Not strictly, we may allow up to an extra 30 minutes as no one is perfect, and going overtime can happen. However, if an 8-hour tour ends up being a 9- or 10-hour tour then you will be charged overtime.

It is important to note that the driver is booked for 8 hours and longer hours of driving result in fatigue which is not ideal for the safety of the driver and passengers on board.

  • Customer Review - Alana C.
    ALANA C.We had an amazing time with AJ as our guide! He personalized our tour to meet our needs, and gave us a wonderful tour of beaches, 12 Apostles, seaside towns, and wonderful food! Also, made extra trips to get us coffee and playground time for my two kids. We visited places we probably would never have found on our own, and he was able to give us information about each and every place. I highly recommend this group to show you the Great Ocean Road! At the end of our tour my boys said, "We miss Mr. Matt"! It felt like we were parting ways with a friend!
  • Customer Review - Kristi C.
    KRISTI C.We had an absolute blast on our tour to the 12 Apostles with Sam! Being private we had a nice relaxing trip the entire time. Would definitely recommend.
  • Customer Review - Nicole J.
    NICOLE J.Everything was perfect with regard to our Great Ocean Road trip (Oct 18th 2022). From the outset, with the email communications, through to the trip itself on the 18th, and also subsequent emails post-trip, everything has been first class. Thanks Ami Tours!
