Island Departure: Phillip Island Wine, Wildlife and Penguins Tour

Meet your Guide at your designated pickup location on Phillip Island.
Soon enough you will be on-board your midi-coach, with your premium seat on board, meeting your fellow travellers, and enjoying an immersive and captivating tour of Phillip Island

Arriving into this beautiful estate, you’ll quickly realise why the Phillip Island Winery is a favoured spot for both locals and visitors alike.

Take part in a Wine Tasting Experience at the cellar door – tasting a range of different wines harvested throughout the Gippsland Region.
Accompanying your tasting is a delicious grazing board, full of meats, cheeses, breads, and other gourmet delights.

You will then indulge in a delicious winery feast, consisting of mouth-watering woodfired pizzas, sea-salted fries, and gourmet salads.

Take some time out to buy more wine, beers, or ciders should you wish – it’s a relaxed experience here.

Note: on days when the winery is closed, we enjoy our wine & feast at a sea-side restaurant in Cowes.

One of the most beautiful beaches on Phillip Island, and iconic of golden sands and glistening waters found in these areas.
You will have a chance to walk in the soft sand, admire the beautiful horizon, and soak in the sea-air of this local beach – one that Chris Hemsworth himself has enjoyed since a young boy.

This is already one of Phillip Island’s main attractions, simply for the sheer beauty it possess – however, we visit this stunning spot right on Golden Hour, allowing us a perfect sight over the glistening waters and rocky cliffs.

Enjoy this moment with a Glass of Sparking Wine as you enjoy the views and take  a walk along the boardwalk, taking in spectacular sights, and glimpses of native wildlife.

We depart from here along the back roads, providing us unparalleled views over Westernport Bay and Bass Strait, with even more wildlife to spot. 

A “must do” whilst in Melbourne/Victoria, the Penguin Parade has long been the star attraction of Phillip Island. 

We arrive here early enough so as you can take some time in this world-class visitor centre, and grab a bite to eat from the cafe should you wish.

You will then make your way out to the Penguin Viewing Platform, awaiting the arrival of the stars of the shows – the Little Penguins.

As the sun begins to set, your ranger-guide will provide you information on these cute little creatures, and then you will see literally thousands of them make their way onto the beach and up the hill side.

Walk along the boardwalk as you get within inches of these native Australian Penguins, admiring their uniqueness and cuteness alike.

Once we have had our cuteness overload, we board back on the bus – making our way back to Melbourne…with plenty of good memories to accompany us for the journey back

All good things must come to an end – we will get you back to your pickup location and bid you farewell.
