Great Ocean Road Tour starting in Melbourne runs in a Mercedes V-Class people mover with a vetted chauffeur. The day is yours to design — we suggest a 4-5 stop itinerary on request. From $1295 for the day, up to 8 hours / 10 hours quoted on the day.
Three reasons a Melbourne customer keeps booking TransfersX instead of going back to rideshare: the Sprinter (Mercedes Sprinter (11-seat or 16-seat)) is the same standard every time, the fare from $1295 doesn't change between the booking and the receipt, the chauffeur is dispatched specifically to the job and not playing the platform's allocation game. That's the model. Everything else is consequence.
The Sprinter fleet runs as Mercedes Sprinter (11-seat or 16-seat), seating 11 passengers and 11 bags. For great ocean road tour bookings, this is the vehicle profile that handles the load correctly — not under-sized, not over-sized, not the closest car the rideshare algorithm happened to allocate.
Same online booking flow at 4am as at 4pm. Live fare estimate. Apple Pay, Google Pay or card. Confirmation in your email within seconds. No phone tag, no ‘we'll call you back'.
Corporate accounts pay monthly with a single tax-invoice line per booking. No per-trip splits, no tipping reconciliation, no ‘driver receipt' photographs. Compliant for travel-policy reporting.
Our chauffeurs live where they drive. Melbourne corridors, the one-way networks, the kiss-and-fly drop at the right terminal. Local knowledge is built into every quote.
"Booked a Great Ocean Road day for visiting in-laws. Range Rover, vetted chauffeur, eight hours on the road. Stops at Bells Beach, Lorne, the Twelve Apostles, Apollo Bay for lunch. Driver knew which lookout to stop at and when. They'll remember this trip."
— Greg, South Yarra"TransfersX for the annual board meeting offsite at the Yarra Valley. V-Class for eight people, driver knew the back-roads through the cellar-door route, dropped at the venue, collected the next day. Stress-free."
— Phillip, Williamstown"Yarra Valley tour for four. V-Class for the day. Driver knew every cellar door we wanted, suggested two more we hadn't heard of, got us home before sundown. The fact that no one in the party had to be the designated driver was worth the price alone."
— Sandra, CBDThe chauffeur on a great ocean road tour booking is in jacket and tie, briefed in advance, dispatched specifically to your job. There's no driver-app rating shuffle, no marketplace allocation; the driver who pulls up is the driver you booked. Same person from pickup to drop-off; on multi-stop bookings, same person all day. Stand-by between stops is included in the rate; no idling fee, no per-stop fee.
Vehicle class is guaranteed by booking. If you booked a Sprinter (Mercedes Sprinter (11-seat or 16-seat)), a Sprinter (Mercedes Sprinter (11-seat or 16-seat)) arrives — not whatever the closest car happened to be. The vehicle has been detailed that morning, refuelled, pressure-checked, and reviewed for cleanliness before it leaves the depot. The chauffeur signs off on the vehicle before the booking; if there's a defect we send a replacement, not the customer's problem.
Communication is handled by the booking, not by the customer chasing the driver. Confirmation lands in your email within seconds of booking. A reminder fires 24 hours and 2 hours before pickup. Live tracking on the chauffeur's progress to the pickup is shared with the customer if requested. WhatsApp +61 415 555 542 if anything changes mid-booking — not a chat-bot, the team that runs your job.

Yes. The great ocean road tour day is private — we suggest a 4-5 stop itinerary on request, but the day is yours to design. Tell us the venues you'd like and we'll plan the route. Changes on the day are fine if you'd rather extend a long lunch.
A Sprinter (Mercedes Sprinter (11-seat or 16-seat)) comfortably seats 7 plus the chauffeur. For larger groups we run dual V-Classes or upgrade to a Mercedes Sprinter (11-16 seat). Both options quoted via WhatsApp +61 415 555 542 on request.
Tell the chauffeur. Great Ocean Road Tour days are extended at the hourly rate on request, same chauffeur, same vehicle. No surge is applied. Most extensions are confirmed in under a minute, and the additional time is added to the same invoice rather than settled on the day.
No — lunch is at your discretion and paid direct to the restaurant. We're happy to recommend lunch venues along the route and book a table for you in advance. The chauffeur waits during lunch as part of the day.
