Great tour
Was a lot of fun riding on the puffing Billy, visiting the animal sanctuary down in Healesville and finishing off the trip with some delicious ice cream at the chocolate factory, definitely worth it!

Great Experience
I enjoyed the whole tour. Mars (our tour guide) was very friendly and helpful. We all got window seats at the puffing Billy and there was enough time to explore all the animals in the Healesville Sanctuary. I would recommend it for everyone who doesn't have a car and just a few days to explore Melbournes greater area.
