Phillip Island-এ করার মতো জিনিস

Even though I bought the cheapest tickets, I was incredibly lucky this time. We saw a group of little penguins (15 to 20 of them) come ashore and waddle along the beach back to their homes. Despite many people watching, I could clearly see them cleaning themselves and interacting with their companions. It was also quite novel to have seagulls fly so close to the audience. Combined with the sunset, it truly made me appreciate the beauty of nature. Since we visited at the end of June, the entire event started earlier, with entry around 4 PM. After watching their parade, it was about 7:30 PM, which left us time to go to a nearby restaurant for dinner. It was delicious, a perfect day.

অসাধারণ একটি অভিজ্ঞতা। ফিলিপ আইল্যান্ড ট্যুর বুক করার এটি আমার দ্বিতীয়বার (প্রথমবার অন্য একটি ট্যুর কোম্পানির মাধ্যমে করেছিলাম) এবং এটি আমার প্রথমবারের অভিজ্ঞতার চেয়ে অনেক বেশি ভালো। আমাদের গাইড জন অত্যন্ত মিশুক এবং বিনোদনপ্রিয় ছিলেন। আমরা যেসব জায়গা পরিদর্শন করেছি, সেগুলোর ইতিহাস সম্পর্কে তিনি আমাদের অনেক আকর্ষণীয় গল্প বলেছেন। এমনকি অস্ট্রেলিয়ার স্থানীয় প্রাণীদের সম্পর্কেও তিনি আমাদের অনেক মজার তথ্য জানিয়েছেন। প্রতিটি জায়গায় থাকার সময় একদম ঠিকঠাক ছিল (কোথাও তাড়াহুড়ো করতে হয়নি)। তিনি অত্যন্ত দক্ষও বটে। আমাদের দুপুরের খাবারের অর্ডার আগেই নিয়ে রেখেছিলেন (ঐচ্ছিক), যার ফলে আমাদের খাবারের জন্য বেশিক্ষণ অপেক্ষা করতে হয়নি। এছাড়া তিনি পেঙ্গুইন প্যারেডের টিকিটও আগেই সংগ্রহ করে রেখেছিলেন, যার ফলে অন্যান্য ট্যুরিস্টরা যখন বাইরে লাইনে দাঁড়িয়ে ছিল, আমরা তখনই ভেতরে প্রবেশ করতে পেরেছিলাম। আমি অত্যন্ত জোরালোভাবে এই ট্যুরটি সুপারিশ করছি।

Our guide Rhys was cheerful and funny. He is always waiting for us on time and his introduction was clear and informative. The minivan was comfy and clean, but it would be better if there is overhead storage for each passenger.

আমাদের গাইড ক্রিস খুবই চমৎকার ছিলেন। তিনি চমৎকার রসবোধের সাথে দর্শনীয় স্থান এবং প্রাণীগুলো সম্পর্কে অনেক আকর্ষণীয় গল্প শেয়ার করতে পেরেছিলেন। নিশ্চিতভাবেই এই ভ্রমণটি আমি খুব উপভোগ করেছি।

Fulfilling tour. Every spot is timed so you get to see all the sites but with limited time. We departed 12.30pm and returned 11.30pm. Our bus was of medium size, around 25 people which was comfortable and helped us move quickly. Puffing Billy was a cute experience. Just skip shopping and board immediately to secure a seat on the “better” right-hand side of the cart. Penguin experience was amazing, you can see them really up close. We get the PREMIUM PLUS SEATS. But Premium seats are not really necessary though you can upgrade to easily see penguins coming from the beach. if you are under General Admission, it’s best skip the beach and just directly stand on the broadwalk on the right-hand side and wait for them there. It’s one of the penguin highways they'll definitely walk pass. Keep in mind photos/videos are NOT allowed to protect the penguins. Overall very fulfilling day. Our guide Troy was very helpful too. highly recommend ,oh and we c WILD wallaby, echidna, and snake as well!!!

​I can truly recommend this tour and would do it again in a heartbeat! We got to do and see even more than expected, and it never felt rushed at all! For example, we even did a lovely walk through the rainforest. ​Riding the historic Puffing Billy was truly special, and the little penguins are just super cute! A great tip for the penguin parade: it is well worth staying a bit longer. Many people leave after 10 minutes, but if you stay, the crowds thin out and you get a much better view. ​Our guide, Matty, was amazing—a true local full of insider knowledge who even shared a custom website with top Melbourne recommendations.

Views are beautiful! We saw wild penguins and kangaroos. I had an amazing time on this tour, and our guide, Jared, was absolutely outstanding! He is remarkably professional and has an incredible depth of knowledge about Australian history. Throughout the trip, I asked him so many questions, and he answered every single one effortlessly—even backing up his explanations with fascinating data and facts. Jared was also incredibly polite and thoughtful. When it came to watching the penguins, he shared some fantastic tips and strategies that helped us get the best experience possible. Even though it was a long 14-hour day, it felt completely engaging and fulfilling from start to finish. I learned so much from Jared today. I highly recommend taking a tour with him!

Our guide, William, made the whole experience seamless from pick up to finish. He gave a detailed itinerary the night before and updated us on everything throughout the trip. The tour was a great way to do many things in a day. I tried looking for a way to get the Puffing Billy train tickets but it was way simpler to have it part of the tour. There were various discounted extras during the tour for the wine tasting, lunch(the beef was tasty and tender), and Maru Koala which I thought were good deals. The vehicle was a smaller 13person bus/van so it was a more personalized tour as well. The penguin parade is also later at night due to daylight savings, so it was very convenient to have the leisurely ride back to Melbourne. Overall had a great time.

we have spent a wonderful day with Vicky from Autopia. my best tour in Melbourne with 31 other tourists. Philip island was full of surprises from koalas, wallabies, huge birds & most importantly the penguins. so lucky to be able to witness the whole vaccination process done professionally.
