    The river cruise was nice a pleasant the hosts and the commentary was on point. The boat was clean and neat. The skydeck was jaw dropping the 360 view of the Melbourne the city skyline. The snacks and drinks sold up there were promptly and professionally prepared and served.

    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.

    Loved the whole experience. The staff and facilities are awesome, reasonably priced souvenirs and the penguin experience very special indeed. I particularly liked the walk along the boardwalk which gave you very close views of the penguins heading home. Beautiful also watching the sunset before putting the camera away and just enjoying the night.

    The trip itself was great. Very scenic, many stops to take photos and walk around, friendly driver. The prep to get on the bus was a bit of a headache as the company sent us the incorrect pickup location, time, bus number, and driver name so getting on the bus in the morning was a headache.
