Fantastic life changing experience, watching these little penguins waddle out the sea and into their nests at dusk. Left feeling happy and having experience nature at its best. Also enjoyed the visit to Moonlight sanctuary and feeding Kangaroos and Wallabies. Our guide and driver Dirk was knowledgeable, fun and made the trip more special. He spotted loads of wildlife and stopped the van for photos. Excellent trip!

Long day but worth it.
This tour is a long day but the Brighton Beach Boxes were cool to see, the wildlife park was small but good for overseas visitors, coming from interstate we really didn't get much from this stop however we got an early lunch here which was ok. Nobbies Head was really nice, I would have liked more time here as you only just had enough time to walk the boardwalk, there was no time to go into the centre which was a shame. The Phillip Island penguins were adorable, although pay attention to where the tour guide says to come back to. We got there so late that there was almost no seats left in the stand and we were way up the back so couldnt see much. We left as soon as they were spotted and went back to the boardwalk where our guide said they come past. There were heaps that went past us and while we were just sitting there and no one else was around, we had a couple of babies pop their heads out of their burrows right in front of us. This spot made it worthwhile.

The march of the penguins are amazing but not what I expected.
The journey was long but the driver, Harley made it bearable. Very knowledgeable, considerate and connected. Kudos to him.
