Description

If you love animals and want to see amazing Australian wildlife up close, then this is the tour for you. Meet koalas and watch the incredible Penguin Parade on this jam-packed day trip to Phillip Island.

Description

We'll meet at the Hotel Windsor in Melbourne and head to Phillip Island, a natural paradise that is home to a wide variety of wildlife species.

Our first stop will be at one of the animal sanctuaries on this Australian island. During this break, we'll visit the Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park, a perfect place to see koalas and kangaroos in their natural habitat.

Next, we'll head to the Nobbies, on the western tip of Phillip Island. Not only does this point offer magnificent views of Westernport Bay and Bass Strait, but from here we'll have the opportunity to see Australia's largest colony of fur seals - a unique experience!

Our next stop is Penguin Parade, where the real stars of the show are the penguins. These dressed-up animals gather in groups near the beach to reach their burrows - more than one of them will be amused by their peculiar way of walking!

After the Phillip Island tour, we'll return to the meeting point in Melbourne, 12 hours later.

Derk fue tan amable! Nos llevó a todos los sitios muy bien y nos fue contando la historia de Melbourne mientras. Nos guió y nos contó todo sobre los pingüinos, canguros, koalas... fue un guía que hizo la experiencia mucho mejor. La excursión vale muchísimo la pena, vas a diferentes sitios y acabas viendo cómo los pingüinos salen del mar. Aunque el día sea caluroso, recomiendo llevar una chaqueta buena porque por la noche hace frío! Translate this opinion into English.

Derk was so kind! He took us to all the places very well and told us the history of Melbourne while he was there. He guided us and told us all about the penguins, kangaroos, koalas... he was a guide who made the experience much better. The excursion is really worth it, you go to different places and end up seeing how the penguins come out of the sea. Even if it's a hot day, I recommend bringing a good jacket because it gets cold at night! Opinion translated. Show original.

Foi uma experiência ótima. Nosso motorista foi pontual e muito simpático. Ponto negativo para a limpeza do micro onibus que não estava lá essas coisas... No mais, fizemos diversas paradas, sempre com informações sobre o lugar, tempo de permanência, tudo muito agradável e bem explicado. Recomendo. Translate this opinion into English.

It was a great experience. Our driver was punctual and very friendly. Negative point for the cleanliness of the minibus, which wasn't there... Furthermore, we made several stops, always with information about the place, length of stay, everything very pleasant and well explained. I recommend. Opinion translated. Show original.
