Awesome experience! We rode a coaster (plenty of space) so it was a comfortable trip. Amazing views of the Ocean Road. We were not so lucky with the weather because it was cloudy and rainy. But overall I highly recommend the trip especially if you are only spending few days in Melbourne.

The instructor is very good and the whole activity is very thoughtful. However, the water quality of the Melbourne River is a bit dirty, so it is recommended to wear long pants, but the overall experience is good.

We had so much fun on the Phillip Island tour. Our lovely guide Cloe was amazing, she is very friendly, full of positive energy, and she always gave us great talks about history, fun fact, and useful tips in the bus along the road to each destination. The views and experiences were great and very worth it. The Penguins are very cute and hardworking, love the zoo animals as well. Thanks a lot!
