Overview

NOTE: All viewing upgrades available on our website.
Our award-winning small group Phillip Island Penguin and Nature experience focuses on wildlife, conservation and understanding and the rugged scenery, culminating in the world-famous Little Penguin Parade in the evening without the typical tourist attraction "fillers".

On the Island we visit a family-run open range wildlife sanctuary (we are the only tour operator that visits here - avoiding crowds for a fabulously relaxed and up close experience) where you can feed Kangaroos and Wallabies, meet and walk amongst 80 species of Australian native animals and birds. A fully guided interactive experience! You travel in the ultimate comfort of a Mercedes Benz vehicle designed for Australian touring conditions (11 guests) exclusively by us - no other operators vehicles even come close!.

The Little Penguin Parade in the evening is the pinnacle event of this truly nature-based experience. Our guest reviews articulate our quality!
