Had an awesome day out with Rod.
Small group of 6 including us, Rod shared his local knowledge and showed us some hidden gems on Phillip Island. Will return again without hesitation.

Katelynn was an exceptional guide! The whole experience at the winery was fabulous, topped off with an amazing lunch. The ultimate experience was seeing the penguins! Truly a lifetime memory - but please honour the rules and don’t take photos. Enjoy the experience as you see it.

Sue our guide made the trip fantastic. It was so much more than the penguins. And the food and wine was wow.

Plus it was such a small group which really made it fun.

We’d love to say we actually got to take this tour, but we didn’t. We got a call an hour before the tour staying there was no tour guide nor a replacement for the one assigned who became ill. The company sent a text for another company we could call and arrange for a tour. After we contacted Viator, we tour operator then arranged with another company for us to take a tour with them to Phillip Island. It was a less expensive tour, and we had to ask for them to refund the difference. The tour had parts we did not care about, and excluded others we wanted- like no wine tour and no dinner. At least the tour operator arranged another tour, however substandard to what we paid for initially, which is why we are rating two stars. But to run a tourist company with no back up plan is ridiculous. And the fact that Viator took no responsibility makes it even worse.

This trip was an absolute highlight for my husband, my friend and I from the very start to the very end. Rod was absolutely fabulous bringing all the group together and we had such a lot of laughs along the way. The wine tasting was very good and the accompanying cheese, crackers, meats, dips, cauliflower, olives and strawberries were absolutely delicious and plentiful.

We also paid extra to see the koala bears and whilst we didn’t have long we managed to see five in their natural habitat and we also saw Wallabies.

We then stopped along the way and had a group photograph on Phillip Island which will bring back lovely memories. We did see penguins but only about 20 but we were happy with this and they were very cute.

Later on another couple joined the group and we all sat down together and shared pizza and whilst making new friends from all over the world.

Thank you very much Rod for an extremely enjoyable day from the couple from Penrith, England and their friend from Sydney.

Really glad I took a tour with this company.

The great parts:

Caitlyn, our guide was a delight. She is incredibly well informed, prepared, funny, helpful, thoughtful and professional. Loved her curated playlist, information on wildlife and insider tips.

The tour started and ended on time and I personally found it sufficient time to spend at each spot. There is a nice variety of things to see and do and something for everyone.

Loved the little touches - a postcard, a Gippsland guide to dining etc.

Quite a bit of wine is served on the tour :) which is quite fun.

The communication about pick up, drop, stops etc. were really clear. There was space to keep bags if any and that was helpful too.

If anything, the only thing perhaps for me was that I'm a big bodied person and I wrestled with the seat belt quite a bit and was quite uncomfortably perched on it. Given its a legal requirement, I had to have it on and anyone built like me or bigger would struggle a bit with that. Made the return journey quite strenuous. I'm unsure if anything can be done about that, but it is something to keep in mind.

This trip was an absolute blast. Our guide, Rod, was one in a million. He was full of knowledge and made everyone in the group feel welcomed.

The flexibility of the tour was appreciated. We got to experience Koalas while the rest of our group enjoyed the small town.

Thanks for the memories, Rod!
