Bus Tour-Phillip Island and Brighton Beach Boxes

We had an excellent experience with Adam who was our guide for the tour. He was friendly, very respectful and extremely patient especially with tourists who were late despite Adam's clear instructions on the timings. He has an extensive knowledge of all the finer aspects of the tour which he readily shared with us. Adam has a very good sense of humor and is an excellent conversationalist. A tour with Adam is very highly recommended.

My favorite place in Melbourne

The island is stunning, worth the time and cost, I enjoyed most the penguin parade and Nobbies seal rock (especially the many wallabies we’ve seen on the sides of the road. I’d love to go back again definitely but next time I will omit the Brighton beach boxes and spend more time at the Nobbies seal rock area ;)

Magical

The Phillip Island Penguin Parade Bus Tour combined with a visit to the Moonlit Wildlife Sanctuary is an unforgettable experience, offering a perfect mix of wildlife encounters and stunning scenery. The day begins at the Moonlit Wildlife Sanctuary, where you can hand feed kangaroos and wallabies, observe koalas and wombats up close, and learn about conservation efforts from knowledgeable staff. The scenic drive to Phillip Island features breathtaking coastal views, complemented by the guide’s engaging commentary about the region’s history and ecology. The highlight of the tour is the Penguin Parade, where you watch hundreds of little penguins waddle ashore at dusk- a truly magical and heartwarming sight. The viewing areas are well-designed to offer excellent visibility while protecting the penguins and their habitat, and the guides provide fascinating insights into their behaviors and the conservation work being done. The tour is well-paced, with comfortable transport and friendly staff ensuring a smooth experience. For the best experience, bring a jacket for the chilly evening and consider upgrading to premium viewing options for a closer look. This tour is a must for nature lovers and a perfect way to experience the beauty and wildlife of Australia, leaving you with unforgettable memories.
