The Phillip Island Explorer Hop-On Hop-Off Bus is the easiest and most flexible way to experience the best of Phillip Island. This small-group sightseeing service allows you to explore the island at your own pace, without needing a car or following a rigid group itinerary.

Running daily on a reliable loop, the Island Explorer connects you to all the major highlights. With your all-day pass, you can hop on and off as many times as you like, staying longer at the places you love and skipping what you don’t.

What makes this service unique is its semi-hybrid route: we only go where passengers want to go. This means fewer unnecessary stops and more time enjoying the things you care about. Booking is simple — just choose your preferred pickup hub and time when purchasing your ticket online.

Friendly local guides are on hand to offer travel tips, local stories, and personalised help throughout the day. Whether you’re here for the wildlife, food and wine, stunning coastlines, or cultural attractions, the Island Explorer offers a relaxed, sustainable, and fun way to explore Phillip Island like a local.
