About this tour
Spend eight hours on Phillip Island with a Spanish-speaking guide exploring three wildlife experiences. Start at Moonlit Sanctuary to hand-feed koalas, kangaroos and wallabies, then head to the Nobbies to watch Australia's largest fur seal colony. The day culminates at the Penguin Parade where little penguins return ashore at dusk—thousands of them waddling past you to their burrows. Small groups capped at 11 people, air-conditioned transport included.

What to expect
Pick-up starts between 1–1:30 pm depending on season. Your guide drives you through the sanctuary first, where you'll walk among native wildlife in open paddocks—expect close encounters with koalas and roos. Next comes the Nobbies clifftop walk to spot seals hauled out on rocks. By late afternoon you'll be stationed on the Penguin Parade viewing area. As light fades, little penguins emerge from the ocean and waddle past in waves. It's unhurried and genuine. You'll be back by 8:30 pm to 11:45 pm depending on the season.
