Excursion d'une journée à Puffing Billy et Phillip Island (visite chinoise de Melbourne)
Description
L'excursion d'une journée au Puffing Billy Railway et à Phillip Penguin Island est une combinaison de circuits très populaire à Victoria, en Australie. Tout d'abord, les visiteurs peuvent découvrir le Puffing Billy Railway, un train à vapeur historique qui propose un voyage fascinant à travers les monts Dandenong. Les voyages en train offrent non seulement une expérience nostalgique unique, mais vous permettent également de profiter de la beauté naturelle et des sites historiques tout au long du chemin. Ensuite, les visiteurs se dirigeront vers Phillip Island, célèbre pour sa parade des pingouins. Chaque soir, les petits manchots bleus reviennent de la mer vers leurs nids sur l'île. C'est le moment le plus spectaculaire de la journée. Les visiteurs peuvent observer ces petits pingouins revenir vers le rivage en titubant depuis la terrasse d'observation du parc naturel de Phillip Island. C'est une scène chaleureuse et magique.

David was an amazing guide; very informative, patient, considerate, and truly passionate about his work. He shared great insights throughout the Puffing Billy and Phillip Island tour, and his enthusiasm made the whole experience even more memorable. Highly recommend!
An unforgettable experience with an equally hospitable tour guide. Safe driving even in the craziest of rain showers! Visited several iconic locations in Victoria, making for a very memorable anniversary. Looking forward to the next year.
Our driver and leader Michael very professional and friendly, the day encountered steam small train bad without opening, he was also very helpful to help us take the day's journey, added a couple points, very careful explanation, very friendly attitude, although meeting the small train not opened, everyone very disappointed, but because of Michael's attitude, we are still in disappointment, have a very happy time.
We were incredibly fortunate to have David Chen as our guide. He was professional, patient, and trustworthy. His time management was excellent, and his explanations were clear and detailed. At every stop on the itinerary, he carefully explained all the important details and precautions, ensuring that everyone knew what to expect and how to stay safe. He also shared insightful information about the local culture, answered every question thoroughly, and made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. The vehicle was new, clean, and comfortable, adding to the overall comfort of the trip. (The day before, I called David to confirm the pick-up location, and he promptly returned my call, which gave me great peace of mind.) I highly recommend David Chen as your guide if you’re planning to join this tour!
We had an amazing time on this tour! Our guide, David Chen, was super friendly and really knew his stuff, making the whole trip to Puffing Billy and Philip Island so enjoyable. The steam train ride was such a fun experience, and seeing the penguins at Philip Island was absolutely unforgettable. Everything was really well-organized, and David went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and had the best spots to enjoy the views. I’d totally recommend this tour—definitely a 5-star experience!
A 10/10 wonderful tour! We had a great experience on everything listed on the itinerary and as scheduled. Bob is the best - he is very experienced and easygoing, always had a smile on his face throughout the trip, and went extra miles just to ensure we had the greatest possible experience. My parents have walking problems due to old age and Bob had been very considerate to accomodate their needs. I can’t recommend him enough. Thanks Bob! 非常尽兴又愉快的一次旅行！日程上的所有活动都很快乐的实现了。Bob非常的专业、友善和耐心，总是笑眯眯的，给我们讲解了很多有趣和有用的知识，给我们指出了更佳的观景点，路程中生怕有人不小心错过美好的体验，而多次重复提醒重要的信息，真的很用心。我父母年迈腿脚不便，Bob也多有照顾。整个旅程体验非常好，感谢Bob！
I want to thank and appreciate Mr. David Chen (bus driver/tour guide) for accomodating us during this trip. Even though we don’t speak mandarin he put in a great effort to communicate with us in English. This experience was really great for us especially my family coming from overseas to discover Australia/Melbourne/Philip Island. Once again. Thank you to Mr. David Chen and his company.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback on the steam train and Penguin Island tour. We are delighted to hear that you had a wonderful experience, especially with your family visiting. We greatly appreciate your recognition of Mr. David Chen's efforts to communicate in English and ensure that you had an enjoyable trip. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we will share your appreciation with Mr. Chen and our team. Once again, thank you for choosing our tour, and we hope to welcome you again in the future!
Overall tour was good, the train was exciting and the penguins were cute. Important point is that the tour guide only said Chienese for whole day even I chose English. The guide cannot say English well, so he made other customers to translate what he said - which was not correct though - and only informed me when to come back. I cannot understand any explanation that day and was disappointed. I lost the group few times since I wasn't informed properly about the plan. After the tour, I requested the partial refund for language issue but the tour guide answered that he used English, but due to my lack of English proficiency, I didn't understand what he's saying. WHAT? It's an insult to the customer, feeling very bad. Contacting several times via phone call(cuz I can speak English fluently), I finally got partial refund. Anyway, I recommend not to choose this tour if you cannot speak Chinese. I don't know why there's option for choosing English.
You communicated with me over the phone, and I understand the flow of our conversation. I agreed to give you a partial refund out of consideration for your repeated phone calls. However, once you received our money, what are you trying to prove with this matter? I hope you won’t use such tactics to write reviews immediately after getting what you want, as we have the ability to withdraw your application.
The Puffing Billy Trip was beautiful and the views were exhilarating ! The drive through Emerald and sights around the Lake were breathtaking and so refreshing ! So also the stop at Maru National Wildlife Park, the drive to the Nobbies & walk around, and the Penguin Parade - all showed us a side of Melbourne that we would never have imagined. An action- packed day out on the whole, well worth the cost of the Tour !! Our Tour Guide - Michael, was very informative, knowledgeable, entertaining and patient - making the trip twice as more enjoyable and memorable !!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such a fantastic time on the Puffing Billy Trip and enjoyed the stunning views of Emerald and the lake. It’s great to know that the visit to Maru National Wildlife Park, the Nobbies, and the Penguin Parade gave you a fresh perspective on Melbourne. We’re glad the day felt action-packed and worth the cost! A special thanks for highlighting Michael’s efforts as your tour guide. We’re happy he was able to make your experience even more enjoyable and memorable. We look forward to welcoming you on another adventure soon!
Michael was our guide for the day. He had a clear understanding of the places on our list and helped us whenever we have any questions. We recommend this tour to anyone who’s looking for a fun experience - dangling your feet while on board the puffing billy + getting up close to see fairy/little penguins waddling home at Philip island. Thank you for such a great experience Michael!
