Just fantastic! Sharif was our guide, high-energy and enthusiastic, entertaining and knowledgeable. He even played the didgeridoo for us, quite impressive!! Just a great day, with a super guide host! Brighton Beach, the sanctuary, nobbies...and the highlight of the trip was the penguin parade (I have never seen anything so cute as 2000 penguins waddling home, in groups of 10-30). Breath-taking. We saw wallabies at dusk, of course the animals at the sanctuary which was very informative, birds, an echidna during the drive; Sharif was quick to point things out. Great tour!

Sherif was an excellent tour guide—knowledgeable, informative, and incredibly helpful. He went out of his way to assist solo travelers with taking pictures, ensuring everyone had great memories to take home. Highly recommended!

Rob was such a fun and kind tour guide that made the experience better! Everything was well paced but may be a little better during the summer where there is more time before sunset. I would visit all of the stops on my own, so it was great to have them all combined and with a well informed guide! Good combination of views and activities.

What a wonderful day and seeing the penguins arrive was the cherry on the cake. Jacqui was amazing. She was punctual with the pickups in the morning, warm and friendly offering a lot of information to what to expect and what to look for at our various destinations as well as information en route. She was a smooth safe driver and having been a professional driver myself and no point did i feel unsafe. She made the whole experience feel more memorable. A great asset to the company A little tip for Star gazers, when walking along the boardwalk beside the Penguins after they’ve returned there is little light pollution, if its a clear night don’t forget to look up.
