About this experience
What to expect
Start your adventure with a warm welcome and complimentary barista-made coffee at the Melbourne Arts Centre. From there, travel in comfort to our first stop of the day, San Remo, the charming fishing village that marks the gateway to Phillip Island.
Your next stop is a highlight: a guided wine tasting and shared grazing platter at Phillip Island Winery, followed by a delicious gourmet lunch in a picturesque setting.
After lunch, choose your afternoon experience. You can stroll through Cowes—Phillip Island’s main township—with time to enjoy its beaches and boutiques. Or, upgrade to visit the Koala Conservation Reserve, where you’re guaranteed to see koalas in their native habitat.
As golden hour approaches, head to The Nobbies, known for its breathtaking clifftop views and local wildlife. A sparkling wine on board sets the tone for a relaxed and scenic evening.
Your final stop is the unforgettable Penguin Parade. Settle in with your general viewing ticket and witness thousands of Little Penguins return from the ocean at sunset—a must-see Australian wildlife experience.
This tour is perfect for nature lovers, solo travellers, couples, and food & wine enthusiasts. With our guaranteed window seat for every booking, spacious vehicles, and a relaxed, social vibe, you’ll experience Phillip Island the Local Way—authentic, indulgent, and unforgettable.
