Leider ist dieser Anbieter nicht weiterzuempfehlen
Leider nicht weiterzuempfehlen. Philip Island ist eigentlich ein sehr schöner Ausflugsort aber definitiv mit einem anderen Anbieter. Leider haben wir die sehr negativen anderen Bewertungen erst nach der Buchung bei Google gelesen, nachdem wir sehr komische E-Mails erhalten haben. Erst sagte man uns, dass die Tour an einem Tag stattfinden wird, als wir sie gebucht haben und dann erzählte man uns von irgendeiner Tour nach Sydney?! Wir hatten die Philip Island Tour gebucht. Nach mehreren komischen E-Mails und einem Anruf wussten wir bis an demselben Tag nicht, ob die Tour stattfinden wird oder nicht. Erst ein paar Stunden vorher dann. Bei der Tour selbst hörten wir auch von anderen Kunden dass diese einfach umgebucht worden waren. Da wir sehr viele andere Touren in Australien und NZ schon gemacht hatten, können wir von dieser nur abraten. Klar waren die besuchten Orte schön, jedoch liegt das ja nicht am Veranstalter. Auch erzählte uns unser Guide dass er mit anderen Anbietern kooperieren würde, welche wir daraufhin fragten und dieser es deutlich verneinte. Alles in allem einfach sehr komisch und unseriös... Also am besten mit einem anderen Veranstalter buchen.

Thanks for the email as with all 1 star reviews we investigate what has happen.... As upon investigation we were following the terms and conditions you agree upon. They are if the tour is lacking numbers we have the right to cancel, transfer you or refund you your money as we did the right thing. We cant run a tour with two people the wages, fuel and entry fees etc make up about 500 aud estimation to run it for 2 people will mean we will lose about 400 aud. We did offer to put you another partners bus or put you another day and you werent happy with this . Please I encourage you as a frequent travellor myself who has been on about 50 plane trips in 5 years please read the terms and conditions I also think your language towards is not fair and quite harsh.... Thanks bill.

Unprofessionell und unzuverlässig
Die Tour wurde unprofessionell kurzfristig storniert. Mir wurde spät am Abend ein Ersatztermin für den nächsten Morgen angeboten. Als ich morgens anrief und fragte ob wir denn heute mit fahren könnten, wurde mir nur ein Platz angeboten. Er meinte: Entweder Einer oder keiner. Danke für Nichts.

Schrecklich
Ursprünglich sollte die Tour um 12 starten, letztendlich aber um 13:15 Uhr. Dann mussten wir jedoch noch 45Min auf den Bus warten, sodass wir erst um 14 Uhr losgekommen sind. Unser erstes Ziel war ein Tierpark, der schrecklich überfüllt war und wo die Tiere auf sehr engem Raum leben mussten. Danach sind wir zu einer Schokoladenfabrik, die nicht auf dem Plan stand und wir auch nicht nachgefragt wurden, ob wir dahin möchten. Dort war es auch total überfüllt. Das Ende war die Höhe; da wollte der Busfahrer ohne uns losfahren, weil wir 15Min zu spät vom Pinguinbeobachten wieder gekommen sind. Der ganze Tag war ein großer Reinfall!

Wonderful driver
Neil was our driver and he was spectacular. He was very knowledgeable about the route but more than that, he always slowed down and even stopped when we happened across wildlife so we could take photos. He drove us nice and slow across Phillip Island so we could peak in all the penguins burrows unlike other tour buses we saw that sped across the landscape. On the way back, it was raining quite heavily and past midnight so he took the time to drop every passenger off at their hotel door. Bottled water was provided on the bus. We would have liked more time at each of the stops but we understand that the bus needs to keep to a schedule. Overall, it was great value for money and much cheaper than paying for a rental car, petrol and entry fees on our own.

Anders als gedacht
Ich bin nicht mit dieser Firma gefahren, weil zu wenige Leute sie gebucht haben. Deswegen bekam ich eine Mail, ob ich entweder später oder bei einer anderen Firma mitfahren wolle. Hab die zweite Option genutzt und bin mit Autopia Tours gefahren. Sehr schönes Erlebnis mit Fokus auf die Tierwelt Australiens. Die Fahrt in den Zoo, war in soweit schön, als dass man Kängurus und Wallabies füttern und streicheln durfte und ein paar australische Tierarten relativ aus der Nähe bewundern durfte. Das es n Zoo war, muss man an sich kritisieren, zu kleine Gehege für die Dingos bspw. Die Pinguine am Abend ließen lange auf sich warten, aber die Tipps vom Guide haben sehr geholfen wenigstens ein paar auf dem Rückweg zum Bus zu sehen. Ansonsten... ziemlich viele Touristen, kann die Pinguine verstehen, die deswegen in ihren Brithöhlen bleiben ;D sehr schöner Tag
