Amazing guide and amazing tour Josh is such an amazing tour guide, so informative, friendly and is always thoughtful of us.

Penguin Island Fun with Animal Sightings Excellent tour! Josh was fantastic. Extremely knowledgable and super engaged. He knee the best place to set for the Penguin Parade. Multiple animal sightings on way to the Penguin Center

Great experience but not spectacular. Overall it was a great experience and glad we did it. Bummer that we had a lot of fog so we did not see many penguins. Only complaint would be not enough time to really get dinner. You can at best do grab and go. Also you are not allowed to take pictures once the sun sets and the penguins do not come until after that. Our guide did find one in a burrow before sunset so we at least got one picture.

Penguins were unreal Josh was even better 🐧⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Unforgettable experience, Josh was incredibly knowledgable around our tour and attentive to every need of our group; an experience I will hold with me forever.

Best day ever We were not expecting to see the amazing variety of animals at the sanctuary and were so thrilled to be able to see koalas and kangaroos up close. The penguins were incredible. Penguin premium is a must to see them all so close. Josh was very knowledgeable and very patient. He also very kindly took lovely group photos for us. Would HIGHLY recommend. Thank you Josh

Penguin Parade, and Moonlit sanctuary We had a great trip. Travis was a wonderful guide. He was able to share his passion for all of the creatures that we encountered in a way that enhanced the experience for all of us. Travis is the best!

Stop looking and book this tour! Just did this tour yesterday and loved it! Fred was an amazing storyteller and guide. A great guide makes all the difference, and Fred is one of the best. This tour is a great combination of driving around and walking to see the most interesting sights in Melbourne. Would recommend this tote to anyone.

Best tour guide Fred was a fantastic guide! Very informative, quite funny, and an all around great guy. Can we request him for every tour?

Fabulous 9 hr Tour wild Life sanctuary and penguins of Philip Island Fabulous tour of Moonlight Wildlife sanctuary and Oenguins of Phillip Island. At sanctuary we got to hand fed wallabies and kangaroos in open areas, guide Travis knew every animal’s name and behavior that made the trip great. Saw koalas up close, wombats, cockatoos and other birds, ducks, geese, Tasmanian devils, dingos and other rescued and well cared for wildlife. Had to rush through as only an hour and needed to get early dinner to est on hour drive to Phillip island. Once on beautiful Phillip island we had a rushed drive to beautiful views and no time to stop and see wildlife being pointed out then a last minute arrival at 5:40pm for the amazing Penguin Parade wildlife park. Great directions from our guide but even with upgraded viewing being so late we got seats facing the canyon and not the ocean although a ranger later found us 2 seats facing the ocean to see the penguins swim in and then up the pathways to their burrows. We also had underground viewing category so got to see more videos of landings and closer up views of penguins scurrying to their burrows. Also saw penguins along the protected walkways. Has to rush to then get back to van for leaving by 6:45 to get back to city and drop offs 8:30-9 pm.
Trip should leave a couple hours earlier so no rushing and time to fully see and enjoy both the remarkable Moonlight Sanctuary, get early dinner to go and get to Phillip island to tour then to penguin park earlier to enjoy the exhibits at the visitors center and spend more time watching the fun fairy penguins that don’t start Landing from sea till dark. Felt rushed at both of the best parts of tour but did see a lot of wonderful wildlife.

Thank you for an unforgettable day Thank you so much Travis for an amazing experience. He was very kind, fun and knowledgeable of the places. Took a few nice pics for us as well. It was an experience which we wouldn't have been able to do if we rented a car and did it ourselves. His explanation of each place as well as tips e.g., best spot to watch the penguin parade was very helpful - absolutely worth the money. Thank you again Travis.

Delightful introduction to Australia This trip was excellent! We had recently arrived in Australia, do a half day trip was a good choice. The visit to Moonlit Sanctuary was a real highlight. My granddaughters got to personally interact with koalas, kangaroos and wallabies. Then the penguin parade topped off the evening. Our guide, Travis, was really amazing. He was well informed and gave us helpful and interesting information. He went above and beyond to make sure we were delivered back safely. The whole experience was delightful and worth every penny

An excellent day trip for the family We were incredibly fortunate to have met Fred, our guide for the day. In our opinion, he made the trip exciting and engaging even during the downtime during the drive to and from the sites. This is exactly what we were looking for on our small-group tour.

Fred arrived a bit early to pick us up. Child car seats were provided. Before we knew it, we were at the Moonlit Sanctuary. He gave each of our two children (ages 9 and 6) some roo food so they could feed the wandering kangaroos and wallabies. Our visit to the sanctuary included some time checking out the other animals, including the wombat, koala, and dingoes.

Afterwards, we drove through the Nobbies to glimpse at the magnificent coastline. We also happened to spy upon a penguin resting in its home, waiting for others to return later that evening.

The penguin parade was also a sight to behold. We highly recommend upgrading to the Penguins Plus experience. Aside from just better viewing, where you’ll see the penguins return home as they pass by the seating area, some will hang out just outside arm’s length, as they appear to have made a home under the seating area itself. That gives plenty of time to admire them up close. If you don’t have a good seat at first, just be patient. Plenty will open up later. Everyone (part of the tour or not) only gets about 50 minutes to observe the penguins before lights turned off.

Our kids found this the best thing they did in Melbourne this trip. This is a must-do experience for penguin and animal lovers.

Marvellous half day tour Josh, our guide was fantastic and super friendly. He was very punctual and explained things very well to us.

Nice and enjoyable half day tour Good experience and well-maintained moonlit sanctuary. Can feed kangaroos and wallabies. The guide Josh is very nice and knowledgeable.

Awesome experience We had Josh as our guide and he was exceptional! He was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of info/ history and fun anecdotes!
He made sure we were safe and comfortable through out our experience
He is very polite and respectful and kind
I liked the gesture of the comfy seats he provided us for the cold evening with the penquins! We had a fun after noon with him seeing the wildlife and the penguin parade
We appreciated the useful tips he provided to enhance our experience

Incredible experience because of Fred our guide was Fred and he made the tour ever so enjoyable. His knowledge and stories were awesome. He keeps people smiling and if you go on a tour with Oceania request Fred.

Great Trip Such a great experience! Josh was so a great tour guide and the animals were adorable 🥰

Amazing day with Travis I had a wonderful trip to see the penguins with Travis. He was incredibly kind, extremely knowledgeable, and shared excellent stories and anecdotes about the animals and the history of the area. It was definitely not an ordinary tour, it was exceptionally well organised, thoughtful, and delivered with great care and kindness. I would highly recommend it. Thanks a lot for the wonderful day 🤗✨

Spectacular day trips to Philip Island and Great Ocean Road We booked a tour of Philip Island and Great Ocean Road with Fred. What a wonderful two days! Our day trip to Philip Island included a stop at Moonlit Sanctuary. Moonlit is a well run wildlife sanctuary that includes a koala experience, access to wallabies and kangaroos, dingoes and even a Tasmanian devil! After our time there, we left to Philip Island. Fred gave us a lot of information about Philip Island, animals of the area and local culture. The experience at Philip Island was second to none. One of the best wildlife parks experiences I’ve ever had. We were in a group of 10 which allowed us special access to the beach which had less tourists. This is well worth it!
The second day we did the Great Ocean Road. It was a beautiful experience. Fred made sure we stopped at unique lookout points. We enjoyed a lovely lunch and then headed to the Twelve Apostles. It truly was remarkable. Well worth the visit! Thank you to Fred for making these two days so memorable.

Moonlit Sanctuary & Philip Island It was an amazing experience that we had through the entire tour. We were guided by Travis, who was exceptional! His knowledge and passion for wildlife was really inspiring! He went out of his way to share his knowledge, experiences and his amazing camera roll! Cheers

As for the Penguin parade at Philip Island, a Penguin Plus pass is highly recommended.

Richard is a great guide We had a fabulous day seeing the animals at the sanctuary!! The penguin parade was great and worth fighting the crowds. Richard was the best guide and driver. He made our experience 5/5 and he was top notch!! Highly recommend doing an excursion with Richard.

Our trip to Phillip Island was absolutely wonderful. The entire day was a breeze and felt like it flew by in the blink of an eye. Our guide, Richard, was exceptional—so kind, funny, and welcoming. On top of that, his Italian was perfect, which made everything so easy and enjoyable for us. Thank you Richard, and Oceania Tours, for an incredible day!

Amazing 12 Apostles tour from Melbourne! We are traveling from Italy and really loved this experience.
A special thanks to our guide, Sarah, who was fantastic at explaining every stop in a clear and engaging way. We visited breathtaking places and also had the chance to meet people from different nationalities during the tour, she was also incredibly helpful in giving us information about other tours for the next few days and recommending the perfect upgrade for our trip.
A big plus for Sarah is her very clear and easy-to-understand English, perfect for international travelers. Highly recommended!

Moonlit Century and Philip Island Great experience visiting the Moonlit century, Philip Island with a great sunset view.

Very enjoyable Wish we could have spent more time at the wildlife park.

Brilliant trip full of lovely surprises along the way Ociana day trip to Phillip island was amazing, so much to see and the Moonlight animal sanctuary was just brilliant, thank you Travis our driver and escort for the day, Travis is very informative and knowledgeable about the Island, the penguins and other animals. Book this trip you won’t be disappointed. Thank you Travis

Phillip island tour Very enjoyable tour. Our tour guideTravis was great, and very knowledgeable. Really enjoyed the penguins coming out of the water.

Amazing experience with Travis! We had a wonderful time! Loved the experience. Great places, great vibes, and an even greater travel partner today..

Tour Tess was our guide and she was very knowledgeable passed on local history, interesting local NFL and played local music for us to get more of an Australian experience which rates high for me. Despite rain part of trip made sure we did the most for our day and still enjoyed the outing. Great guide👍🏻

Paul and Kim

Sarah, our guide, was lovely. Friendly and knowledgable. The trip didn’t feel rushed, was nicely timed and planned. Feeding the kangaroos and wallabies was great. Deffo recommend

Great nature tour, made better by having Travis as our guide If you like animals and want a great time outside of the city, you can’t beat this tour. This is especially true if you are fortunate enough to have Travis as your guide. Travis is like Steve Irwin - he’s so passionate about, and excited by, the wildlife. His passion added to the wonder and joy of seeing Koalas, Wallabies, Kangaroos, Galahs, Shearwater Birds, Penguins, and more. Travis has a wealth of knowledge and freely shared information and insights on the wildlife, local history, and places to visit in and near Melbourne. I highly recommend, highly recommend this tour and this guide.

Sarah was a very knowledgeable and energetic tour guide. No complaints and no worries. Her working with me on my disability with my movement was handled with extreme success for all of us and me especially. Thank you Sarah and Oceania Tours. It was an awesome Day.

Philip island Moonlit Sanctuary experience Josh was really nice guide and the trip to Philip island and moonlit sanctuary was as so very nice.
Enjoyed it very much.
Very insightful information about different animals

Magical Travis took us to spend a special evening with the penguins of Phillip Island, educating and entertaining us along the way. We also got to meet other Australian wildlife including the cutest (awake!) koalas at Moonlit Sanctuary. Travis is passionate about conservation - you can tell he truly cares about and bonds with the animals seen on the tour. Thanks, Travis, for a great day!

Super Tour Travis is a fantastic guide. His passion fro the animals and the environment sets him apart from other tour guides.

Amazing Experience What an amazing experience to watch the penguin parade at Philip Island. Our trip with Travis was fun and educational. Travis is very knowledgeable and has so many stories that made it more fun and memorable. He is very professional and gave us is enough time to enjoy the animals. He also stopped us at beautiful spots for photos. It was a great tour with Travis overall.

Excellent The Moonlit Sanctuary was amazing, Phillip Island - spectacular views and adorable penguins. Travis was an excellent guide. Professional and friendly.

The best! The best way to learn a lot about Phillip Island, the 'mini'-penguins and a lot of animals of that region of Australia. Travis is the best guide you can have for that: his enthusiasm, care for nature and for the people he is showing around made this the most valuable experience for us. On the road we also got Australia-music overviews. Simply the best!

Great tour! Great tour! Well organized, great commentary and we saw lots of animals!

Must see the penguins Travis was great tour guide. He was very enjoyable and knowledgeable. He gave wonderful tips on the best views of the penguins.

Great time on the Phillip Island Penguin and wildlife tour. We had a great experience for the Phillip Island tour with Earl and Travis. The additional information they provided throughout the day was very enjoyable and they went out of their way to get us as close as possible to all the wildlife we encountered today. Both Earl and Travis were friendly and engaged with the group. I would highly recommend this tour. I also recommend splurging for the Penguin Plus option as you get much closer to the penguins when they arrive on the beach.

Magical experience from Marlborough to the penguin parade. Parade itself was amazing Travis helped us to be comfortable in chilly weather, showed a passion for the wild animals, and coached us all on how to maximize our experience and enjoy the parade of penguins

Fabulous tour guide! Had a lovely day with Travis touring Philip Island and the Penguin Parade! Travis is so knowledgeable and we learned so much from him today. Thank you Travis!!

Exceeded our expectations!! This was an amazing tour! Travis our guide was great - he has a lot of passion for the animals and Australia! He went way out of his way to ensure we had a hreat time and saw lots of penguins (and other animals).

Fun family trip Josh was very informative and we had a lovely family trip.

What an incredible day - not to be missed! We had an amazing day trip along the Great Ocean Road with Burt, our driver and guide. He led a small group of us and drove over 500km in one day but his enthusiasm and knowledge of the area never waned. We saw koalas and kangaroos in the wild and had spectacular views of the coast and the Twelve Apostles. Burt also made sure we had lots of photo opportunities and breaks to stretch our legs and time for lunch. Highly recommended!

Penguin Supreme It was super enjoyable and we got loads of interesting information. Josh was a great guide!

An Excursion not to be missed when in Melbourne! Josh of Oceania Tours was outstanding and very knowledgeable. He made the time very enjoyable! Really enjoyed the Australian Wildlife Sanctuary and the Penguin Parade of the Little Penguins. Having the Penguin Plus tickets enabled us to get up close to these remarkable animals..This is something that should not be missed when in Melbourne!

Oceana Phillip Island, Moonlit Sanctuary and Penguin Parade Josh was our tour guide and was excellent., knowledgeable, thoughtful informative and energetic. The bus was comfortable with great viewing. We stopped at Moonlit Sanctuary, an animal park where we saw a wide variety of native Australian animals up close including feeding them out of our hand. Along the way we saw wallabies, a variety of birds, and several achidnas. We stopped at several beautiful coastal viewing sites including the Nobbies. The highlight of course was the march of the little penguins where he positioned us in an ideal spot for viwing. I would highly recommend Oceana.

A really great tour (Great Ocean Road Small Group Tour from Melbourne).
Sarah was our driver, guide, teacher, and overall entertainment. Highly recommend this tour and Sarah.

A fantastic day in Melbourne visiting Brighton Beach and the Moonlit Sanctuary. The tour was great and Gary even greater. His knowledge and sense of humor made it unforgettable. Thank you.
