Jono went above and beyond to ensure that my family enjoyed Mornington and Great Ocean Road. He has been very accommodating to our family needs, and the little children also absolutely adored him! I would 200% recommend booking the private tour with Jono to anyone.

Jono (Good Time Tours) is a must if you are looking for something a bit bespoke and not your average trip out of Melbourne. Nothing was too difficult for Jono. From the suggested itinerary, the various pickups and then throughout the day, we had a knowledgeable local who shared his experiences with our group. Thanks Jono.... legend!

Organised this wine tour to celebrate a couple of birthdays from work. Jono was very approachable, accommodating and flexible in terms of letting us choose our lunch destination. Each cellar door was very welcoming as Jono knew some of the winemakers and introduced us to them. Jono even went as far as suggesting this gorgeous spot for a great autumn pic. Overall everyone absolutely enjoyed their time and we will most likely book Jono again.

We had an excellent trip to the Yarra Valley with Jono on Anzac Day. Nothing was too much trouble, from the initial enquiry the week before and arranging a tour that catered for the reduced mobility of two of our group. He was very flexible on the day as well. I would highly recommend touring with Jono.

Jono was the most amazing tour guide. He elevated our Yarra Valley wine tour experience. Great fun and well managed tour, he got us everywhere on time and took us to some great wineries. Would definitely roll with him again!

Jono took our Japanese group to Heathcoat wineries. Excellent private tour. Our guide Jono was incredibly knowledgable, cheerful and gave us a fantastic day! We learnt about history, culture, features and much more. He was well traveled and have flexibility, high standards, and we were very happy with Jono's tour - he had great memory and experience in Japan and all over the world, we also enjoyed chatting with him!

Jono was fantastic. From prior to the booking right through to the day, Jono was accommodating and a great communicator. Jono looked after us superbly throughout our wine tour in the Macedon Ranges. If you’re looking for a reliable and quality tour, hit up Jono!

We loved our 1 day winery tour in Heathcote. Jono had picked some great independent venues where you got to meet the owners and everything was well organised from start to finish. The bus was comfy and clean, price was very good value and Jono was a great host. Would definitely recommend!

I can’t say enough about how wonderful our experience with Jono was. It truly was one of the highlights of our 3 week trip in Australia. We really wanted an experience that was off the grid and intimate, and explore parts of Victoria that the “locals” would share with their friends. It was all that and more. Jono was the epitome of what you would want in a guide: knowledgeable, professional, engaging, and above all a down-to-earth demeanor that made you feel comfortable from the get go. His attention to detail from the gear, the hidden gems he shared with us, and his insights on Australian culture(s) were terrific. I cannot recommend highly enough! Jenny Beagle – Colorado

I went with a friend and had a fantastic time. Jono is professional, polite and has a great local knowledge. Really good camping gear, enough food. He allowed enough time for everyone to do things at their pace. Wilsons Prom is a really good spot and we did a lot, the day ended with Jono setting up the tents, marquee and sleeping bags. Sara P – Melbourne

I went to Wilsons Prom on small group tour with Jono and Clint and had the best time! The guides were fantastic, and kept the itinerary flexible to suit our preferences and energy level. Everything from camping equipment to food (and sunscreen!) is taken care of, so you can just relax and enjoy the stunning scenery. I highly recommend Good Times Tours and can’t wait to do other tours with them! Linda H – Finland

Jono runs a fantastic trip. Everything is covered, all you have to do is walk and enjoy. He has an excellent knowledgeable of the area. We hiked the Great Ocean Way for 2 days, then, on Jono’s suggestion, went over to the Grampians for a day. Hiking was wonderful, camping comfortable and easy (saw koalas at Aire River and kangaroos in Grampians) Deborah S – North Carolina
