Fantastic 5.0
one of the best tours I’ve had. Luke was the driver and tour guide. He was highly knowledgeable and fantastic. I wish I had a few more days in Melbourne to book Luke for another tour. The tour (itinerary) itself was amazing and Luke made it even more memorable. I’ll definitely be telling my friends and family about how great the experience was. we started off at the Moonlit Sanctuary and fed wallabies/kangaroos. The highlight was spotting the wild wallaby as we drove to the penguins. The best part was seeing the little penguins come up from the beach and waddle up into the grass. the gift shop was great too. It was a sunny day but definitely windy. the gift shop had great embrodied jumpers and zip ups as well as blankets to purchase. I love the penguin parade. Great thank you to Luke for making it so fun too. We listened to his playlist and he sang.

Amazing experience. This is my 2nd time to book the Philip Island tour (first one was from another tour company) and this is way better than the 1st one I booked. The guide, John, was very engaging and entertaining. He told us interesting stories on the places we visited. Even told us a lot of fun facts of the animals native to Australia. Time for each location is just enough (not rushed). He is also very efficient, too. Took our orders in advance (optional) so we didn't have to wait long for our lunch. Also took our penguin parade tickets ahead so we were able to enter the venue while other tours are still outside on queue. I highly recommend this tour.

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.

I had such a wonderful time on the Puffing Billy Train & Penguin Parade Tour and a big part of that was because of David Hsu - An Amazing Tour Guide & Driver! From the very beginning, David gave us such a warm welcome and took care of everything throughout the day. He was incredibly knowledgeable and shared interesting stories and information in both English and Chinese, which made the trip even more enjoyable. He was also excellent at managing the timing of the whole journey — everything felt smooth and well organised. And he even helped take photos for us like a professional photographer! As I was travelling solo, I was a little worried that the trip might feel lonely, but David made sure everyone felt included and comfortable. He brought so much positive energy and happiness to the group. He is more than just a professional tour guide — he genuinely cares about the people he travels with. Thank you, David Hsu, for making my solo trip such a happy and memorable experience!

It is a good journey to spend time with your love ones, fellow family members. From a light bush-walk in the Dandendong Ranges, highlight comes in as you travel on the Puffing Billy Railway, overview on top of the Sky High Mount Melbourne, never forget to participate in the wine tasting session in Rochford Winery. I would say suitable for youngs and elders. P.S. Honours must come to our beloved tour guide/driver Joe Chan who is considerate and funny. 我十分推薦與摯愛和家人一同度過美好時光,絕對是一段絕佳的旅程。從Dandendong Ranges輕鬆的叢林漫步展開,途中搭乘Puffing Billy Railway帶來精采高潮,在Sky High Mount Dandenong Melbourne俯瞰壯麗全景,最後千萬別錯過在Rochford Wines參加品酒會。這條路線無論對年輕人或長輩都非常合適。特別感謝我們親愛的導遊兼司機 Joe Chan,他既貼心又幽默風趣,絕對功不可沒!

We spent the whole day observing the animals, and our guide was incredibly professional, providing detailed explanations at every stop. At Maru Koala and Animal Park, they introduced us to each animal individually, even knowing their personalities and relationships with one another! The island was full of wild animals, making the entire trip surprising and delightful.

Had a great time on this tour! We visited Brighton Beach, rode the Puffing Billy, and ended the day with the Penguin Parade. 🐧 Everything was well-organized and the whole experience was smooth and enjoyable. Definitely recommend! ⭐️
