Melbourne City Tour and Phillip Island Day Tour

If you want to cover a lot in one day, this tour pairs a morning look around Melbourne with an afternoon and evening trip to Phillip Island. It’s a small-group experience capped at 11 people, so it should feel more personal than a big coach tour. You’ll get a guided city tour, a walking look through Melbourne’s lanes and arcades, entry to Moonlit Sanctuary, time at the Nobbies boardwalks, and the Phillip Island Penguin Parade. Hotel pickup and drop-off from selected city centre hotels is included, which makes the long day easier to manage.

The day starts in Melbourne at 8:30am with pickup from selected city centre hotels. In the morning, you’ll see the city’s main attractions with a local guide and do a 45-minute walking tour through Melbourne’s laneways and arcades at a relaxed pace. After that, you’ll head out to Moonlit Sanctuary to learn more about Australian wildlife before continuing to Phillip Island. There, you’ll visit the Nobbies boardwalks and then finish the day at the Penguin Parade, where you can watch the little penguins come up the beach. After the parade, you’ll return to the city.
