Charles_S, Sept 2026

Fun day, great guide (Shout out to David N)

Experience is as described, get to ride puffing billy and in its unique style. We had the fortune of being guided by David N - who to say love's his job is an understatement! He was highly enthusiastic (but let us rest on the drive!). He also drove up and down the route of the train journey to capture footage of us on the train from an outside perspective - was a lot of other visitors jealous of this!

It is a long day with a lot of driving, but well worth the journey. Even with light rain at times, the views were amazing.

Eileen_N, Sept 2026

Be patient! You’ll see plenty of tiny penguins walking the Penguin Highway .

It was a full day of activities. Just remember to dress appropriately for the high winds and cold breezes when visiting the Nobbies and waiting for the Penguin Parade. At Moonlight Sanctuary you’ll get the best opportunity to see the koalas, kangaroos, dingos, and Tasmanian devils up close. There was even a rare albino kangaroo. The views are spectacular in the Nobbies area.

Dawn_K, Sept 2026

Don’t hesitate. Do this tour!

Nathan provided us with a fun tour! The first winery was absolutely gorgeous. The wines weren’t our favorite, but we enjoyed it. The second winery was busy with minimal explanation of the wines. Would have liked more discussion. The third winery, Soumah, was our favorite! They had some interesting wines with thorough conversations about the wine being offered. Nathan , our driver and guide, was very friendly and knowledgeable. He really helped us enjoy the bus ride back to Melbourne with fun music we all enjoyed!

Go and do it!!

What an experience! Communication ahead of the day was great and clear. The crew were brilliant - fun but took your safety very seriously. Getting involved in setting up and taking down the balloon was very cool. The air balloon ride itself was magic - amazing to see the sunrise and also the city from above! Felt very comfortable and would highly recommend
