Čo robiť v Puffing Billy Railway

A MUST DO! Instead of Belgrave, we departed from Lakeside and stopped over at Gembrook. I dont know what I am missing at Belgrave but I am super thankful I chose Lakeside. Driving there was easy, parking spaces aplenty, station was nice with a cafe and a mini museum and just a walk or short drive you can get to the Lake area for a walk. Gembrook is a super charming small town too! We walked around and settled at a cafe called Gracie's and had some scones and hot drinks before we took the train back to Lakeside. I thoroughly enjoyed this trip because it was sooo peaceful. I highly recommend you try the same route too!

Jazda parným vlakom Puffing Billy bola skutočne pôsobivá! Sedieť na parapetoch otvorených vagónov, hojdať nohami vonku a cítiť vánok pri prechádzaní sviežimi zelenými lesmi bol taký vzrušujúci zážitok! Prehliadka tučniakov bola neuveriteľná! Bol som vďačný, že som videl asi 60 tučniakov – v priemere asi 700 tučniakov prichádza na ostrov každý deň. Austrálske tučniaky sú malé tučniaky a neodolateľne roztomilé! Potešilo ma aj to, že som videl mláďatá husí kapských; sú úplne rozkošné! Náš sprievodca je znalý a stará sa o naše základné potreby, ako je návšteva toalety a stravovanie počas dňa. Dôrazne odporúčam obliecť si dostatok oblečenia, pretože na ostrove Philip Island veľmi fúka.

Had a great time on this tour! We visited Brighton Beach, rode the Puffing Billy, and ended the day with the Penguin Parade. 🐧 Everything was well-organized and the whole experience was smooth and enjoyable. Definitely recommend! ⭐️

We had a fantastic experience on our Puffing Billy trip, and a big part of that was thanks to our wonderful tour guide, Joe. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole day enjoyable from start to finish. He made sure everyone was having a great time. We really appreciated his enthusiasm and professionalism. Thank you, Joe, for making our Puffing Billy trip so special! We would definitely recommend this tour, especially with a guide like Joe. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Najlepší zážitok, aký som mal v Austrálii! Veľká vďaka nášmu sprievodcovi, Peteovi, ktorý bol počas celého výletu neuveriteľne nadšený a nápomocný. Urobil pre nás množstvo videí a fotografií a cestou nám poskytol skvelé úvody. Naozaj sme si tento zážitok užili a veľmi si vážime všetko jeho úsilie!

one of the best tours I’ve had. Luke was the driver and tour guide. He was highly knowledgeable and fantastic. I wish I had a few more days in Melbourne to book Luke for another tour. The tour (itinerary) itself was amazing and Luke made it even more memorable. I’ll definitely be telling my friends and family about how great the experience was. we started off at the Moonlit Sanctuary and fed wallabies/kangaroos. The highlight was spotting the wild wallaby as we drove to the penguins. The best part was seeing the little penguins come up from the beach and waddle up into the grass. the gift shop was great too. It was a sunny day but definitely windy. the gift shop had great embrodied jumpers and zip ups as well as blankets to purchase. I love the penguin parade. Great thank you to Luke for making it so fun too. We listened to his playlist and he sang.

Návšteva železnice Puffing Billy bola skutočne úžasným a nezabudnuteľným zážitkom. Moja rodina si zamilovala scénickú jazdu vlakom cez nádherné pohorie Dandenong Ranges, ktorá ponúkala úchvatné výhľady na svieže lesy a pôvabnú vidiecku krajinu. Železnica Puffing Billy je povinnou zastávkou, keď ste v Melbourne. Jedinečná atrakcia, ktorá spája históriu, prírodu a zábavu.

we return this year after missing the opportunity to hop on this wonderful Puffing Billy Train last August as we unfortunately didn’t manage to secure tickets. It is advisable to book the train tickets in advance - we booked our Puffing Billy Train about 4 months prior to our August trip to Melbourne 😛

strávili sme krásny deň s našou sprievodkyňou Jess a spolucestujúcimi. veľký potlesk a poďakovanie Jess za jej mimoriadnu trpezlivosť a starostlivosť voči dvom mladým dievčatám, ktoré chýbali v mieste vyzdvihnutia. Jess prešla extra míle, aby sa vrátila do miesta vyloženia a všetci vystúpili z autobusu, aby spoločne hľadali dievčatá. všetko dobre dopadlo a celá naša skupina sa bezpečne vrátila do mesta bez toho, aby sme niekoho nechali za sebou. Jess dokonca prešla extra míle, aby nás natočila, ako sa vezieme v idúcom vlaku, a zdieľala to v skupinovom chate. toto bola určite jedna z mojich najpamätnejších túr v Melbourne.
