Tom made the day so fantastic and we couldn't recommend anyone higher for your first experience out to Phillip Island. The knowledge he passed on, the little jokes he made here and there made the day so memorable. To top it all off, Tom essentially dropped everyone back to their hotel so no one had to walk far at night time. Thank you Tom.

David N ensured our trip was safe and memorable, and his dad jokes are hilarious. His knowledge of the native animals and history provided insight. The tour ran smoothly due to his excellent driving skills, and his care about our comfort on the bus. When we get to a rural area, David can drive and spot some animals at the same time! How Impressive is that! However, there is a family on our bus that arrives 17 minutes late to the first meeting-up time, and the driver decided to wait. I understand they have paid as well, but the fact that there is no consequence for them makes everyone who is on time or early feel it is unfair.

Our guide Rhys was fantastic and made the whole experience very enjoyable. A great mix of humour and knowledge kept us well entertained and informed. The little penguins were amazing. Rhys also gave us some great pointers for the best way to see the parade.

A sea of seals & penguins

As you drive away from the bustle of Melbourne to the tranquility of Phillip Island, relax in an air-conditioned coach as seascapes pass you by, setting the stage for an exciting escapade. The tour takes you first to the Nobbies Centre, a remarkable marine discovery hub where you'll expand your knowledge about local marine wildlife and enjoy an unbeatable view of Seal Rocks, home to about 16,000 seals, making it Australia's largest fur seal colony.

An enchanting evening with Little Penguins

As the day transitions into a sunset, brace yourself for the famed penguin parade. Watch these little creatures, the smallest penguin species standing just 33 cm tall, as they waddle their way across the beach to their burrows. Upgrade to premium viewing to enjoy a better perspective from the grandstand.
