The Nobbies tours

Great value for money! We went to 5 different locations because the weather was nice. First were the bathing boxes at Brighton Beach (wish we had more time to go around though), then the Puffing Billy which is a fun experience when traveling with kids. After lunch, we went to Maru Koala and Animal Park which was a big surprise because we enjoyed it a lot. Lastly, we went to The Nobbies and the Penguin Parade in Phillip Island. Our bus driver and tour guide, Curtis, was very good, helpful and accommodating. Overall, would recommend this tour here in Klook!

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.

Views are beautiful! We saw wild penguins and kangaroos. I had an amazing time on this tour, and our guide, Jared, was absolutely outstanding! He is remarkably professional and has an incredible depth of knowledge about Australian history. Throughout the trip, I asked him so many questions, and he answered every single one effortlessly—even backing up his explanations with fascinating data and facts. Jared was also incredibly polite and thoughtful. When it came to watching the penguins, he shared some fantastic tips and strategies that helped us get the best experience possible. Even though it was a long 14-hour day, it felt completely engaging and fulfilling from start to finish. I learned so much from Jared today. I highly recommend taking a tour with him!

Our guide, Chris was wonderful. He was able to share many interesting anecdotes on the sites and animals and with a great sense of humour. Definitely enjoyed this trip a lot.

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.

we have spent a wonderful day with Vicky from Autopia. my best tour in Melbourne with 31 other tourists. Philip island was full of surprises from koalas, wallabies, huge birds & most importantly the penguins. so lucky to be able to witness the whole vaccination process done professionally.

We had a wonderful trip to Phillip Island guided by James. James slowed down the coach to help us spot the Aussie wildlife along the way. He told us a lot about their habits. After arriving at the visitor centre, he suggested the best route to spot the little penguins. The penguins were adorable. On the way back to Melbourne, James also gave us some recommendations of local coffee and snacks. We all had a great time.

A great tour to experience the wildlife at Phillip Island, including the Penguin Parade and surrounding natural attractions. The coach bus was comfortable, and the overall journey was smooth and well-organised. A nice touch was the complimentary coffee at the pick-up point near the Melbourne Arts Centre, which made the early start more enjoyable. Our guide, Sue, was fantastic throughout the trip. The bus has an in-built microphone system, allowing her to share clear live commentary while driving, including interesting explanations about the route, history, and surroundings. The tour was also well-coordinated despite split groups—some headed for the seal-watching cruise while others went wine tasting. Sue managed both groups efficiently, setting clear expectations and ensuring everyone was well guided and on schedule. Overall, a very enjoyable and well-run experience with great wildlife encounters and a professional, attentive guide.

puffing billy is a must during Melbourne visit. 40mins from CBD. great experience. on the other hand, penguin parade in Philip island is a bit far. there are some closer beaches where you can see it also.
