Amazing Australian Adventure! - Our guide was absolutely lovely and knowledgeable. It was an amazing full day trip. I highly recommend this beautiful tour.

Highlight of our Melbourne visit! - This tour was a true highlight of our time in Melbourne!!! We got to pet a koala and feed kangaroos & wallaby! The nature center was awesome. Watching surfers was unexpected and cool. That we had priemere seating for the penguines was another surprise. Watching the waves of adorable, little peguines arrive en masse ... indescribably amazing!!! Icing on the cake - our driver/guide, Darren was fantastic!!! His care of us, his commentary en route ... top notch and greatly appreciated!!! He is a definite company asset!!!!

BEST DAY!! - Would 100% recommend this trip! Our guide Matt was so fun and energetic all day, and full of knowledge. His passion and enthusiasm for the wildlife really showed.

Fantastic tour with Gina - Such a fantastic day! Gina was an exceptional guide that had in-depth knowledge of the local area, but knew extensive details regarding Australia’s history, including its native ancestors, and about the extraordinary local wildlife including the wallabies, penguins, and so much more. The tour itself was spectacular but Gina’s amazingly warm attitude and expertise really helped make this trip memorable. Thank you again for an excellent tour!

A perfect day spent in nature - The anima sanctuary was so fun! We got to pet kangaroos and wallabies and see all kinds of animals. The stops were all really fun and we got some amazing views. I won’t lie, those sweet little penguins popping out of the ocean made me tear up. It was beautiful. As a tour it was seamlessly done and absolutely worth every penny. I would have spent more money for this tour.

The ideal family day trip down to Phillip Island - Ryan was an excellent guide, friendly, knowledgeable and entertaining making for a fun day out. The trip down was broken up into many stops making it more manageable and exciting. Moonlit sanctuary was a really lovely experience with many animals, all well looked after and very easily done in 2 hours including lunch at the cafe. The stops down to the penguins were beautiful, including a stop at Cowes with shops or just a walk along the beach and then walking along the boardwalk at the Nobbies we saw some penguins having a little snooze in their hatching boxes. When seeing the penguins, anywhere on the boardwalk you will see the penguins once they have come up off the beach, but try and get to the stands early to see the penguins coming out of the water and making a run for it up the beach! The purple bus made it easy to find and the trip home was smooth. We did the trip with 6 adults and 3 children (7, 11 and 14 years) and it was just perfect, plenty of toilet stops along the way, time to eat and just relax!

Ticks all the boxes and more- and great value to boot! - Fantastic tour! So many highlights, of course the tiny penguins stole the show but the whole day was perfect- the wildlife park was interactive and informative, all the scenery was spectacular and a stop at the charming village of Cowes. Our guide Ryan was friendly, relaxed, informative and we felt we were in safe and capable hands. I would highly recommend Explore.

Perfect Melbourne Trip - This amazing trip was perfected by our super host RYAN!! He deserves recognition for his humour, knowledge and safe driving skills! You will not be hungry as there are plenty of opportunities to have food and snacks. Thank you Explore Australia.

Excellent tour, excellent guide, excellent value - This was an excellent tour with an excellent guide Ryan who was friendly, funny, knowledgeable about local and wildlife facts and above all, happy to go the extra mile to accommodate everyone, even difficult customers! Thank you, you have us hooked.

Amazing tour and adorable penguins!! - I went on this tour with family to see wallabies, roos, koalas and penguins. What we got was that plus multiple opportunities to explore little towns and beautiful beach areas. We were very comfortable in the tour bus and Ryan was an amazing tour guide. Would very much recommend this day trip to anyone visiting Melbourne!!
