If you love nature and wildlife then this small group tour from Melbourne is the right pick for you! Departing from the city, you'll head out to some of the most popular nature spots including Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park before arriving at Phillip Island to visit The Nobbies and watch the world famous Penguin Parade. At the Moonlit Sanctuary, take a stroll through the Wallaby Walk to see some Australian favourites including Koalas, Tasmanian Devils and Wallabies and Kangaroos.
