Reviews: Akaroa Harbour 2-Hour Dolphin Nature Cruise

We were very pleasantly surprised by how many dolphins, seals, and penguins we saw. It was a fantastic experience.

Ben, our guide, explained everything in great detail, interestingly and informatively, and in a way that was easy to understand, even for those whose English wasn't perfect – we learned a tremendous amount. 10 out of 10 :)
Reviews: Melbourne Puffing Billy Steam Train + Phillip Island Penguin Island Day Trip
Guest User2026-02-27
This itinerary was really great for us traveling with kids. The penguin watching was in the evening, so we left the hotel around noon, which suited our child's schedule. Our first stop was the Puffing Billy Railway, a popular station with great photo opportunities. It was sunny at first, but halfway through the journey, a sudden downpour started. So we skipped the zoo and went straight to Phillip Island. We saw kangaroos along the way, and Cape Nobis was beautiful. Our guide, Xiao Li, was also fantastic. We did see the baby penguins in the evening, but my older son got impatient in the end. We took many close-up photos though. Highly recommended!
Reviews: [March Off-Season Promotion] Melbourne Great Ocean Road Trail + Gibson Steps Day Trip
Guest User2026-03-04
Before the trip, we compared various platforms and found Ctrip to be the most cost-effective because it's a local travel company. We later saw a branch of Ctrip in the city. The entire itinerary was well-organized and reasonable. Our driver, Mr. Lin, provided very detailed explanations, sharing a lot of information that independent travelers wouldn't encounter. Each stop had a designated time frame, ensuring the overall activity schedule was well-planned. Under Mr. Lin's leadership, the entire group was well-organized and harmonious, even when the tour was fully booked. The scenery along the Great Ocean Road is truly beautiful and worth a visit.
Reviews: Pinnacles Desert Sunset Stargazing Dinner Experience 1-day tour in Perth
Guest User2026-03-01
Most Pinnacles tours are in English, so I joined this tour even though the guide spoke English. I was able to sit in the front row of a small bus, so I could see the scenery on both sides of the road, and the scenery changed as we moved along, which was amazing. The guide was kind, and the tour itself was fun. At Pinnacles, I was impressed by the scenery that seemed like the end of the earth, the sunset, and even the starry sky. The picnic dinner was even more delicious than I expected.
