The historic steam train departs from Lakeside and weaves through the vast Dandenong Ranges. With a unique experience and lots to see, there is no going wrong with a Puffing Billy train ride.



However it’s a very packed agenda and long ride, the lunch place wasn’t really good, so you may prepare some snacks and go to toilet as much you needed. Also the tour was not very guided, so you could do some homework before you go.



Gina also very kindly lent me her powerbank when I needed to charge my phone! I was surprised to learn she was new to tour guiding because she’s done a fantastic job, again thank you so much for everything Gina!!


Second, I feel like the timing of everything was not allocated well. We had two hours at Moonlit Sanctuary, which was way too much time. We finished walking around in about 45 minutes, even with two school groups there. There was not enough time at the Noobies or Cowes. I would've specifically liked to have more time in Cowes to have time to check out more shops and cafes.
I reckon the day was just overall poorly planned. Which lunch not included, the price isn't worth it. I wouldn't do it again.




He made the trip so much better and fun, he got us into the train even though they cancelled our ticket the same day. He also knew everything about all the places and gave us directions on how to enjoy it to the max. Nice type of music too, all the best my brother Safaripete.


Our guide Margaret was simply outstanding - her passion for the region, deep knowledge, and caring nature made this tour an absolute delight. Margaret expertly guided us through wineries, where the wine was consistently excellent. She also took us to hidden gem foodie hotspots, including Jack Rabbit where the cuisine was exceptional. Throughout the day, the stunning natural beauty of the Mornington Peninsula was on full display. Margaret's thoughtful recommendations and personal touches made the experience truly special. If you want an exceptional wine and food tour, be sure to request Margaret as your guide!
P.S. love every songs Margaret playing in car!
Very hospitable and welcoming. A local from Victoria so she helped us squeeze in some lesser known knowledge about eucalyptus trees with a national park stroll.
I had a 4 year old and explore Australia was totally responsive through out.
The only thing that can be improved on this tour is to squeeze in 15 mins for lakeside walk and picture during puffing Billy trip.
Great playlist of songs too ;)

Jai made every minute of the tour worth it.
Thanks heaps explorer Australia and JAI Jai




What made our trip exceptional and stand apart from other tours was Margaret with her infectious passion for the country, her knowledge and absolute willingness to make our day exceptional Thank You Margaret you are a breath of fresh air as your incredible commentary




Margaret was our guide for the day and her warmth, passion and love for nature truly impressed us. She was also knowledgeable and gave us a lot of useful tips and information - guiding us through the forest walk and what to look out for the zoo. She even managed to catch our Puffing train at the intersection and shot amazing photos for us!
Overall, a brilliant day, beautiful countryside and warm human touch. Truly Aussie experience.


This was not the customer service we expected from tripadvisor and we still hope someone from the team call us and help us with this matter and solve the problem








The tour program leaves a lot to be desired. The "Moonlit sanctuary" is a glorified petting zoo with a few cages of unhappy-looking eagles, owls and dingoes, a few wallabies and kangaroos sauntering among dead branches surrounding a muddy lake. Access to most facilities was forbidden without a special pass. The stop is useless to anyone who has ever visited an Australian zoo or a real sanctuary a la Currumbin yet takes 1-2 hours. This means that you run out of time for gems like the Woolamai Beach (15 min stay, ridiculous).
The penguins were great.
And what a better way to end the day than to watch the adorable small penguins coming from the water. Amazing day!



Balanced scheduled throughout the day and didn’t feel rushed at any point. Big thank you to Brooke who made us feel very welcomed and in good hands.
Keep up the good work team, we will be recommending you to our friends and family when they come to visit. 5 stars!

Very grateful for the experience and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this to our friends or grandkids.

Our tour guide Matthew was nice and funny. We enjoyed the tour very much.



We stopped first by the beach boxes and took some photos, before moving in to the top secret overlook that our guide Margaret took us too. We passed another overlook that as absolutely slammed with buses a bit further up the mountain.
Margaret our guide was the absolute best! She was super informative and answered all of our questions on the drive, and Margaret took a genuine interest in our visit to Australia making recommendations to us for things we should see and do.



Would highly recommend this company. Brooke was great for the chat as well in the spare time on the bus. One the best tours we have done in Australia will definitely be recommending.







Asked about their tour offered just got a respond- “Can’t Help you” Full Stop!
