♦ APT was founded in 1927 when the current
owner’s father believed money could be made
in one of two businesses: funerals or buses. He
opted for buses, building a bus body on a tray
truck after a tram strike affected Melbourne.
It was an inspired move that saw the company
evolve into coach tours and the APT of today.
♦ APT’s longest serving employee is APT
owner and hands-on director Geoff McGeary,
with 52 years of dedicated service. The next
longest has been with APT for 39 years.
♦ Guests on APT’s popular European River
Cruises certainly work up an appetite. On
a typical two week cruise, APT customers
consume 840 litres of milk, 1500 litres of
wine, 6300 eggs and a tonne of meat.
