More Information

Leaving Melbourne we journey through the Gippsland region directly to Phillip Island and make our first stop at the Rhyll Trout & Bush Tucker Farm. Upon arrival our guests enjoy a guided bush tucker tour through three hectares of native food crops to learn about the fascinating array of edible fruits, berries, seeds leaves & flowers that were harvested by the Koori people over millennia.

Here, we also enjoy a delicious lunch with our menu offering selections to meet a broad range of tastes. Perhaps enjoy the freshest possible fried trout, plucked from the trout farm’s ponds just minutes before landing on your plate, seasoned with lemon myrtle from the bush tucker garden.

Departing Rhyll, we travel to the famous Koala Conservation Centre to meet some of the friendly locals. We’ll walk among the treetops and view the numerous wild koalas up close at this iconic wildlife attraction.

We’ll journey next to the delightful Phillip Island Winery where we’ll enjoy a gourmet afternoon tea featuring not only a range of locally produced wines, but also a selection of Gippsland’s finest cheeses and other gourmet produce. The tasting is accompanied by an informative presentation about each of the foodstuffs sampled, ensuring an experience that is educational as well as truly mouth-watering.

A visit to Point Grant and The Nobbies gives us an opportunity to enjoy views over Westernport Bay and Bass Strait, including Seal Rocks, home to Australia’s largest population of fur seals.

And then it’s onwards to the main event, where just after dark every night the world’s smallest penguins waddle ashore after spending the day fishing out at sea. Join a fully ranger-guided group of no more than ten at the Penguin Parade for an experience you’ll never forget. Enjoy special ranger interpretation in a more natural setting and a complimentary hot beverage as well as priority seating in front of the general viewing area and access to the Penguins Plus boardwalk where you’ll enjoy unrivalled views of the nightly parade..  You’ll be truly enchanted as the stars of the show emerge from the surf and pass right before your eyes on their journey back to their homes. 

After the parade we allow plenty of time to explore the Visitor Centre before beginning our own journey back to Melbourne.
