Phillip Island & Mornington Peninsula Tour (3 Day)

Multi Day Private Tour Itinerary

Day 1

Departs from your Melbourne Hotel/Accommodation in a luxury air conditioned vehicle (departure times vary daily). Your personal driver and experienced local guide will greet you personally and whisk you off towards Phillip Island.

En-route you will stop off at a popular Cranbourne Royal Botanic Gardens and then a local Wildlife Park, to meet some of Australia's iconic animals, including a unique opportunity to handfeed kangaroo's in a natural environment.

Then onto Phillip Island where you head over to Churchill island, a famous old heritage working farm. Here you can experience some old traditional farming techniques, such as sheep shearing, working dogs demonstration and whip cracking.

*Currently Churchill Island is only available seasonally. When not available, we take guests to view a different part of the island.

The Koala Conservation Centre is next, where you can explore the tree-top boardwalks and see koalas up close in their natural habitat.
A short stop at The Nobbies Centre, boasting a stunning boardwalk platform, as well as being home to Australia's largest fur seal population.

The Penguin Parade is the main tour highlight. Take your seats and watch one of nature's most incredible sights. Overnight accommodation - on Phillip Island (own expense).
