As I'll be travelling with my Dad, I hope to keep this trip relaxing and easy. So during the driving trip, probably there will be lots of rest at scenic areas. The downside is that we will probably miss some of other attractions but that is ok. The main highlights for us in this trip is The Grampians, 12 Apostles and Wine Tour.
Appreciate if you can give me some comments and also suggest any must-go places of interests.
Cheers mate.
