Things to do in Nobbies Centre (home of the Antarctic Journey)

Very nice experience with Jose! Memorable trip in Melbourne

we got sufficient time for all the spots and thx to our tourist guide William! He is a hilarious, helpful and warmhearted guy🤣 He helped us take photos and even brought us to an extra spot for stargazing. He wiped the car window for us so we can easily see animals on the car when we’re on Philip Island. Highly recommended!!!

It’s a long day out of town, so definitely pack some snacks and drinks for the ride! You’ll be spending quite a bit of time in the coach, but honestly, both Puffing Billy and Phillip Island were 100% worth it. The Puffing Billy train ride felt surreal — like being transported to another world. If you’re boarding from Lakeside, try to sit on the left side for better views (though the right side’s still nice too!). The ride is super calm and peaceful, and we loved waving at the locals along the way! Phillip Island was such a highlight. We arrived just in time to see the adorable little penguins waddling up to their burrows 🐧 Just a heads up — no photos or videos are allowed during this part, to protect the penguins. But seeing them up close as they made their way home was such a special moment. All in all, a long but magical day — highly recommend!

The tour guide curtis was friendly and good, serving as both tour guide and driver in his own hands. Very detailed explanation of the itinerary, and different places to be aware of places, time will not be very rushed. At the end of Penguin Island you can see many little penguins very happy. Since it was past eight when we got back to the city after the trip, he would recommend us what restaurants were good for the evening. Then we went to a recommended Chinese restaurant and ice cream shop that was really delicious. 10 points recommended.

The tour guide Curtis was great - he spoke English, Mandarin and Cantonese - three languages in turn! Will tell Tips and will explain the content but will give us time to rest! The place we went was very good, the Rainbow House was so deserted that we were able to take a lot of photos. The train was very lucky to be seated with the family, and was taken super many photos, and there were many passages to greet passers-by! Finally, Penguin Island is where you can really see penguins, small and cute!

The tour guide Curtis is very serious! The whole itinerary is very tight, but very satisfying. You don't have to drive yourself (there are no street lights on the whole road from the penguin parade at night, and there are kangaroos in the conservation area at any time), and you don't have to rush there by yourself, you can have a good trip! Recommended~

Take the Puffing Billy steam train for a nostalgic journey through the rainforest in an hour, leaving unforgettable memories. The natural beauty of the Summerland Peninsula is full of surprises, and watching the penguins return to their nests at sunset is well worth it.

we loved out tour guide, would recommend. his name is scott. brought us to even destinations that werent stated on the itinerary. beautiful scenery and had a great time. too bad there was a no photography policy for phillip island. nontheless it was a good time. worth it!!!!
