This is a topnotch tour. The tour guide/owner Nicki was fabulous. Very knowledgeable and accommodating. The Koala encounter and Kangaroo feedings were highlights of our trip. We especially loved our lunch and wine tasting. Best meal of the trip!
Fantastic and fun

Wonderful small group experience. Easy to find at the pier. Wonderful leisurely but focused pace. Amazing lunch! Fun and informative guide, Billy! Coordinated with cruise ship schedules so book direct and skip the cruise line chaos.
Highly recommend

While feeding the kangaroos and seeing the koalas was a highlight, the lunch at the winery was delightful.
Response from Host, Mar 2024
Thanks Jay. We have chosen the best dining experience on the Mornington Peninsula for our guests. All the best
Kangaroos & Koalas Kraziness!
Rebecca_S, Feb 2024
Koala experience. Meeting with the kangaroos and wallabies. Our guide was excellent, ran out of time to visit the beach bungalows (due to traffic). Expected more at the wine location (thought there would be actual tasting, not just a glass with lunch). Food was amazing.
Response from Host, Feb 2024
Thanks Rebecca! Happy you had a great day. We prioritise activities to get everyone back to the ship comfortably and on time and fit in as much as possible. Happy cruising 🛳️🛳️🚢🛳️🚢
Nice shore excursion
Ellen_S, Feb 2024
Loved the wildlife sanctuary. Got to feed and pet the wallabies. Recommend you spend extra for the koala experience. Lunch included a wine tasting - outstanding. Made it back to the ship with time to spare.
Response from Host, Feb 2024
Thank you Ellen. Getting back to the ship with time to spare is what we do! Happy travels and we hope to meet again
Don’t miss this
