Reviews: [Special Price from October 10th to 13th] Melbourne Puffing Billy Steam Train + Phillip Island Day Trip
Guest User2026-01-07
The little train wasn't too crowded. Having done my research beforehand, I sat on the side with the best view of the iconic arch of the bridge, which was great. The staff were all very friendly.
The scenery at Cape Nobis was truly stunning. Even though it was cloudy, the view created a wonderful atmosphere.
Our driver, Mr. Wu, was very responsible 😊 and the other members of our group were also great; everyone was punctual.
It got quite chilly on Phillip Island at night; even in my light down jacket, I was still shivering.
🌟Special praise to the online customer service! They responded quickly and resolved issues promptly, which was very reassuring.★

Reviews: Melbourne Puffing Billy Steam Train & Phillip Island Penguin Parade one-day tour
Guest User2025-12-28
If you have some free time in Melbourne, I recommend this itinerary 🌿
Start your healing journey by taking a train and viewing the vast fields 🌳 What I remember most about Maru Zoo is how the koalas sleep all day, and how the kangaroos lie down next to people... 🐨🦘
Finally, end your healing journey with a visit to Phillip Island, where you'll see penguins and their adorableness 🐧★

Reviews: Melbourne Puffing Billy Steam Train + Penguin Island Day Tour [Visit two popular attractions in one day]
Guest User2025-08-18
Since it was a small group, the driver picked us up at the hotel on time. The small crowds made the experience very good. The steam train burned coal, and the smoke was a bit dirty. I was covered in fine coal dust when I returned, so I tried not to open my mouth when facing the wind. The penguins were cute, and you could see them up close on the boardwalk. The starry sky was also beautiful. I had already seen the zoo in Brisbane, so I didn't go. I felt that an hour was a bit tight for the zoo. I would like to praise the driver and tour guide, Banban, for his steady driving and also for teaching us some sightseeing tips.★

Reviews: [Sign up tomorrow for free Great Ocean Road] Melbourne Brighton Beach + Phillip Island Penguin Parade day tour
Guest User2025-07-18
This trip is worth to go. Tour guide was very good and arrange very good. Have enough time for each scenic spot. Phillip Island is amazing , and the little penguin are so cute when seeing them come back from the sea. It was quite cold and windy at night, be aware to get enough clothes and extra jacket when waiting to see the penguins at night!★
