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!
Ricky L. was the tour guide and he did great job at managing the expectation of each timing for visiting different location (Puffing Billy Train - Maru Koala Animal Park - The Nobbies & Philip Island Penguin Parade).
Was so awesome! I'm a solo traveller, the bus was really spacious and Simmon was accomodating, condiderate and overall great! Nice view, i got emotional riding puffing billy I literally cried all my myself thinking how good life has been for me. Nobbies lookout was also good and the ever cutest little penguins!!!! 🇵🇭🇦🇺🛤🚉💨🐧
This tour worth every penny you spent. Driver and tour guide Evan is bilingual, he speaks in Mandarin and English. Evan is nice and informative. The itinerary and introduction of everything he provided is clear. we go puffing train railway directly, and spent 2hrs there including having lunch by ourselves. Taking the train is so much fun! If the weather is good, the view is super nice! We love it a lot. The train took around one hour from Lakeside to Belgrave. Then we headed to the Maru Koala animal park. Evan bought the group ticket for everyone, it costs $30 per person cheaper than the original price $33. The zoo has many animal, like kangaroos, white kangaroos, koalas, quokka, alpacas, dingoes, sheep and some reptiles. We can get so close with animal and take selfie, it was a great experience and we enjoyed a lot. Definitely will recommend this tour to everyone visiting Melbourne. The puffing train is one of the must do thing in Melbourne.
Taking advantage of the nice weather, I spent a whole day touring with our handsome driver-guide, Andy! His explanations and arrangements were spot-on. We rode the miniature train for an hour, which was a great experience. The zoo is a bit small, but fortunately, we got to see some cute koalas that weren't sleeping. Finally, watching the little penguins return home at the end was just adorable!
Reasonable price for a whole day trip to experience Puffing Billy train ride and the viewing of penguins return at Phillip Island. There’s a stop at Maru Koala & Animal Park in between and you can choose to pay to go in or not. It’s a big group of 50 people from different countries. Our tour guide Evan did a good job of safe driving and giving information in English for all to understand. I had a great time joining the tour as a solo traveler.
Daniel was the best guide we could have asked for. Accomodating, friendly, goes out of his way, funny, and his english is very well spoken. Along the way he gave us many tips for the different attractions and showed us interesting videos that he took himself on his previous trips. Kudos to you Daniel, thanks for the best day of my trip so far.
We had a wonderful day tour to Puffing Billy, Animal Park and Phillip Island! Everything was well organised and handled with great care. Special thanks to our coach, Evan, for his excellent service, patience, and professionalism. We truly enjoyed the experience and highly recommend this tour!
