Penguin Parade-turer

Reiselederen Curtis var veldig entusiastisk, og i begynnelsen kunne man kanskje synes han snakket mye. Men han ga oss også tid til å hvile senere. Hele turen hadde god tid, og vi følte oss ikke stresset i det hele tatt, selv om noen gjester kanskje var litt forsinket. Opplevelsen med damptoget var veldig bra, og jeg ble overrasket over at vi satt på det i nesten 45 minutter. De fleste suvenirene trengte man etter min mening ikke å kjøpe; det var bedre å bruke tiden på å ta bilder og nyte utsikten. Da vi kom for å se pingvinene, ble jeg overrasket over at reiselederen, da han så jeg hadde på meg skjørt, spurte om jeg frøs og ga meg en varmepute. Jeg er ikke en person som fryser lett, så jeg ga varmeputen til vennen min som fryser lett. Jeg anbefaler på det sterkeste å kjøpe luksusseter, for når du ser dem komme i land og deretter dra tilbake, er du nesten bare to håndflater unna dem, noe som er veldig verdt det. Enda mer overraskende var den stjerneklare himmelen; utsikten kombinert med pingvinene var virkelig 100 poeng. Tusen takk for denne opplevelsen.

Thanks our tour guide and driver Stuart. He is really kind and helpful. He always reminds us everything, even which toilet is cleaner. We have enough time to take photos and walk around each place. It is my first time to visit Australia with family. We are happy to have him to be our guide. However, i have something to remind you guys. It is highly recommended to have a great breakfast before you take on the travel bus. Your next meal would be around 5:30pm probably.

Overall, the tour was good, although the itinerary felt a bit rushed. There were so many places to visit, but not enough time to fully enjoy each one. The highlights of our trip were definitely the rainforest tour and the Puffing Billy experience—they were absolutely superb! I’d also like to give special recognition to our tour guide, Mr. Joe Chan. He was incredibly kind, friendly, and accommodating throughout the trip. He went above and beyond by helping us take photos and videos, making sure we captured wonderful memories together. We truly appreciated his thoughtfulness and exceptional service. Thank you, Mr. Joe Chan, for making our experience even more enjoyable. Kudos to you!

I really enjoyed this tour and appreciated how much effort Matt put into making the experience fun and informative. He shared lots of interesting information about Melbourne and Phillip Island, plus gave plenty of helpful recommendations before the tour ended. The itinerary was well-planned, and we had enough time to enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. Matt even managed to squeeze in some extra spots so we could see kangaroos, wallabies, and other animals along the way. The Puffing Billy Railway ride was a nice experience, the views at The Nobbies during sunset were absolutely beautiful, and the little penguins were incredibly cute!! 😄

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.

Had a great day on this tour! Vance was punctual, friendly and knowledgeable on and shared lots of interesting info throughout the journey. We started at Brighton Beach for some cute instagrammable photos with the iconic rainbow bathing boxes, followed by the Puffing Billy train ride with its stunning scenic views. There was also enough time at the various stops and we even got to interact with some wild animals along the way. The Penguin Parade was a lovely way to end the day - real cute creatures! Highly recommend for first-time visitors to Melbourne! 😊

Dette var en fantastisk opplevelse! Guiden vår Ben er superhyggelig og kunnskapsrik. Han ga oss interessant informasjon om Melbourne og dyrene (spesielt de små pingvinene). Han klarte også å disponere tiden veldig bra, slik at vi fikk nok tid til å nyte utsikten og se på dyr, samt spise middag osv. Jeg vil på det sterkeste anbefale denne turen, og takk Ben for en fantastisk opplevelse!

This tour by Go West was a fabulous experience. Our tour guide, Mark, was very attentive and responsible, and he talked a lot about the history of Australia. The sanctuary was very cute, and even though it was raining, I had an enjoyable time. the penguin parade was definitely the highlight of the day- seeing penguins swim up from shore and going back into their burrows. remember not to take photos as your phone screen light might make them disoriented - let’s do our part and be good humans
