The melbourne pass is quite worth it but keep in mind that you check the individual prices of the activities to make sure you are not paying extra through the Klook pass. e.g. choosing 3 activities comes out to be around 30 SGD per activity but some activities would cost less while others more so pick wisely!

Very enjoyable tour to Philip Island with our very nice tour guide Robbo! Robbo shared with us many different stories of the places we visited and told many jokes. For the penguin parade, would highly recommend paying extra for Penguin Plus!
