Reviews: Melbourne Puffing Billy Steam Train + Penguin Island Day Tour [Visit two popular attractions in one day]
Guest User2025-08-18
Since it was a small group, the driver arrived at the hotel on time for pick-up and drop-off. The experience was great with fewer people. The steam train was coal-fired, and the smoke was a bit dirty; I was covered in fine coal dust on the way back, so try not to open your mouth when facing the wind. The penguins were adorable, and you could see them up close from the boardwalk. The starry sky was also beautiful. We had already seen the zoo in Brisbane, so we didn't go again. One hour seemed a bit rushed for the zoo. Kudos to our driver/guide, Banban; he drove very smoothly and also shared some sightseeing tips.

The miniature train was the most memorable part of my trip to Australia!! The itinerary included ample time for meals, making it relatively relaxed. Just be sure to dress warmly and protect yourself from the wind, as it can be windy on the train and the penguins get cold late at night. I recommend bringing binoculars for penguin watching, haha, since cell phones aren't allowed. Also, head to the boardwalk early to see the penguins returning to their nests; you'll get a clearer view than from the beach.

It was a fantastic trip! We set off at 8 AM to catch the earliest little train. The cool, refreshing morning air and the steam from the train were so pleasant. The staff were incredibly helpful, waving goodbye as the train pulled away. We saw many residents and tourists along the way, and everyone greeted us warmly – it was so much fun! Then we went to the zoo and a chocolate factory. The driver kept giving us tips on how to have fun and eat the most cost-effective things. We then visited a beautiful island, and finally, we went to Penguin Island. There weren't many penguins that day, but we still saw a few up close. We didn't get back to the city until after 11 AM. The trip was quite long, and the driver was the most tired, as he had to drop us off and then drive home himself. I highly recommend this tour! Small car transportation, fewer people, and comfortable.

There were around 20 people on the tour, including Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Westerners, and other Asians. There were many rest stops along the way, and if you got hungry, there were places to buy snacks or KFC, so we had plenty of fun on the bus. ☺︎ Of course, the tourist spots were also very beautiful, so I didn't feel pressed for time.

At first, I was a little worried because it was a Chinese-language tour, but Guide Carter kindly explained everything in English, so I was able to complete the trip safely. Please note that you need to bring cash for zoo admission. Also, on the Puffing Billy train, you can see a more spectacular view if you sit on the left side relative to the direction of travel.
