It is very convenient to use and can be used immediately after purchase. The aquarium is highly recommended. The venue is not big, but everything that should be planned is quite complete! The animals at Melbourne Zoo look healthy and make people want to go there again.

Although the tour guide was late that day and made us wait outside for nearly an hour in the cold weather, the tour guide was very handsome and made up for everything 😂

We had a fantastic time with Warren, our cheery and helpful tour guide! The Great Ocean Road was a major highlight of our Melbourne visit thanks to both the beauty of the place and the energy brought by Warren.

The tour guide Camiella is very attentive and the whole trip is arranged just right. Although the penguins cannot take pictures, they can better use their eyes to record it. It is an unforgettable experience.

Easy to book. Really convenient as we wanted to wait til we reach Melbourne and see how the weather is like before we booked for the activities on that day. We booked the return trip Skybus and Melbourne Zoo. Skybus is comfortable and has frequent timing if you missed it. Melbourne Zoo is huge and our 3 yr old son had fun running around and seeing variety of animals there.

On this sunny day, I took a comfortable bus to the long-awaited Great Ocean Road. What was surprising was that the driver could speak fluent Chinese and English, and his knowledge was very broad. He also added three additional scenic spots to stop at. Each one was an accident and a surprise. I strongly recommend this travel agency.
