A great way to get close views of Little Penguins - Great day, It was wonderful up grade to the Ranger Tour at Philip Island as be so close the Little Penguins. I have done a larger group tour in the past but much preferred being am a small group Tour. Walter, out driver gave lots of information along the way

Penguin parade - Terrific day of koalas and the penguin parade. Nice tour of Phillips Island. The penguins emerging from the ocean at night and making their way to the burrows was enchanting. Seeing ignorant tourists shoving their camera phones in the penguins faces despite being repeatedly told not to by park rangers was disgusting.

Little Blue Penguins - Seeing the little penguins arrive on the beach was one of the best days of my entire life and I am over 70!!!
The tour was before seeing the penguins was great. We stopped at a wildlife place on the way to Philip Island. Also a stop before the bridge for lunch
The driver was very caring and good, explained things

3day/2night customised tour - This is our 2nd tour with Walter. We did a customised 3 day/2 night tour of Phillip Island and Mornington Peninsula. Walter is a fantastic and knowledgeable tour operator. Any request we had to customise our itinerary was no trouble for Walter and he also added in a few extra sightseeing places! He has a fantastic sense of humour and we had lots of fun. He showed us many places and told us things that we would never have known about if we had been travelling ourselves in our car. I would highly recommend Walter and his many different tours.

A memorable day! - This tour was so much fun. Walter did a great job not only driving but giving us information and answering questions but the real stars of the day were the animals. Feeding the Kangaroos and Wallabies, and of course the penguins! What a day. We were lucky to see LOTS of penguins return in the evening and the vocalizations were incredible. Phillip Island is a treasure and Walter does a nice job of making sure we got to see all of the natural wonders while honoring the fragility it the ecosystem and what is being done by the rangers. We had such a great time and unfortunately it was our first tour of the trip so all other tour will have a lot to live up to.

I recommend this for older children (not preteen) and bring a jacket! - Long day and the kids were very tired at the end. They provide lots of sightseeing and the guide was terrific. I wish we had been forewarned about how cold and windy it was going to be so we would have brought jackets. The final piece of seeing the penguins was miserable because we were all so cold.

Disappointing trip - The service was over rated.
The around about tour to philips Island
The bus was small n stuffy and very uncomfortable throughout the long journey.
The driver speaking can't be clearly heard behind. The fish & chip we ate for lunch was very disappointing 😞 and very pricely rated. It is worse than singapore Fish & co. 😕Â
The penguin hardly be seen with paying such a price.
