Overview

Phillip Island hosts more than just its world-famous Penguin Parade, it is home to an impressive array of wildlife (koalas, wallabies & various birdlife), rugged coastline, stunning vistas and sandy beaches.
Your time on Phillip Island will see you visit one of its beaches, walk amongst the treetops of the Koala Conversation Centre with a bird’s eye view of Australia’s most loved marsupial, wander the clifftop boardwalk taking in the wild, rugged coastline, before travelling to the Penguin Parade spotting various wildlife.
Taking your seats at the parade, you will thrilled to see so many penguins waddle up the beach to their burrows right alongside the boardwalk and viewing points, merely a hands length away from you.

    We had an amazing experience with Rob from Your Exclusive Tours. The itinerary was awesome - first being picked up at our condo in the Melbourne CBD, then drove to the wildlife animal sanctuary where we saw many indigenous animals, got to interact with a koala and fed the kangaroos. From there we drove to a seaside co-op restaurant owned by local fishermen for the freshest fish and chips. We then headed to several scenic locations on Phillip Island culminating with the Nobbies which is a picturesque part of the coastline. Then on to the main attraction - seeing the fairy penguins parade! As part of the tour, we had a viewing vantage from the premium seating area and arrived in plenty of time to get great seats to see the parade. This exceeded expectations as a very unique and enjoyable wildlife viewing experience - there is nothing like it! Being able to see the penguins come out of the water grouped hundreds at a time and then waddle onto the beach and eventually make it back to their burrows is simply a sight to see. We returned to Melbourne and were dropped off at our condo after a thoroughly enjoyable day. We were impressed by everything about the tour - the vehicle is a very comfortable Mercedes Sprinter Van, Rob is a very professional/knowledgable guide, little extras like donuts from the market, bottled water, coffee at the penguin parade - all of these things prove that you get what you pay for when you book through Your Exclusive Tours! We actually toured the Yarra Valley the day before and will review that tour separately. Jenny was our tour guide that day and to our delight she also came along on the Phillip Island tour. Both Jenny and Rob set the bar very high for our 3 week vacation to Australia and New Zealand. They were our first two guides and although we had other very good guides throughout our travels - they were definitely the best!

    Rob's awesome and we had the best time visiting Phillip Island. From the fish and chips, to the sites, the tim tam slams, wild wallaby's, and the penguins we got to see so much. Rob knows his stuff and my son and I really had a great time. This tour kicked off our Melbourne trip and I highly recommend doing it.

    What a great day! Our family of four was picked up outside our apartment by Peter in a comfortable Mercedes MPV. Peter was a laid back, but informative and entertaining guide, who drove us first to the Moonlit Sanctuary to learn more about Australian wildlife. We then had a late lunch and continued our journey to Philip Island where we visited some famous viewpoints and finally onto the penguin parade where we had a ranger led tour of the attraction. We did not feel rushed at any stage of the day and although we paid a premium price for our private day out we felt that we got much more out of the day than would have been experienced from a larger party on one of the coach tours.
