Itinéraire
Visitez les cabanes de plage les plus emblématiques et colorées de Melbourne, parfaites pour des photos mémorables au bord de la mer. Remarque : Si l'horaire du train Puffing Billy nécessite un départ plus tôt, cet arrêt peut être sauté ou remplacé par une alternative telle qu'un belvédère panoramique dans les chaînes Dandenong ou une charmante ville locale, vous assurant ainsi de vivre une expérience unique.
Rencontrez de près la célèbre faune australienne, des kangourous et wallabies aux koalas endormis. Renseignez-vous sur les efforts de conservation locaux et profitez de la possibilité de nourrir certains animaux à la main. Note : Ce spot peut être remplacé par Moonlit Sanctuary en fonction de la situation réelle du jour.
Embarquez à bord du chemin de fer à vapeur patrimonial le plus apprécié d'Australie, en activité depuis plus de 120 ans. Détendez-vous pendant que le train serpente à travers les forêts tropicales luxuriantes, les eucalyptus imposants et les collines vallonnées des chaînes de Dandenong. Remarque : Le tronçon exact du train peut varier en fonction de l’horaire opérationnel de la journée, mais l’expérience authentique du train à vapeur est toujours garantie.
Admirez une vue imprenable sur l'océan à la pointe ouest de Phillip Island, où les falaises accidentées rencontrent les vagues fracassantes du détroit de Bass.
Terminez la journée par la célèbre parade des pingouins, où des centaines de petits pingouins reviennent à terre au coucher du soleil après une journée de pêche en mer. Observez ce phénomène magique de la faune à partir de plateformes d'observation spécialement conçues pour une expérience inoubliable, unique dans une vie.

Avis(5)
Love the travel plan and the driver was extremely helpful. Brighton beach followed by wildlife. Puffing Billy and Philip island. It’s quite amazing to be able to get done with everything in a day.
Do not take this tour, the van condition is terrible. The driver drove really bad! (I have to cancel the tour at first stop due to car sickness). The seat in the car is not comfortable at all. Very small. Not even give me a partial refund when I requested due to medical condition.
A must for any age if you are in Melbourne. This experience is your second childhood, freedom and fun.
Got to see the highlights - Puffing Billy, Melbourne Bathhouses, Maru Zoo, and of course penguins!!!!! Vance was a very nice driver and made sure we stayed on time and adjusted where needed. He even highlighted where we could plan to eat during the day which helped on a long tour like this. Great Day out and the penguins are the opportunity of a lifetime to see.
I'll start with the pros- puffing billy was a great experience, highly recommend. The penguin parade was incredible to see experience. Now I'll get to the reason I am giving a 1 star- I don't like to complain, because I understand the need for flexibility. The tour felt like a lot of wasted time, time that was not cheap. I opted for this tour, as there were many options for similar tours, including cheaper ones. Scheduled tour time 10am, and changed to 830, due to the train schedule, which was ok. After the train, we had an excessive amount of time at the train cafeteria. The Maru Animal Park, which felt like a sad zoo. For the cost of the tour, the $30 should have been included. We were given 2 hours to spend there, which doesn't need more than 45 minutes (as per itinerary, 1 hour). Then we were brought to an overpriced chocolate store because we had a lot of time before seeing the penguins. After we were brought to Cowes in Philip Island, and here we were given almost 3 hours. 3 hours to do what? No where on the itinerary had this listed. At 1830 we made our way to the penguin parade. The penguin parade ended late, which of course is not in control of the tour. We started our day at 830 and ended at 2300. Our driver, he was nothing close to a guide. I asked the driver why we didn't stop at two of the locations, he said oh because the train. we weren't given the option, nor were we even told we wouldn't be doing the other activities. , we spent almost 3 hours in Cowes, wasting time. I understand the need for flexibility, but it's different when the itinerary is blatantly disregarded and there is zero communication about it. When choosing tours, it's based on the itinerary. What's the point if the itinerary is different? Different without even given any options or information. If I knew this prior to booking, I would have went with a different tour option. This tour was poorly planned and orchestrated. For $122 USD a person (2 people), I would expect a lot better. Completey upset with our experience.
