    Fabulous exhibition, beautifully displayed, however it was hard to read the large informational material on the walls, when the letters were a similar colour to the background colour, made worse by the dim light at these areas. The visit was a present for my friend'S 77th birthday and she's also thoroughly enjoyed it.

    We visited philip Island few days back. We witnessed little penguins to return to their natural habitat after day long fishing for their families. The season and day was not appropriate though. So we saw only a few. The nature park is well maintained and with necessary amenities.

    My friend from Canada had seeing Litlte Penguins on her bucket list and she was not disappointed! We drove from Melbourne, had a great seat and watched them roll in. Then on the way up the hill she got to almost stand beside two who were waddling up the hill. You wish you could bottle the glee she had. She gave the trip 1000/10. All the staff was kind and we even enjoyed the light rain, the sun on the hills and the glorious rainbow before the sun went down.

    The day was wonderful - from the welcoming driver: Marty: to all aspects of the tour. Marty shared interesting and informative commentary during the trip. He also provided very clear instructions for access and egress at all destinations. He remained close by at all venues to assist with questions from the group. The small group enabled people to meet with each other extending camaraderie. All personnel within each venue were friendly and helpful. A highly recommended experience.
