Terrific package of penguin and Phillips Island experiences - The penguins and views were the stars - truly outstanding! And the tour package was wonderful too ensuring we saw highlights of the town of Cowes, tasted great wine and got up close to the local wildlife too. Our guide, Mike, was fun, knowledgeable and patient - everything we needed plus a surprise glass of bubbles! Thanks.

A great day/ afternoon not to be missed! - My partner and I had a great day. The winery was great and the wine tasting and food was amazing. Our guide Yuri was great fun, very friendly and a wealth of knowledge. Penguin parade is a must do and the facilities are brilliant. Especially the coffee at 9pm. We would recommend this as a great afternoon to anyone.

Lovely, small group tour.... - Lovely, small group tour. Enjoyed the camaraderie, our guide and the locations. Little glitch on locations due to public holiday, but they made it very enjoyable anyway.

Perfect penguin performance - Amazing experience all round, further enhanced by Jordan friendly nature and capacity to accommodate all requests. Jordan’s tips on getting the most out of our penguin experience were spot on. A great tour & lots of laughs.

Penguin Parade - Our Penguin Parade tour with Local Way Tours was absolutely great. Our driver/guide, Ray, had everything well organized from our wine tasting, to a pizza dinner, and finally the Penguin Parade. Had a great day...saw great scenery and too many wallabies and penguins to count. We were back to the tender pier in plenty of time. Would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Phillips Island.

Fantastic Day on Phillip Island - We did a full day tour of Phillip Island with dinner, wine tasting and the penguin parade. The tour was absolutely fantastic made all the better by our wonderful guide Ray. We took this tour as an alternative to those offered by our cruise ship. We saw so much more of the island and saved money. So many beautiful vistas, amazing animals and great stories. We would highly recommend Local Way Tours to anyone visiting Phillip Island or Melbourne.

Awesome Tour with Mike - Our family loved our tour with our guide, Mike! He kept a positive attitude throughout the entire experience, despite it being an all-day tour and hours worth of driving. He was always chipper, energetic, and a very safe driver. He also put lots of effort into customizing our tour, and accommodating stops we wanted to make, which is not something he was obligated to do but did anyways. He was timely in his pick-ups and drop-offs and had plenty of knowledge to share. Thank you, Mike!
