Reviews: [May Limited-Time Special Offer] Melbourne Puffing Billy Steam Train + Phillip Island & Penguin Island Day Trip
Guest User2026-05-07
A very fun trip, super satisfying! The tour planner helped us plan the time very well! The small group of 12 people in a Mercedes wasn't as crowded as a large bus. First, we rode the Puffing Billy Steam Train. We didn't need to book tickets in advance (tickets are very hard to get). This route goes to Belgrave. Remember to find your carriage and grab a seat on the left first – the view is better! Next, we went to the zoo and got to see kangaroos and koalas. Touching a koala costs an extra 30 AUD, but it was definitely worth it, and we took some beautiful photos. Finally, we watched the penguin parade. So cute! Waiting quietly on the shore for the penguins to come ashore, watching the flocks return, was a truly therapeutic moment. Overall, a super satisfying day! The tour leader was also a very nice and beautiful lady!

Before the trip, we compared various platforms and found Ctrip to be the most cost-effective because it's a local travel company. We later saw a branch of Ctrip in the city. The entire itinerary was well-organized and reasonable. Our driver, Mr. Lin, provided very detailed explanations, sharing a lot of information that independent travelers wouldn't encounter. Each stop had a designated time frame, ensuring the overall activity schedule was well-planned. Under Mr. Lin's leadership, the entire group was well-organized and harmonious, even when the tour was fully booked. The scenery along the Great Ocean Road is truly beautiful and worth a visit.

There were around 20 people on the tour, including Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Westerners, and other Asians. There were many rest stops along the way, and if you got hungry, there were places to buy snacks or KFC, so we had plenty of fun on the bus. ☺︎ Of course, the tourist spots were also very beautiful, so I didn't feel pressed for time.
Reviews: [Optional Popular Wooden Bridge] Melbourne Puffing Billy Steam Train + Phillip Island Penguin Island Day Trip

It was a fantastic trip! We set off at 8 AM to catch the earliest little train. The cool, refreshing morning air and the steam from the train were so pleasant. The staff were incredibly helpful, waving goodbye as the train pulled away. We saw many residents and tourists along the way, and everyone greeted us warmly – it was so much fun! Then we went to the zoo and a chocolate factory. The driver kept giving us tips on how to have fun and eat the most cost-effective things. We then visited a beautiful island, and finally, we went to Penguin Island. There weren't many penguins that day, but we still saw a few up close. We didn't get back to the city until after 11 AM. The trip was quite long, and the driver was the most tired, as he had to drop us off and then drive home himself. I highly recommend this tour! Small car transportation, fewer people, and comfortable.
Reviews: Mt Buller Snow Mountain Ice Fun one-day tour from Melbourne

Excellent experience at Mount Buller, especially it is our first time playing ski in snow but full of adventure. Mix of excitement and nervousness wearing ski boots, helmet and gloves . Combining with wonderful view of the nature snow of Mount Buller 👍😁
