Passeios por Brighton Bathing Boxes

A wonderful 12-hour tour. The driver-guide Michael knows his job well and talked us through the history of Melbourne and loads of other information. He's also sociable and kept everyone entertained throughout. Got to see lots of precious animals on the tour.

Today was the long-awaited Puffing Billy and Penguin Parade day tour!!! We met at Spencer Street at 9:30 AM, and our first stop was the Brighton Bathing Boxes! We took so many beautiful photos! It truly lived up to its reputation! We finally checked it off our list! Afterwards, we set off for Puffing Billy! An hour's drive, a unique experience! In between, we opted for a self-funded visit to a farm called Maru, where we got up close with kangaroos, which was so much fun! (We stayed for 1.5 hours) Then we headed off to see the penguins! We waited for an hour, securing a good spot for a close-up view. The penguins were so cute and tiny! A foreigner next to us described the entire parade as "fascinating," and I think that's very apt! Definitely worth the price of admission (=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Finally, a big thank you to our guide and driver, Uncle Steven, for giving us such a wonderful experience! Thank you!

Overall, the tour is nice. We booked an English tour, but the tour guide spoke Chinese throughout. Although he gave us an English guide to read, we still felt excluded from the tour.

This trip was well worth the money. We had an amazing guide named Jess that was very knowledgeable and kept an upbeat energy for the entire day. We were given a good amount of time to explore each stop and opportunities to see wildlife. Highly recommend this tour!

The driver and tour leader are nice and friendly, they explain everything about Melbourne city, and the drivers are on time for picking us up.

Such a fantastic experience to join the tour to Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park. We arrived at the park right at the opening time and were able to purchase an additional ticket to join the koala encounter.

I've always wanted to ride the Puffing Billy steam train and experience dangling my feet out of the carriage, but I never had the time and tickets were hard to get. This time, taking advantage of my trip to Melbourne for Yixin's graduation ceremony, I wanted to arrange something. I happened to see this tour online, and it was perfect for us! It included a Puffing Billy experience, a walk along the beach cabins, a visit to the Serendip Sanctuary to see cute platypuses (Perry!), and wine tasting at a winery. Plus, with bus transfers, we didn't have to drive ourselves, so we could enjoy the wine without worry! Although the weather was unstable with intermittent rain, the experience on the steam train amidst the misty mountains during a light drizzle was even more special! Our driver and guide, Curtis, was very professional and made our whole family's trip incredibly enjoyable. This is a fantastic itinerary, whether for a family outing with children, a group of friends, or couples/partners – everyone will have a rewarding experience!

The trip is by Wine Hop & Coastal Tours. Our guide's name was Philip (Phil) and he managed the trip exceptionally well. He shared a lot of information through the microphone in our tour van and was incredibly cheerful throughout the day. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip to Brighton Beach, Moonlit Sanctuary, Phillip Island, and the Penguin Parade. 🫶🏻 Despite intermittent rain, my friends and I had a wonderful time. Please ensure you arrive at the pick-up spot on time for a smooth journey 👍🏻
