The tour is the highlight of our short trip to Melbourne. The overall duration is perfect for my 2 years old, also not too early start or late end time. Tour guide is amazing, he's been very helpful throughout the journey. The wildlife park is fun esp for family with kids and obviously the puffing billy! We actually enjoyed the small tour group compared to bigger group and bus.
Our tour was very good from start to finish. Our guide was great, very helpful and informative, looked after us. Healesville sanctuary was great, the bird show was very informative. The puffing billy was great, a step back in time. Well worth it.
Overall satisfactory but like the chocolate factory trip
It was a lovely experience we really enjoyed our time our guide was very kind and insightful. Very respectful and did his best to keep us all safe and ensured we enjoyed our time. Overall really satisfied with the tour!
Fantastic day out. Highly recommended. Out driver and tour guide Russel was brilliant.
Thank you Simon for a great experience!
Our driver Russell did a fantastic job he was very nice and patient he loves what he does so we enjoy our trip today love it very recommended 🙃
Every stop exceeded my expectations, but I think the sanctuary was my favourite. Even though it had been lightly raining for the whole day, we were still able to do everything and there were less crowds! Our guide Marty was amazing, he went above and beyond by drying our seats for Puffing Billy before we sat down with a towel and travelling ahead to get videos of us on board the train! Overall, an excellent day out, would highly recommend!
Guide was fantastic! Was super friendly and helpful. The puffing billy train was great and loved the landscapes!
Excellent guide, David, very informative. The Billy ride was amazing!
