Booked with GoWest and was taken on our trip by Simon! Simon was excellent and really made our day enjoyable and gave us loads of interesting bits of knowledge about Melbourne, its history and the surrounding areas. Highly recommend going on Puffing Billy and if you can, go with Simon!
Really enjoy the one day tour, it is an unforgettable experience. The view is awesome, I really enjoy the wine and cannoli in Yarra Valley. Special thanks to our lovely guide Lucy, Lucy take good care of us and take the photos for us! Highly recommend to join this tour, you would not want to go home!
Thanks so much for the lovely review! 😊 We’re so glad you had such an unforgettable day with Lucy. It sounds like she took great care of you throughout the day and was always ready to help capture some special memories with her photos too! 📸💛 And Puffing Billy, beautiful scenery, wine and cannoli in the Yarra Valley is a pretty good combination for a day out! 🚂🍷🍰 We’re happy you enjoyed the different experiences along the way and that there was plenty to keep you entertained from start to finish. We especially love hearing that you enjoyed the day so much you didn’t want to go home! 😄 Thanks again for joining us and for the lovely words about Lucy. We’ll be very happy to pass them on to her! Hopefully this won’t be your last Go West adventure. There’s still plenty more of Victoria to explore, from the Great Ocean Road and Phillip Island to the Grampians and beyond. We’d love to have you along again! 💛
It runs rain or shine and it rained. We still had a wonderful time on the train. The tour guide will take a video of you when the train comes to the bridge where she was standing. It was fun.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Really enjoyed this day trip! Everything went smoothly and the whole itinerary was well organized. Our driver/guide was very responsible and friendly, and he gave us a lot of interesting information about the local culture, history, and architecture along the way. What I especially liked was that the tour wasn’t just about rushing from one attraction to another. We had several stops to enjoy the scenery and see some local wildlife, including geese, kangaroos, and other animals. We also had enough free time at each stop to explore and take photos, which made the day feel much more relaxed. Riding the Puffing Billy steam train through the forest was definitely one of my favorite parts of the trip. But the Penguin Parade was probably the most memorable. Watching the little penguins come out of the ocean and gradually gather together before making their way back to their burrows was such a special experience. Overall, it was a really enjoyable and memorable day. Great scenery, wildlife, and a very well-organized tour. Definitely recommend it!
Thanks so much for the fantastic review! 😊 We’re really happy to hear you had such a relaxed and enjoyable day with us. It’s lovely to know the itinerary felt well paced and gave you enough time to actually enjoy the places along the way rather than feeling like you were simply ticking attractions off a list. And it sounds like the wildlife made plenty of appearances too! 🦘🪿 There’s always something a little special about those unexpected sightings along the way. We’re glad Puffing Billy was one of your favourite parts of the day as well. There’s something pretty magical about travelling through the forest on that old steam train, but we have to agree that the penguins make a very memorable finale! 🐧 Watching them emerge from the water and make their way home is such a unique experience. Thanks again for spending such a big day with us and for sharing such a thoughtful review. We’re so glad you went home with plenty of great memories! 💛
Ben was a great guide, knowledgeable, friendly and punctual. The Puffing Billy experience was beautiful and definitely something I’d recommend! 🚂 The only downside was the bus. It was quite small and cramped, and unfortunately not very comfortable for taller people. Other than that, it was a fantastic experience!
Lots of driving as the starting point is remote but the trip was fun and well worth it. Our guide, Aleks was top notch
Aleks was a fantastic guide, very informative, patient and funny. A great experience and well worth the money.
Would definitely do this again: kangaroos…penguins…very memorable. And the tour guide (Mark) was extremely warm, accommodating and his knowledge of history and nature was very entertaining and educational.
Aleks was an absolute legend of a guide, driver and DJ. She is an asset to Go West tours and to Melbourne and Australia. Gave clear instructions and could not be anymore helpful.
Thank you Aleks we really enjoy the tour with you Rams House All The Way From LA
