Things to do in Melbourne

Arrived the area at 9.47am and there was no one around so I was quite stressed about not getting the correct pick up location. It would be good if the email could include a picture of the pick up point. Other than that, best tour I had so far. Ride on the train was okay. Good to experience as a first time tourist in Australia, especially since our country does not have operating steam trains. Wish we had more time at the gift shop at Puffing Billy. It started raining on our way to Philip Island. It was very very cold so my mom and I left the viewing area very quickly after spotting some penguins. Video and photography is not allowed. Neither are umbrellas or standing up. They are quite strict on that so that we do not startle the penguins in their habitat. Our guide Simon was the best. Kept us all entertained and interacted with us, making sure everyone was alright.

We had an amazing Great Ocean Road tour with Mr. Philip! We visited the stunning London Bridge, Twelve Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge, Razorback, a wildlife park, forest highway, kangaroo farm and Apollo Bay. Every stop was breathtaking and well worth the visit. Mr. Philip provided exceptional service throughout the trip. He was punctual, professional, friendly, and kept the entire tour well-organized from start to finish. He shared interesting information about each destination and made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the experience. We truly enjoyed every moment of the journey. The itinerary was well-planned, the timing was perfect, and everything ran smoothly. Thank you, Mr. Philip, for making our Great Ocean Road trip such a memorable and enjoyable experience. Highly recommended!

We had a great family visit to SEA LIFE Melbourne Aquarium. The kids loved the penguins, sharks, and underwater tunnel, and there were plenty of interactive exhibits to keep them entertained. The aquarium is clean, stroller-friendly, and easy to explore with children. It can get busy, but overall it’s a fun and educational attraction that’s well worth visiting for families with kids.

Everything is absolutely perfect. We didn’t expect to have this kind of trip and having a good value for money. The overall experience is good and we will try again to book a similar tour to recommend friends and family members. The overall experience is good. I would love to have more time for great spots like the 12 apostles from 45 maybe an hour. Its perfect for me and worth the 5 stars

Diverse exhibits: The museum combines natural history, science, Australian social history, and First Peoples culture under one roof. Dinosaur Walk: A standout attraction featuring impressive dinosaur skeletons and interactive displays that appeal to both children and adults. Forest Gallery: An immersive indoor living forest with native plants and wildlife. Bunjilaka Aboriginal Cultural Centre: Engaging presentation of Aboriginal history and living culture.

This is an amazing experience that you should definitely try if you plan to travel in Melbourne. Our tour guide Tony was informative and gave insights on each of the destination areas. Highly recommended!

Our tour guide, Curtis, was very enthusiastic. At first, he seemed a bit talkative, but he also gave us time to rest later on. The entire tour had plenty of time, and we never felt rushed, though some guests might have been a little late. The steam train experience was excellent; I was surprised we rode it for almost 45 minutes. I personally think most souvenirs aren't necessary to buy; it's better to use that time for photos and enjoying the scenery. When we went to see the penguins, I was surprised that the guide noticed I was wearing a skirt and asked if I was cold, even thoughtfully giving me a hand warmer. I'm not someone who gets cold easily, so I immediately gave the hand warmer to my friend who does. I highly recommend buying the deluxe seats because you'll be incredibly close to the penguins, almost within arm's reach, as you watch them come ashore and then return. It's absolutely worth it. Even more surprising was the sky full of stars; the scenery combined with the penguins was truly a perfect 100. Many thanks to the tour for this wonderful experience.

The ride on the Puffing Billy steam train was truly impressive! Sitting on the open carriage window sills, dangling our legs outside, and feeling the breeze while passing through lush green forests was such an exciting experience! The penguin parade was incredible! I was grateful to see around 60 penguins—on average, about 700 penguins come out to the island each day. Australian penguins are the little penguin and irresistibly cute! I was also delighted to see baby Cape Barren Geese; they are utterly adorable! Our tour guide is knowledgeable and cares for our basic needs such as going to the bathroom and having our meals during the day. I highly recommend wearing enough clothing because Philip Island is very windy.

Phillip Island is truly a mesmerizing place to visit. The tour guide was incredibly humorous, telling lots of jokes during the drive. He also shared interesting cultural and historical insights along the way.
