A truly unique nocturnal experience! An adventure beyond compare

On the night tour, we leave Melbourne mid-afternoon to travel directly to Phillip Island where you will visit Seal Rocks and the Nobbies before entering the world famous Penguin Parade at dusk! Observe the Little Penguins in their nightly ritual crossing of Summerland Beach, a nature lover’s delight. Afterwards, we continue our journey to the Moonlit Wildlife Conservation Park to enter the world of our nocturnal animals!! On this magical lantern-lit night walk, you will meet the endangered Southern Bettongs, Eastern Quolls and rare Fluffy Gliders – not to mention some familiar faces such as kangaroos, koalas, dingoes & wombats when they are most active! Get close to these beautiful animals with the opportunity to hand-feed them and watch as they captivate and intrigue you like never before.

On the afternoon tour, we will visit the Moonlit Wildlife Conservation Park first, where you will see the animals in their natural habitat during the day! Hand-feed the kangaroos, and learn about the conservation work of this important sanctuary. Afterwards we continue onto the Penguin Parade! A must-see experience!
