Excursão de um dia para Puffing Billy e Phillip Island Wildlife

Didn't expect Puffing Billing rides was an 1 hour ride and sit till backside pain but lucky can sit back to relax instead of hanging legs outside. Good experience but the view are mostly forest. Very friendly peoples who will have when passby. Penguins Island was a little dissapointed cos the penguins did not come in mass and only a few here and there. But highlight was the sky which can see lots of stars!! Note: Didn't have lunch and quick dinner at Penguins Island restaurant. Lastly Thanks to the Tour Guide whom is thoughtful and share us some jokes to keep us laughing.

This Puffing Billy and Phillip Island Penguin Parade 1 Day tour was absolutely worth it from start to finish. Everything was well-organized, smooth, and packed with unforgettable moments. Riding the historic Puffing Billy Railway through the lush forests felt magical, and the views along the way were just stunning. The highlight of the day was definitely the Phillip Island Penguin Parade. Watching the little penguins waddle ashore at sunset was such a unique and heartwarming experience — something you really have to see in person. A special shoutout to our guide, Simon, who truly made the trip exceptional. He was funny, friendly, and kept everything running perfectly on time while making the journey fun and engaging. You can tell he’s really good at what he does and genuinely cares about the group’s experience. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting Victoria — it’s a full day of memories you won’t forget.

Matt has been fabulous as a guide. Shared important info on the trip to puffing billy and Phillips island. Recommended food options available during stops which I felt the timing given to enjoy each experience of the day trip fantastic. A little disappointed that I didn't get to witness a larger group of the blue penguins coming out of the sea, but along the walking track, did see many instances of the little cuties.

Lorraine foi uma guia adorável e simpática, explicando e compartilhando muito sobre Melbourne, as cordilheiras Dandenong, a história do trem Puffing Billy e curiosidades sobre a vida selvagem em Phillip Island. Nós realmente aproveitamos o nosso dia, é uma experiência que você não deve perder ao visitar Melbourne.

O Martin é o melhor guia turístico de todos os tempos! Ele é incrivelmente simpático, humilde e conhecedor. Ele explicou tudo com clareza e prestou atenção em cada detalhe, tornando toda a experiência agradável e fácil de entender. Obrigado, Martin, por tornar este passeio tão memorável. Cada lugar que visitamos tinha a sua própria história, e a sua paixão tornou tudo ainda mais especial. Recomendo muito este passeio a quem visitar Melbourne!

Tivemos a verdadeira bênção de contar com um guia turístico e motorista incrível, o Sr. Simon. Ele foi informativo, profissional e maravilhosamente bem-humorado, tornando cada parte da viagem agradável e cativante. Acredito que todos os nossos colegas de ônibus se divertiram muito graças à dedicação, atenção e ao serviço excepcional do Sr. Simon durante todo o passeio. Agradecemos especialmente pela recomendação de experimentar o peixe com batatas fritas (fish and chips) no Phillip Island Penguin Centre — estava delicioso! Também gostamos muito de avistar os wallabies selvagens perto de The Nobbies, o que tornou a experiência ainda mais memorável. Obrigado, Sr. Simon, por tornar a nossa viagem tão agradável. Com certeza recomendamos este passeio para nossos amigos e familiares!

Cheguei à área às 9h47 e não havia ninguém por perto, então fiquei bastante estressado(a) por não saber o local correto de embarque. Seria bom se o e-mail pudesse incluir uma foto do ponto de encontro. Tirando isso, foi o melhor passeio que fiz até agora. O passeio de trem foi razoável. É bom para vivenciar como um turista de primeira viagem na Austrália, especialmente porque nosso país não tem trens a vapor em funcionamento. Queria que tivéssemos tido mais tempo na loja de souvenirs em Puffing Billy. Começou a chover a caminho de Philip Island. Estava muito, muito frio, então minha mãe e eu saímos da área de observação bem rápido depois de avistar alguns pinguins. Não são permitidos vídeos nem fotografias. O uso de guarda-chuvas ou ficar em pé também não é permitido. Eles são bastante rigorosos com isso para que não assustemos os pinguins em seu habitat. Nosso guia Simon foi o melhor. Nos manteve entretidos e interagiu conosco, certificando-se de que todos estavam bem.

Thank you, Matt for being our wonderful guide. Puffing Billy ride was very enjoyable with beautiful views along the way. Seating on the train railings was a great experience. Matt also a very safe driver and slowed down the vehicle a few times for us to see and take a photo of the wild animals closer. His recommendation of golden fry fish and chips and also dimsim is delicious. The Penguins is very cute and adorable, seeing them out from the water and walking was a unique experince.

Terry delivered a solid tour on 2 Dec 2025. He knew his country well, stayed patient and kept the mood light. The Puffing Billy train ride was the highlight. I spotted an echidna, several kookaburras and many brown bunnies. He also brought us to scenic places that showed the region clearly. Dinner was fresh fish and chips at one of his favourite spots. The Penguin Parade gave a close view of the penguins returning to shore and it felt special to watch. I left with good memories and would recommend this tour for a smooth and enjoyable day.

Graemes was wonderful. He was really friendly and welcoming. His commentary was interesting too. Puffing Billy was better then I remembered when I last came in 2010. Peguin parade was great too. The little wonders were really cute. However, there were some visitors who did not follow instructions and used their cameras with flash despite multiple reminders and that almost spoiled the whole experience. Might be challenging for people with poor night vision. Temperature is really freezing but still an amazing experience.
