What a fantastic day trip! In the morning, we rode the famous Puffing Billy steam train, traveling through the forest and enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way. We also experienced the unique thrill of dangling our legs out of the carriage. In the evening, we visited Penguin Island to watch the little penguins return to their nests. Groups of adorable little penguins waddled from the sea back to their burrows, creating a heartwarming and unforgettable scene. Special thanks to our tour guide, whose service was incredibly professional, enthusiastic, and attentive. Throughout the journey, they not only provided detailed introductions to each attraction but also shared many interesting facts. They constantly looked after the needs of the group members, making the entire itinerary very smooth and relaxed. The steam train and the penguin parade are both highly recommended experiences, and with the guidance of an excellent tour guide, this trip was even more perfect. I strongly recommend it to anyone visiting Melbourne!

the arrangement is good in general, but there is insufficient time for us to explore the park at lakeside station. the tour guide even stopped the bus for us to watch the kangaroo in Philip island!

First-time experience, the entire trip was very comfortable. The tour guide translated between Chinese and English, so there were no language worries. There was plenty of time to take photos at each attraction. I highly recommend requesting this tour guide when visiting Melbourne!
