OVERVIEW OF THE TOUR

Our 1 Day Phillip Island Tour takes us on a journey through a variety of Victoria’s coastal surroundings, accompanied by interaction with some of Australia’s native wildlife for everyone to enjoy.

We depart Melbourne in the morning, heading straight to the Maru Wildlife Park, where we will have the opportunity to meet some friendly Australian animals. Take a stroll through this popular wildlife park to have an intimate experience a cute koala. In fact you will get to meet and interact with all the unique furry Australian animals including Wallabies, Kangaroos, Emus, Dingos and the fearsome Tasmanian Devil.

From Maru, we continue our Phillip Island Day Tour to the Nobbies Information Centre. The Nobbies provides coastal boardwalks which lead you to stunning views of the powerful ocean force which crashes amongst the rocks, forming what is known as a blowhole. Be sure to keep an eye out for more Aussie animals here, including the fur seals of Seal Rocks in the distance.

We leave the main attraction of our Phillip Island Day Tour until last! Be amazed as you discover the wonders of the Phillip Island Penguin Parade. The Penguin Parade is one of Victoria’s most popular tourist destinations to visit, with thousands witnessing the parade yearly. As the sun sets over the sea, hundreds of little penguins emerge from the ocean and waddle across the sand to find refuge in the safety of their burrows.

The Phillip Island Penguin Parade is an event that every tourist visiting Victoria must experience. Join us today on our 1 Day Phillip Island Penguin Parade and Wildlife Adventure to see what all the fuss is about!
