This was a really good tour from Go West. It fitted into my constrained time envelope and I felt comfortable with small group of strangers thanks to a great guide called Bluey. A good driver, Bluey was very knowledgeable about Phillip Island and the penguins, giving us tips on how to get the best views of the parade; he looked out for our interests but above all his sense of fun helped the tour attendees coalesce as a group

We rode to Penguin Islands in the afternoon after our morning city discovery tour. Loved Chris H's knowledge about Philips Islands. He guided us to the right seats and was accommodative in every way we asked for.
