bothfeet Top 10

There are plenty of ways to experience the Great Ocean Road...walking is just one of them. Why should you choose bothfeet to help you experience this stunning coastline on foot? Well, here's our top 10 reasons...

Top 10 reasons for choosing bothfeet's Great Ocean Walks:

1. Walk with the Great Ocean Walk experts.  bothfeet is the longest established, dedicated Great Ocean Walk tour operator.  We are a licensed tour operator with Parks Victoria to use the Great Ocean Walk and are required to hold $10m Public Liability Insurance that covers our activities on the walk itself, not just the accommodation venue you stay at.
2. You stay at the new bothfeet walking lodge - Great Ocean Road is the best walking accommodation around.  It is a unique, state of art, purpose built walking eco facility that makes your Great Ocean Walk the Greatest.  It is exclusive to our walks, so joining a walk with bothfeet is the only way to stay.  Our resident Chefs have come from international backgrounds and bring a world class level of cuisine to your stay.
3. We guide all our walks.  Our expert guides walk the Great Ocean Walk track bearly every day of our season and have an intimate knowledge of every section of the trail, the weather, the tides, the oceans and the track variations.  That means we choose the sections of the trail best suited to you and share the stories of the region as we walk. 
4. Unpack once; carry only a day pack.  Beforehand, many of our hikers think they need to change accommodation every night on a walk.  Once they arrive, the relief of unpacking once, settling in and carrying only a day pack soon outweighs the convention of moving on. 
5. bothfeet walking lodge is located at the centre of the Great Ocean Walk trail, minimising transfer times each day.  We have a 4WD vehicle at the Lodge for emergency situations, if they arise.
6. You can have a single room if you're a single traveller.  Our room innovation means every one of our Green Rooms converts to two single rooms with a share bathroom between 2 people.  This means no hefty single supplements.  All our rooms offer this option, so groups of 10 friends can travel together and all have a single room each.
7. Your guides always carry a satellite phone, mobile phone and walkie talkie and we have a 4WD vehicle on standby at Johanna should it be needed for an emergency evacuation.
8. bothfeet works closely with Conservation Volunteers Australia to monitor and improve the walk quality of the walk experience.
9. All bothfeet Great Ocean Walks are advanced Eco Tourism accredited with Eco Tourism Australia and take environmental sustainability seriously in all aspects of our operations.
10. We are specially set up for groups be it, individuals joining a walk to meet new friends, or private groups of friends coming together to share the walk.  Our lodge and tours are designed around groups of 10 people and we offer discounts for groups of people travelling together.
