  It is very rich for the tour operators to "recommend" tips for their employees, in a country where the minimum wage is touching $20 per hour. Though it seems to be targeted at foreign tourists rather than domestic residents, encouraging a practice that isn't widely carried out provides tourists with the wrong impression about Australia and its way of life.

  Let's have a look at their itinerary now:
  - Rainforests
  - Port Campbell NP
  - 12 Apostles
  - Gibson Steps
  - Loch Ard Gorge

  None of these destinations require an entrance fee.

  To be honest OP, you could do the "tour" yourself, with a bit of savings under your belt and a reliable set of wheels.

    ANY set of wheels really. Just hire a car for the day - it's much better than sitting on a crappy bus

  As side note - are there still bush fires going on along the road? Maybe be careful.
