We had a great time thanks to Fred our tour guide who was very knowledgeable and full of interesting stories about him & his earlier guests. Some of whom turned out be celebrities. Besides the Penguin Parade one gets to see the Philip Island MotoGp track & a bush animal rescue centre. Thanks for a great time Fred Garcarczyk!
