Unforgettable slice of Australia. We completed the ocean road tour on Thursday 5th Nov. The tour was brilliant and our guide James was first class. He was friendly, informative and really gave the impression that his customers having a memorable day really mattered to him. A great experience that I would recommend for anyone visiting Melbourne.

Penguins Travis was fantastic, very accommodating and informative

Penguin parade and wildlife Travis was excellent!! Really enjoyable trip.

James was a great guide. Super informative Our guide James did an amazing job on this tour! Not only did we get the beautiful ocean scenic tour, we seen in the wild koalas and kangaroos. Great Australian information shared also

Phillip Island Fabulous experience! Josh was an incredible guide.

Brill Brill journey and evening. So close up.

Penguins are so cute! Omg what an amazing experience. Was such a lovely day and a highlight of staying in Melbourne! James our tour guide was really welcoming and informative, telling us information about the animals of the sanctuary, the penguins and some island history. We stopped for dinner and saw some amazing views of the island! I was booked onto penguin plus and the view of the coming back was amazing, so good to be able to see them upclose!

James our tour guide made the experience though, happy to be co-pilot any day! Thank you!

Wonderful Day traveling to the Great Ocean Road’s Sites! My husband and I had an overall great experience. We were picked up from our hotel promptly at 7:55 by our driver/guide Fred. The day to several amazing sites was made enjoyable by his anecdotes of past tourists and his own travel experiences. We didn’t feel rushed at the stops throughout. We would recommend this company as we had only 7 of us in the group!

Outstanding tour - thanks to the guide Not only was the tour outstanding, but the guide we had for the afternoon tour was incredibly knowledgeable (and enthusiastic). I recommend this tour highly!

Travis is the best guide! Travis was an outstanding guide! He knew so much about the animals and even took us around the island to see the amazing views and even more animals!

Great trip. Penguins stole the show !! Very nice trip. The highlight was the penguins parade but enjoyed all the other animals as well. Travis was a great guide as well as educating us on the animals. We enjoyed it. Would recommend.

Great experience Great experience. Our guide James was very knowledgeable and informative and seeing the penguins was a once in a lifetime experience.

Great tour with Travis with the highlight being the penguin parade. His enthusiasm and knowledge were appreciated. Also, we lost one of our phones and the tour company returned to our hotel the next day.

This was a fantastic trip of the great ocean road with national parks experience included.
Our guide Burt was exceptional, full of knowledge about all aspects of the tour, and delivered this knowledge to us in a really pleasant fashion making it all so interesting and easy to listen to on this long journey.
The views were incredible, we were blown away by them.
The rain forest walk was just perfect , again with Burt explaining all to us.
We were so lucky to see koala and kangaroos in their natural habitat.
Overall a wonderful experience

Gary, our driver was great!
We went on the Great Ocean Road trip.
He certainly knew his stuff. A charasmatic personality, he provided us with lots of information about the places we saw and visited.
Inevitably on a long trip like ours, not everywhere is particularly interesting. Gary was a great raconteur and had a deep source of amusing and interesting stories to fill the gaps until something good came along through the window.
On the way back, when we were all tired, his good music playlist was rather cool too.

The cool, temperate rain forest was amazing.

The Great Ocean Road is something special. Fantastic vistas around every corner.

We saw kangaroos and koalas, great waves rolling in and magnificent pillars of rock rising from the sea floor.

A lovely day. Thank you.

Fun trip to see the penguins with a few beautiful stops along the way Josh was a great guide. Very knowledgable and friendly.

Definitely a tour everyone should go on Josh was fantastic. Kept the tour engaging and entertaining. Provided a ton of information while being personable and friendly. Would definitely recommend

Ocean view Road James was very well informed and talked to us appropriately. The views were spectacular. He was a great driver but he kept driving on the wrong side of the road. I really enjoyed the day.

Australian adventure We had a great experience feeding the Kangaroos our visit length was ideal. The atmosphere on the bus was good as well as Josh our driver and to our guide,our crowd size was super with only nine on board.

Sheffielders on tour Wow what a day. Josh was a fantastic guide, knowledgeable and well informed. Get a 'plus' ticket for the penguins, you won't be disappointed by how close you are to the little fellas.

Excellent! Excellent tour with great guides James and Travis who were very informative. Saw lots of wildlife and scenic sites. Bus good for having a pop out step which made boarding easy but it was a fairly bouncy ride.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Incredible Experience with an Outstanding Guide!

What an absolutely fantastic experience with Oceania Tours & Safaris! From beginning to end, the tour was well-organized, enjoyable, and filled with unforgettable sights.

A special shout-out to our driver and guide, Fred, who truly made the experience exceptional! Fred was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely entertaining throughout the journey. His ability to share interesting facts, local history, and stories while keeping everyone laughing and engaged made the day even more memorable.

What really stood out was Fred's personality and professionalism. You could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and that enthusiasm made all the difference. A great tour guide doesn't just take you from one destination to another; they enhance the entire experience, and Fred certainly delivered!

Australia has some breathtaking scenery, but having someone like Fred guide us through it made the experience that much more special.

I highly recommend Oceania Tours & Safaris, and if you're fortunate enough to have Fred as your guide, you're in for a treat!

Thank you, Fred, for a wonderful experience and some fantastic memories of Australia!

We did the Melbourne Moonlit Sanctuary and Brighton Beach Boxes tour. We had the absolute best time feeding the baby kangaroos and wallabees. The Sanctuary was the highlight of our trip. The animals really took to my adult son. After putting and feeding one of them, and walking a distance away, it came hopping, making a beeline to my soon. It was the cutest thing, like 'hey don't forget me.' Our tourguide Gary was quite knowledgeable. He shared a lot of info with us on the Sanctuary as well as the Brighton Boxes and the back story to them. We really enjoyed this tour. I would definitely recommend this to others.

We had an amazing day with Leo ... the perfect host ... showing us the Great Ocean Road, the 12 Apostles and so much more. For us this day out was part of a trip of a lifetime and Leo made it all the more pleasurable. Thank you so much for a terrific day ... absolutely fabulous

Sarah did a great job of leading our tour along the ocean road. Despite encountering a flat tire early she recovered well and shared useful information on Australia wildlife and plants. She also showed us Koalas and Kangaroos in the wild. Would recommend touring with her again.

Phillip Island afternoon small group Travis was a wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable and excellent at his job.

Thank you for a lovely day Travis

Best Half day tour in Melbourne! We had a wonderful time on our city tour! A special thanks to Fred for being such a fantastic tour guide.

Great half day trip The pick up and drop off were convenient. The beach boxes were nice to see. I enjoyed Walter’s ( our tour guide) commentary on the history of the beach boxes and their continued significance.
The moonlit sanctuary was great. I paid extra to pet a koala which was definitely worth it.
This is a great half day tour ( not a lot of walking ) but definitely a lot of animals to see.

Amazing Travis was fantastic and very knowledgeable. Such a great day.

Amazing! Travis was amazing! He gave us the best advice at the Penguin Parade, was very knowledgeable, and all around awesome.

Once in a lifetime experience! Travis was an excellent guide! We had a blast and learned so much! His passion for the animals and environment was evident throughout the tour and was contagious!

Such a fantastic day out exploring the Great Ocean Road, packed so much sightseeing and experiences in without it feeling crammed. Sarah is such an excellent guide - knowledgeable, personable and so energetic, it was a pleasure spending the day with her and sitting up front in the van with her so I could ask lots of questions!! She took photos for people, told us so many interesting stories, had the most amazing playlist with a combination of current hits, classics, and traditional aussie music. Her approach to tourguiding was impeccable and her passion and experience shone through. What a welcome into Australia and great first impression of the country and Melbourne. THANK YOU SARAH

Excellent Tour We had an excellent guide Travis who went out of his way to make the trip unique and enjoyable. His recommendation for food is spot on. Phillip Island is amazing. The Penguin Parade is wonderful. The pick up and drop off from the hotel is very convenient

Great sites and guide- van could be more comfortable. Stops were great, Rick, the guide was great! It is a long ride and the seats were not comfortable. Very narrow and there were some uncomfortable jolts when the van hit bumpy spots in road. Not the driver's fault just not enough cushioning
OF seats or suspension system.

Spectacular experience all afternoon and evening Outstanding small group tour to Phillip Island in a small group (2 of us plus 7 others) with excellent guide Josh. Stop at Moonlit Sanctuary was great - don’t skip the Koala experience! Other greats stops on Phillip island ahead of the Penguin Parade to see amazing land/sea apes and wildlife. The penguins came as they apparently do every night - spectacular experience.

Don’t miss the great ocean road tour with Adam Outstanding small group tour ( 2 of us and 6 others) with our excellent driver/guide Adam. So much to see - all the sea and landscapes. A walk through a rainforest. And we spotted 4 Koalas in the wild (and wallabies). The great ocean road views are breathtaking the entire way.

Phillip Island Tour Incredible tour guide, very informative and kind.

phillip island Travis was fantastic. He always gave us the best advice, and I’m very grateful to him for the experience he gave me and for the passion he puts into what he does.

Sarah, our driver and guide at the sanctuary, was fabulous!! I can’t say enough how knowledgeable she was about all of the animals at the sanctuary. Feeding the kangaroos and petting the Koala was so fun! This is a must see!

A great day trip from Melbourne along the Great Ocean Road. We spotted wild koalas, kangaroos and big seas. Sarah is an excellent guide and driver with lots of information given along the way.

Fabulous full day trip with Sarah on the great ocean road. Knowledgeable and friendly- I had a great day and learned a lot. Would recommend.

Best parade in the world It’s a great personal tour with this group I highly recommend them! They also advise details you would not know without their suggestions! Go get your parade

Penguin parade tour Overall great experience. Tons of information from Travis our guide. Got bonus stops during the tour.

Eye opening experience The penguin viewing was an Incredible experience!! And all comfortably accompanied and well advised!!

Postive Very well detailed tour Josh a good driver and a perfect guide

Great tour with Josh! Great tour with Josh! Got to see sites, pet koalas, feed kangaroos, received the best insider tips on the penguin parade and learned so much about Australia! Highly recommend!

Great time with Josh as our guide! There comes a time when an epic journey is required, and our man Josh took us across Australia to see the penguins at Phillip island.

Josh was incredible informative, knowledgeable, engaging and super fun!!

Word has it, he’s better than some guy named Travis. :)

Bert provided an excellent experience across the southern part of Australia. Really went above and beyond to explain the sights and answer all questions.

Sarah showed and explained us animals, their behaviors and spots we would have never expirienced by our own. Thanks a million for this great trip. We enjoyed Phillip island and the moonlit Sanctuary with Nelson, Hazel and Coconut very much. :)

Amazing experience with Oceania Tours We took the small-group Phillip Island afternoon trip with a stop at Moonlit Sanctuary. Our guide for the day (I think his name was Travis?) was fantastic. He loves what he does and he communicates his enthusiasm and knowledge. He gave us running commentary on what we were seeing on the way out of Melbourne.

At Moonlit Sanctuary, he took us through the different areas and animal exhibits (and made sure my 13 year old got into the koala encounter - and what an encounter it was! My son said it was the experience of a lifetime! He pet a koala who was posing and hamming it up for the camera!). The guide knew the animals personally (which kangaroo was which and how each typically behaved, etc) and the staff there. Amazing experience.

We then continued to Phillip Island, where he took us through the Nobbies, pointing out the penguin nests and finding some that were occupied, as well as stopping at beautiful lookouts over the stunning coast. He then gave us a briefing on what to expect at the penguin parade (where to stand and go for the best views - how much time to spend at the viewing platform - we took one of the platform upgrades - and when to head to watch them walk along the path).

One thing we liked a lot about our guide - he cared about the animals and their welfare, driving carefully and slowly along the island roads to preserve the safety of the animals and their habitats (we saw large buses coming through at high speeds, even though there were some animals on the road).

Really good fun and great value. Really memorable day. Travis was our guide: from the moment he picked us up he was informative and interesting. Really clearly outlined the itinerary.

Penguin island Quite an exquisite experience seeing the phenomenon of penguins leaving the sea.

Wonderful trip! Josh was a terrific guide. He shared his knowledge with us in a cheerful manner. Beaches were beautiful, sanctuary had native animals and the little penguins were cute as can be. Spring for the Penguin Plus ticket; it's worth it .

I absolutely loved this tour! Brighton Beach was beautiful, and Moonlit Sanctuary was definitely one of the highlights of my trip to Australia. I had such a wonderful time with the animals, took so many photos with the kangaroos, and even got to meet and feed a beautiful white kangaroo, which was such a special experience! 🦘❤️ Seeing the koalas up close was another unforgettable moment.
A special thank you to our guide, Sarah! English is not my first language, but she spoke very clearly and was really easy for me to understand, which I truly appreciated. She was incredibly friendly, kind and helpful throughout the whole tour. You can really tell how much she loves animals, and that made the experience even more enjoyable. She also took lots of amazing photos of me with the kangaroos, which I’m so happy to have as memories from this day.
Everything was well organised, relaxed and enjoyable from start to finish. I came back with so many wonderful photos and memories. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Melbourne! 🐨🦘🇦🇺
