Reviews/Trip Moments

Reviews: Melbourne Puffing Billy Steam Train + Phillip Island Penguin Island Day Trip
Guest user2026-02-27
This itinerary was really great for us traveling with kids. The penguin watching was in the evening, so we left the hotel around noon, which suited our child's schedule. Our first stop was the Puffing Billy Railway, a popular station with great photo opportunities. It was sunny at first, but halfway through the journey, a sudden downpour started. So we skipped the zoo and went straight to Phillip Island. We saw kangaroos along the way, and Cape Nobis was beautiful. Our guide, Xiao Li, was also fantastic. We did see the baby penguins in the evening, but my older son got impatient in the end. We took many close-up photos though. Highly recommended!

Some lovely scenery, friendly and informative guide. Bus was outdated and a bit uncomfy for the amounted travelling we had to do.

After arranging everything for my child's studies in Europe, I booked this day trip on Ctrip. It was an English-language tour, with half the participants being Chinese and the other half foreign tourists. The driver and guide was a very nice Australian girl who always had a smile on her face. She drove fast and smoothly, making for a pleasant experience, and the scenery was quite beautiful.

Long journey, but the bus is comfortable with a lot of toilet break en-route. Prepare your own motion sickness pills if needed.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Tour with the Best Guide! Chris H picked us up from the Great Southern Hotel and gave us an unforgettable experience from the colorful Brighton Beach, the wildlife at Moonlit Sanctuary, stunning views at The Nobbies, and the magical Penguin Parade. Chris is truly the best, kind, professional, and very caring. Thank you for the amazing memories! Until we meet again — love from the Philippines 🇵🇭❤️

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.
