Reviews: Melbourne Puffing Billy Steam Train & Phillip Island Penguin Parade one-day tour

If you have some free time in Melbourne, I recommend this itinerary 🌿
Start your healing journey by taking a train and viewing the vast fields 🌳 What I remember most about Maru Zoo is how the koalas sleep all day, and how the kangaroos lie down next to people... 🐨🦘
Finally, end your healing journey with a visit to Phillip Island, where you'll see penguins and their adorableness 🐧

Reviews: Melbourne Puffing Billy Steam Train + Penguin Island Day Tour [Visit two popular attractions in one day]

Since it was a small group, the driver picked us up at the hotel on time. The small crowds made the experience very good. The steam train burned coal, and the smoke was a bit dirty. I was covered in fine coal dust when I returned, so I tried not to open my mouth when facing the wind. The penguins were cute, and you could see them up close on the boardwalk. The starry sky was also beautiful. I had already seen the zoo in Brisbane, so I didn't go. I felt that an hour was a bit tight for the zoo. I would like to praise the driver and tour guide, Banban, for his steady driving and also for teaching us some sightseeing tips.

The little train wasn't too crowded. Having done my research beforehand, I sat on the side with the best view of the iconic arch of the bridge, which was great. The staff were all very friendly.
The scenery at Cape Nobis was truly stunning. Even though it was cloudy, the view created a wonderful atmosphere.
Our driver, Mr. Wu, was very responsible 😊 and the other members of our group were also great; everyone was punctual.
It got quite chilly on Phillip Island at night; even in my light down jacket, I was still shivering.
🌟Special praise to the online customer service! They responded quickly and resolved issues promptly, which was very reassuring.

The whole trip was amazing! The English guide spoke excellent English and patiently explained the penguin habits and the history of the train. The train journey through the sea of flowers was so relaxing, and the little penguins' wobbly walks upon arriving at the penguin colony were so adorable! The itinerary was well-planned and kept us on track. The staff were incredibly attentive and even provided hot drinks. Definitely recommend!

At first, I was a little worried because the tour was in Chinese, but our guide, Carter, kindly explained things in English, so I was able to complete the tour without any problems. Please note that you'll need to bring cash for zoo admission. Also, for the Puffing Billy train, sit on the left side of the train for a better view.
