Chris H for CEO

James_B, Apr 2024

Chris H made this tour amazing and I’d highly recommend anyone who books with Bunyip - Gowest to ask for him! He was the tour. The bosses couldn’t give a damn about catering to numbers, not enough muffins to go around - 3 teaspoons which 25 ppl had to share some not speaking English. I was disappointed no lunch included for $155 too. Definitely seems like this tour could have included a cheap eat at Halls Gap. Anyway Chris H made it memorable and kudos to him!

Response from Host, Apr 2024

While we're delighted to hear that Chris provided an excellent experience for the reviewer, we are a touch upset that the reviewer would suggest that "the bosses couldn't give a damn about catering to numbers". Our morning tea kits are restocked by our depot hands, and if insufficient equipment was provided on the day of the reviewer's tour, we can assure you that "the bosses" were not involved in the under-supply. We will certainly be following up with the depot team to find out why this might have occurred and to ensure that the same error is not made again.

Lovely tour with Cloe and Mark

Marsella_M, Apr 2024

Nice, small group to the Grampians with Kloe and Mark. If you are from Asia, the waterfalls weren't amazing. Though it was nice to go trekking and have a little hike away from Melbourne. All the hikes were easy, the only strenuous one was the hike for Mckenzie Falls as the stairs were steep. But it was short, so not that bad. We also saw kangaroos in the wild and went to a few lookout points with nice sceneries. They provided breakfast with tea/milo/coffee and cake, which was very nice. Kloe and Mark were very friendly and helped us take photos throughout the trip.

Mountains close to Melbourne

Marta_A, Apr 2024

Grampians National Park is a must if you like mountains and only have a little time for hikes. Of course, there is some time in the car, but there are plenty of opportunities for hiking and experiencing incredible views. Rachel was our guide for this small tour (9 people) that day. She is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and kind. The group size was great, and we had enough time for bathroom breaks, water breaks, and food. It was also good to experience and see Australia while driving outside Melbourne. This is a much less crowded tour than the Great Ocean view, and there are many more opportunities to see kangaroos and different birds.

Rachael was an amazing tour guide. She was thoughtful, knowledgeable and funny. We had a blast learning about the animals and plants in the Grampians. The bus could use shocks and a front end alignment...

Beautiful and Spectacular

Mary_A, Apr 2024

Our tour guide was very informative, professional and made the day out to the Grampians a lot of fun, Thank you Bluey for a awesome day. Halls Gap is a beautiful township & the Fish n chips takeaway was a great place to have lunch, the servings of chips was humongous & the angus beef burger was second to none. Seeing kangaroos up close was also very special, as our tour guide took us to a oval where the kangaroos were feeding, we also saw Emus, Kookaburra's and Cockatoos. Silverbend Falls is a short walk through rocky track so good walking shoes with firm soles is a good idea, its a beautiful area. McKenzie Falls is truely an amazing waterfall and you could just spend a whole day there. All in all, the day tour at Grampians was spectacular, definitely 10/10.

The lookouts and waterfalls were worth visiting and wonderful, and the tour guide was friendly and professional.

Not recommended for fun lovers

Mehak_T, Mar 2024

The tour guide/driver was extremely rude with the customers. He literally shouted when someone got few mins late to return to the bus at any spot. I found it very disturbing as it kills the whole vibe and fun. Would not recommend this tour as there is absolutely no contingency in the schedule and all the operator cares about is their time to return.

Spectacular scenery at Grampians National Park

Hiking to all of the various viewpoints and enjoying the spectacular scenery. Seeing kangaroos up close

Jariwan_C, Dec 2023

Jon N wasn't just a guide, he was the heart and soul of our Grampians adventure! His knowledge, humor, and genuine passion for the park made every step more rewarding.

Amazing one day trip

Marina_L, Dec 2023

My husband and I had a great time. It was exactly what we were hoping for. Amazing nature and great viewpoints that we were so lucky to experience.

Go and see the Grampians!!

Sifat_U, Dec 2023

The Grampians National Park is a must see, absolutely stunning views and chance to see some wildlife in action too! Our tour guide Rachel was so lovely and well-organised, very easy to talk to and knowledgeable. Rachel was also very helpful in terms of recommendations for Melbourne city and other parts of Australia. Thank you Rachel and Laney for a wonderful tour!

good

David_K, Nov 2023

The hikes were well chosen but much too short. Too much time spent eating. The guide was engaging, friendly, could be a bit more informative re: park.

Great views

Malena_S, Nov 2023
