The Puffing Billy and Penguin Parade Day Tour was an unforgettable experience that perfectly combined history, stunning landscapes, and incredible wildlife. we visited the Penguin Parade at Phillip Island, and it was magical! Watching the adorable little penguins waddle ashore at sunset was heartwarming and an experience like no other. The setup at the Penguin Parade is well-organized, with plenty of viewing spots that don’t disturb the penguins’ natural habitat.
Disappointing experience

Disappointed. Timings listed are not accurate and should be updated for summer / winter activity. Tour actually left at 12.30 and returned at midnight ( due to when the sunsets). This left us with lots of ‘extra time’ for just hanging around. Our tour guide also spoke in broken English which was difficult to understand, especially for people who don’t speak English as their first language. There were 23 of us on the tour. The train ride lasts for 25 minutes departing from Belgrave (sit on the side facing the station - it has better views). The penguins were a lot more artificial than I was expecting with big boardwalks and decks and hundreds of people which made it feel very invasive.
Worth it

The trip was really good. The guide was perfect. Good amount of historical information but not too much. The tour was 11-12 hours so be prepared but well worth it. Lots of driving though.
