Wonderful experience with Thomas our guide and driver. We were lucky that the conductor rode with us on Puffing Billy and showed us the best turns to take our photos. Thomas showed us the best spots to welcome the Little Penguins. Loved the experience. Thank you Thomas!
Having our tour guide Jim is great from start to finish! Giving us precise and great tidbits facts about the buffing billy and the penguins in philip island. He went the xtra mile to cameo himself in along one of the train track scenes where he came to greet us! What a lovely touch to the experience. I highly recommend it.
The Puffing Billy experience is truly amazing and fun! Watching the steam coming out, the burning coal smell and the fun of having our legs out of the train are unforgettable! It is also amazing to see groups of penguins coming out from the sea and then walking back to their homes. Our guide & driver, Thomas, is great and with good patience.
It was fun and full of insights from our guides. The puffing billy ride was great and we saw penguins up close. Very cute!
Gavin was extremely friendly and engaging throughout the tour.. Such a happy guide! Kindly shared his knowledge about Melbourne, which was helpful for my future return to the city.. Hope to be his passenger again!
