Best tour guide ever

We had an absolutely amazing time on our tour to PuffingBilly and to the penguins. Lachie was an incredible guide who filled the day with so many fun facts and humour. He had every member of the group engaged and enjoying every moment. I’m lucky enough to have experienced Lachie as a host twice now and if we could request a particular guide I would totally do another trip with him. Best value for money and the best experience.

One of the best trips in my life!

I was on this trip in January but didn’t share my review earlier. Catching up now! It was the most amazing day I could’ve imagined! Gary- the tour guide- was so professional and friendly. I experienced the beauty of Australia during the steam train ride and had so much fun! 🤩 the whole itinerary was wonderful and I truly recommend the penguin premium option for a truly unforgettable experience! Thank you! Thanks to this experience I still continue using the app. So positively surprised I was!

Puffing Billy

Puffing Billy was great……absolutely loved it……but not much to do before going to the penguins. A few stops, and some interesting local information. Unfortunately the weather gods were not on our side and it rained just as the penguins were coming ashore. Despite being told multiple times to not use umbrellas or take photos, everyone around us did which made it difficult to see anything. Pretty disappointing.

Respuesta del operador

Hi Allie, we really appreciate your feedback! It is great to hear you loved the Puffing Billy adventure, even though the weather tried to put a damper on the penguins. We're sorry to hear about the umbrella and photo situation overshadowing the experience a bit. It is frustrating when some guests do not follow the guidelines. Your insights are important to us, and we'll keep them in mind to improve our next tours. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Allie.

One of it’s kind, a must do tour from Melbourne.

Got to spend the day with our tour guide, Stuart, who was absolutely phenomenal. He provided detailed and engaging commentary throughout the entire trip, explaining every area we traveled through and always giving clear directions whenever we had free time to explore on our own. Our group consisted of seven people, and every single one of us agreed that Stuart elevated an already incredible experience to another level. Highly recommend him! The Puffing Billy Steam Railway through the rainforest was the perfect length and truly unforgettable. The scenery was breathtaking, and the train itself was fantastic. Many passengers chose to sit on the ledge with their legs dangling outside the carriage — completely safely, of course, as that’s part of the authentic Puffing Billy experience. For those who prefer to stay seated inside, the seats were very comfortable and didn’t take away from the experience at all. The Penguin Wildlife Tour was a genuine bucket-list experience. Coming from Canada, seeing penguins in the wild is something we simply don’t get to experience back home. Most of our group, myself included, upgraded to the Penguins Plus package, and it was absolutely worth it. We were seated right on the beach and witnessed hundreds — possibly over a thousand — little penguins waddling right past us, only feet away. It was incredible. Even after about 30 minutes, we had already watched four separate waves of penguins come ashore. On the walk back to the main building, several hundred meters from the beach, we were still able to walk alongside these amazing little animals as they waddled up the hillside toward their burrows. Photos and videos are not allowed because penguins are extremely sensitive to light, and protecting their environment is important. Honestly, though, this experience is something that will stay with me forever regardless. I HIGHLY recommend Explore Australia and especially Stuart to anyone considering this tour. Thank you all for an unforgettable experience! Best regards, Mike from Canada

What a joy it is to read your amazing review, Mike! 😊 We are absolutely thrilled to hear that Stuart was able to elevate your experience and make the day unforgettable for you and your group. The Puffing Billy Steam Railway truly offers breathtaking scenery, and we are so pleased you found it memorable. The Penguin Wildlife Tour sounds like a dream come true, especially for someone coming from Canada, and we are delighted you enjoyed the Penguins Plus package. Witnessing those little penguins up close really is a bucket-list experience. Your recommendation and lovely words mean the world to us. Thank you for choosing Explore Australia Tours, and we hope to welcome you back for another incredible adventure soon! 🐧🚂✨

Very interesting and...

Very interesting and exciting experience, for puffing billy stream train, recommend to sit inside as the view will be better than sitting near to the door side. Feel very lucky to have good weather during the day. Saw quite a number of penguins during their way back to their nest, no photos nor videos allowed to protect the wildlife. Food inside the visitor centre slightly expensive and only can pay by cards.

Respuesta del operador

Ka Yun, thanks so much for your review 😊 We are so glad you had a great day and were lucky with the weather — that always makes the experience even better. Great tip as well about seating on Puffing Billy.🚂 It is wonderful to hear you saw plenty of penguins returning to their burrows — such a special moment to witness. Thanks again for travelling with us 🐧
