Description
Our Phillip Island Private tour begins from your location (hotel, apartment etc.) and you will enjoy a scenic drive through Melbourne’s countryside, as we head down to Phillip Island, famous for its penguins, fur seals, surfing locations and for the Moto GP Championship.
Once we cross the bridge to Phillip Island, we will make a visit to the Koala Conservation Reserve, where you can stroll through eucalyptus trees and tree top boardwalks that provide exceptional wildlife photo opportunities. Unlike a zoo, the Koala Reserve is really unique as visitors get the chance to see different species of Australian wildlife in their natural habitat.
Next, we will drive west to the beautiful coastline and the breathtaking scenery of Nobbies Centre. This area offers outstanding coastal viewing from the boardwalks and lookout points set amongst natural sea bird gardens. One and a half kilometres offshore from Nobbies Centre are Seal Rocks, Australia’s largest colony of fur seals, with an estimated 16,000 inhabiting the area!
During the summer months, we will drive to the town of Cowes for dinner before we head to the Penguin Parade. In the winter months, you will enjoy your dinner after the Penguin Parade. Our professional driver can help you find a restaurant of your preferences.
Our final destination is one of Australia’s most popular attractions, the world-renowned Penguin Parade. As night falls in Phillip Island, the world’s smallest penguins return ashore after a day’s fishing. This one-of-a-kind experience is the highlight of the tour and you can enjoy the show from viewing stands and elevated boardwalks.
Finally when our Phillip Island tour is over, we will return back to Melbourne.
