Every night at sunset, the truly incredible spectacle of the Penguin Parade occurs on the beaches of Phillip Island. The local colony of little penguins emerges from the water to make their way to the burrows in the sand dunes - and this tour is your chance to witness this unforgettable phenomenon in real life!

We’ll spend the day exploring top attractions including Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park and the Nobbies, before settling in on the sand, ready for the main show at the Penguin Parade. Including all entrance fees, this great value tour is the best way to discover the wild coastal scenery and delightful animals of Phillip Island.

    A wonderful experience for the family. A bit tiring as it was very long. Loved the penguin parade, which was the highlight.

    What a cool experience getting to see the little penguins come in from the water, not always an easy feat for them.

    The driver did not give clear instructions on returning to the bus on time. We waited over 25 minutes at the first stop for two young women, he went into a restaurant and pulled two young women out after waiting for 15 minutes at the shortened lunch stop and waited again for the same young women a second time at another stop. Nothing was said to them. Was very disrespectful of the rest of the folks on the tour. We had to shorten lunch to 35 minutes, etc. The penguin March is exaggerated. We saw a few dozen penguins come out over about 20 minutes. We were the last bus to arrive and had to sit in the back rows of the viewing area. Just a very disappointing tour overall. If you want to see the penguin March, rent a car for the day and drive yourself!

    Loved this tour . Stopped by 2 beautiful beaches and a koala and kangaroo sanctuary . Able to feed the kangaroos . The main attraction was the penguins . We upgraded our seats and was able to see them come out if the oceans and go to their dens . It was magical . I do wish we had more time there to enjoy all the exhibits and information the center had available .
