The best trip in Melbourne for us so far. The driver was very friendly and helpful. He took his time to explain in details about the spots that we stopped. I don't want to spoil all the beautiful spots that we stopped by but the meet with the Kangaroos is unforgettable. Overall, it was definitely a 5 star trip
