Lil Penguins Magic!!! - Penguin Plus experience was fantastic.. We have seen them many times in different locations and each was unique.. The Penguin Plus experience, we were seated on an elevated platform were we could see the Lil Penguins arrive from the Sea and waddle right past us on there way to their Barrow/Home, they communicate by chirping, honking,trumpet, it’s called a bray to there family to make their way back!! Fascinating experience!

A perfect wildlife experience - This was a perfect day trip while visiting Melbourne. The entire day was well timed with just the right amount of time at each stop. Our guide Mike was personable and full of information. The wine tasting with charcuterie, pizza and a light salad was delicious and a great opportunity to chat with the others on the trip. Our family (daughters 21 and 24 years old) really enjoyed the Koala Sanctuary. We saw several koalas, wallabies and a shy Copperhead snake just minding his own business and not bothered by us. Mike ensured that we got some great photos of wallabies in the wild on the drive to the penguin parade. The penguin parade was fascinating and we were happy to have the premium seats as the penguins walk by so close to our seats. It was such an experience and they are quite entertaining to watch. We highly recommend this trip!

Loved this tour - Fantastic tour. Rod was a great tour guide - really knowledgeable, fun and passionate about everything we did in the day. Pick up was convenient and the complimentary coffee was a good start to the day. Wine tasting was good fun at a stunning location on Phillip Island. Seeing Koalas in a more natural habitat was nice. Obviously the stars of the show are the penguins and Rod knew exactly where to go at the right time to miss the crush of the crowd but still see loads of penguins. A must do tour!

penguin Parade - the penguins are amazing… we loved the winery stop on Phillip Island as well. incredible to watch groups (waddles) come out of the water onto the shore, every night there are 950-1500 penguins who walk to their “homes” We loved our tour guide, Uri (sp?)

Long day but worth it - Arrived in Melbourne from US only one day earlier, with whacked out sleep schedule, so it was a very long day! Highlights were koala sanctuary (asleep but adorable), Nobbies (wallabies galour), and penguin parade (especially walking back to the center after the parade had begun). Highly recommended for those who don't want to rent a car and explore the area on their own.

Highlight of our trip - Watching the penguins come ashore was amazing! So many of them! It was a wonderful ending to a great day, which included wine tasting, a visit to a koala sanctuary which had a boardwalk so we could get close to them, and visiting more of the coast area near the penguins. Our guide was full of information, and was so helpful in getting my husband's wheelchair on and off the bus. This tour was one of the highlights of our 4-week trip.

Meal time was not... - Meal time was not perfect. after 2:30pm, but after the meal time, there was no meal time. I understand that the penguin parade will not start before sunset. but there may be better way to coordinate it. Also the guide tried to explain where to go to watch the show by mentioning to go left or right. He should have prepare the map to explain because no one has ever been at the sight
