solo self-guided walk with Walk91 A big thank you to the Walk91 team for facilitating my fantastic experience walking the Great Ocean Walk! For a woman doing this walk solo, it was reassuring to have someone drop me at the trail head in the mornings, text to check in along the way, and to pick me up at the end of each day. Mark runs a highly co-ordinated set-up and was able to accommodate my requests to swap walking and rest days or to shorten some sections without any trouble. Mark, Rod, Brad, and Peter know every inch of the walk, and by the end of my trip they felt like old friends. The local knowledge that they shared during pick-ups/drop offs – e.g., the best places to spot koalas, help identifying birds, tips on where to eat, history of the area – enriched the whole experience. The places that Walk91 chose for me to stay were all top notch, with By Moonlight a stand-out (including a chance to see the bower constructed by the resident satin bower bird). The luxurious and abundant home-made food was a delight to look forward to after each day’s walk - the Moroccan veg stew and the peach cake with cream were especially memorable! I highly recommend Walk91 to anyone thinking of doing the Great Ocean Walk.Posted on Google

Knowledgable, friendly drivers.+4Posted on Googlechristina macdonald6 days agoMy sister and I completed the Great Ocean Walking Track with Walk91 and enjoyed every minute of the 6 days. The track is beautifully maintained and our driver was there waiting to collect us at the end of each day. The accomodation was excellent and had us revived and ready for the next day. We have no hesitation in recommending Walk91.+3Posted on GoogleCarolyn Wilson10 days agoTo Mark, Brad and team Thank you for an amazing experience over the last 5.5 days. We all enjoyed the walk and your support and coordination over the time was fantastic. The accommodation was spot on and the food exceeded our expectations. Brad was always on time to pick us up in the mornings and at the end of the days walking. His happy nature, local knowledge and sense of humour was much appreciated. It was a great way to experience the Great Ocean Road and the Otways From the Mallee Girls, South AustraliaPosted on GoogleKathryn Richards129 days agoWalking the GOW was one of the most amazing and rewarding experiences I have ever had.

Extremely well organised with great meals and very comfortable accommodation. A big thank you to Suzie our driver. The walks are varied, with great views and lots of wildlife. The pickup process was flexible and worked seamlessly. The paths in mid April were very quiet and well marked. Highly recommended the Walk91 team and experience.Posted on TripadvisorNomad29722226996139 days agoTrès professionnel Expérience géniale que ces 3 jours de randonnées sur le Great Ocean Walk, de Apollo Bay à Castle Cover, avec Walk91 ! Seule, j'ai adoré faire ces 55 km dans des paysages fantastiques et une météo de rêve. Et bravo à l'équipe de Walk91! des prestations très professionnelles, très sympathiques et efficaces. Excellent suivi avec sms, de bons conseils, logement extra et des repas délicieux pour tous les goûts. Inoubliable.Posted on GoogleBarb Gysel150 days agoIn March, my husband and I did a 3 night 4 day hike along the Great Ocean Walk with Walk 91 from Apollo Bay to 12 Apostles. We were thoroughly impressed with the way our hike was organized and customized. Mark, the company owner, and Susie, our driver, were friendly, easily available and communicative. Each day we discussed the terrain, other aspects of the hike as well as our desired length and where we would be picked up for transport back to our accommodation. The hikes took us through various environments and of course, we had many beautiful coastal views. The food provided for the second two nights was fabulous. We would definitely recommend this hike with Walk 91 as a unique experience in Australia. We will have wonderful memories to enjoy.Posted on TripadvisorSadlerhan162 days agoA challenging walk supported by a great local team We enjoyed a fabulous six-day self-guided walk supported by these guys and, as they promised, all we had to do was eat, walk and sleep! We were briefed promptly on arrival at Apollo Bay and were given very clear instructions and helpful guidance every day of the walk. The food was great and we were always picked up promptly and taken back to some great accommodation. We did the whole walk and it is challenging, but the team share your sense of achievement when you finish. loved it.Posted on TripadvisorSharon F162 days agoAn Epic Great Ocean Road Adventure with the Best Crew! I recently completed a 3 day, 63.5 kilometre hike along the Great Ocean Road in March with three awesome friends, and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience. It was the perfect blend of a physical challenge and a relaxing getaway. The scenery is simply stunning—we transitioned from wild, rugged cliffs, beach sections to deep forests, with plenty of wildlife sightings along the way. While the days tested our grit and endurance, the rewards were well worth it. What truly set this trip apart was the exceptional support of the Walk 91 crew, especially Susie. The team were incredibly flexible and professional, and the organisation was seamless. Returning to the comfort of the farmhouse each evening turned demanding trekking days into a relaxing and inspiring achievement. If you’re looking for a mix of camaraderie, nature, and superb hospitality, this is it!Posted on GoogleSharon Fraser169 days agoHi Mark and the Walk 91 Team, Our group of 4, had a wonderful time on the walk and very much appreciated the amazing scenery, flora and wildlife along the way. We were able to tick off almost everything on the fauna list, except for echidnas! GOR has been on my to do list for some time now and it didn’t disappoint in any way. Actually, it has me wanting to do more sections – Torquay, etc. I did find a couple of sections challenging, but still ploughed through to the end of the day (afternoon of day 2)! We all appreciated the flexibility, especially Susie’s patience, given our group took a bit longer to complete each day. In particular day 2 at Melanesia Gate and the huge final day when we could not complete the Wreck Beach section due to the "low" tide not being low enough to pass the boulders and therefore had to return to the start. Accommodation at the farmhouse was absolutely brilliant and such a fabulous choice for our group and food amazing. Only suggestion, and probably nothing you guys can do, would be to consider having a few more signs along the trail to give walkers / hikers a better understanding of approximate distances to various points along the walk. This would assist to give an indication of how we were going according to the finishing times, lunch stops etc. With many thanks for your organisation, communication and assistance, we were very pleased to be able to complete all sections of the walk as planned.Posted on GoogleCoogee Child172 days agoThank you so much Walk 91. Mark, Captain Peter, Susie and all the team at Walk 91, who run a well organised but flexible touring company. We did the 4 day Wild Side Walk (Cape Otway to 12 Apostles) and had some slight differences in abilities, but Walk 91 offered a few suggestions of how to cater for this by offering various lengths of walks, with different pick up points. Accommodation at 'By Moonlight' was awesome and the food was tasty and ample. Great way to do the Great Ocean Road walk. Thanks again to Walk 91, cant recommend them enough.Load more
