Day 1 Arrival Melbourne Airport
Arrive at Melbourne Airport and transfer to your hotel. Spend the rest of the day exploring the city at your leisure. 

Melbourne is a vibrant and cosmopolitan city located in the southeastern state of Victoria, Australia. Known for its eclectic culture, excellent food and coffee, and beautiful parks and gardens, Melbourne is a must-visit destination for any traveler.

Overnight: Melbourne

Day 2 Phillip Island Penguin Parade
Breakfast at the hotel and later transfer to visit Brighton Beach bathing boxes. Guided tour and spectacular "Conservation in action" wildlife show at Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park. 

While most famous for its little penguin population and the annual Motor Grand Prix, there is much more to discover on Phillip Island than birds and bikes. Located 90 minutes southeast of Melbourne in Westernport Bay, the picturesque Phillip Island is a popular travel destination for nature lovers, families, and foodies. Cross the San Remo bridge and enter a world of wild surf beaches, spectacular coastal walks, delicious regional produce, and a wealth of wildlife.

But of course, it’s not a trip to Phillip Island without viewing the little penguins. Home to roughly 32,000 of these adorable seabirds, our Phillip Island Tours offer plenty of opportunities to observe them in their natural habitat. The best spot to watch them as they make their way home from a hard day at work (catching fish out at sea) is at the world-famous Penguin Parade. Take a seat on the beach and witness them cautiously exit the water and waddle up the beach to their home in the dunes. It’s an unforgettable wildlife experience that you just can’t miss!

Later transfer back to the hotel.
Overnight: Melbourne
Meal: Breakfast

Day 3 Great Ocean Road Tour
Enjoy the scrumptious breakfast at the hotel. Later get ready for the Great Ocean Road Tour. Reach to the City Centre Hotel for the pickup for this tour. Stretching along 243 kilometers of breathtaking coastline, the Great Ocean Road is one of Australia’s most scenic road trips. The 12 Apostles are the main attraction, but the real beauty lies in the journey itself. Along this iconic route, you’ll pass through the stunning landscapes of the Surf Coast, Otway Rainforest, and Shipwreck Coast, as well as charming seaside towns and catch glimpses of koalas dozing in the eucalyptus trees. It’s a trip that truly showcases the best of Australia’s natural beauty.

On our Great Ocean Road tours, you’ll be able to experience the beauty of this iconic stretch of road and take in the breathtaking views of the 12 Apostles. These towering limestone stacks are constantly shaped and eroded by the powerful Southern Ocean, and it’s uncertain how many of them will remain standing. But one thing is certain – the stunning views of the coastline and the sound of the waves crashing against the pillars are truly unforgettable. Later return back to the hotel.
