After lunch we take a tour
of the Portland Maritime Discovery Centre with displays documenting the region’s rich maritime
history. Centrepiece of the museum is the 1858 Portland lifeboat, famous for its role in the
Admella rescue of 1859. The lifeboat is one of the oldest remaining unrestored intact vessels in
Australia, possibly the world. Our journey takes us along the coastline to the charming fishing
village of Port Fairy where we pause to enjoy some free time. This afternoon we arrive in
Warrnambool where we check in to one of the town’s finest motels for the next two nights.

This morning you are treated to a full hot and cold breakfast at the motel before heading to
Allansford Cheese World & Museum. Owned and operated by the Warrnambool Cheese & Butter
Factory, Cheese World is the cellar door outlet for their award winning Warrnambool Heritage
Cheddar cheese range. Sample some delicious cheese and learn of the history as you explore the
museum. Next, we stop to admire the views at Logans Beach Whale Viewing Platform then stroll
through the Heritage Listed Gardens and peruse the gift wares at Fletcher Jones Market. Our next
stop is Flagstaff Hill Maritime Village, a fascinating historic precinct that includes the state
heritage listed Lady Bay Lighthouse, Warrnambool Garrison and a 1870s coastal port with an
entire town. Enjoy lunch at the Stella Maria Tearooms followed by a guided tour of the heritage
village. As a special treat, we get to meet the famous Maremma dogs that protect the Penguins
on Middle Island in Warrnambool, as seen in the Australian movie ‘Oddball’. This afternoon we
return to the motel for some well earned down time. After an early dinner at the motel, we
wander back across the road to Flagstaff Hill to witness the ShipWrecked Sound & Laser Show.

Day 5 – Wednesday 10th May 2017
BLD
Enjoy another hot and cold breakfast before setting out for a magnificent full day exploring one
of Australia’s most spectacular coastlines. As this is a Great Ocean Road tour, we think that it is
important that you get to spend as much time as possible seeing the spectacular sights, so that
is what we will do! Please note that you will be on and off the coach a bit today as there is a lot to
see but it is well worth it. From Warrnambool we start our journey along the Great Ocean Road,
pausing to admire the Bay of Islands and then London Bridge. We stop for some morning tea in
Port Campbell then continue on to see Loch Ard Gorge. Our next stop is at the Twelve Apostles
Visitors Facility where you can follow the interpretive displays along the boardwalk to the viewing
platform to see the famous limestone stacks. After lunch at Lavers Hill, we continue on to the
seaside village of Apollo Bay located at the foothills of the mighty Otways. Finally today we arrive
at our Skenes Creek motel, superbly located on the Great Ocean Road overlooking the ocean.
Motel: Skenes Creek Lodge Motel, Skenes Creek VIC
Day 6 – Thursday 11th May 2017

Today our journey continues along the Great Ocean Road, hugging the coastline as we travel
through Lorne, Aireys Inlet and Anglesea. Stop to see the famous Bells Beach, an internationally
renowned surf spot before reaching the end of the Great Ocean Road in Torquay. Take a scenic
drive around the port town of Geelong, Victoria’s second largest city. After lunch, continue on to
the historic town of Euroa, nestled at the base of the Strathbogie Ranges and former site of the
National Bank robbed by the Kelly Gang in 1878. Our day comes to an end as we arrive back at
our Wangaratta accommodation where we enjoy our last nights dinner together.
