We had an amazing experience in Melbourne on a tour that I couldn't miss! The penguin parade was incredibly adorable, and I was impressed by how respectful the park was towards the penguins and their environment. Apart from that, we also had the opportunity to visit Brighton Beach and the Moonlit Sanctuary, where I could get up close to koalas, kangaroos, wallabies, and other animals. However, please note that during the busy season, you may need to make an online reservation in advance to take photos with the koalas. But what made the whole experience truly special was our guide, Bree. Her energy, knowledge, and witty guidance were amazing and added so much to the whole story for me. By the way, don't forget to check out her Spotify song list.
