Wildlife, motorsport history and an evening penguin parade — 90 minutes from Melbourne. We take your group there and back in a chauffeured Sprinter so everyone can enjoy every part of the day.
Phillip Island sits at the entrance to Westernport Bay, connected to the mainland by a causeway. It is known for the Little Penguin colony at Summerland Beach, the Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit, wildlife parks and a coastline that rewards a slow drive. For groups, the island is a self-contained day — enough to fill ten hours without repeating yourself. With a chauffeur, nobody needs to navigate the causeway traffic on the way home.
Our Mercedes Sprinter seats up to 12. For larger groups, we can arrange an Isuzu coach through our trusted partner network.
Pickup from your Melbourne address or hotel. The drive south through Dandenong and the South Gippsland Highway takes about 90 minutes, depending on traffic.
Walk the circuit precinct and visit the museum. For groups with an interest in motorsport, the circuit tour is worth booking in advance. Even without the tour, the pit lane walk is a highlight.
Cowes is the island's main town — waterfront dining, cafés and a pleasant foreshore walk. San Remo, just before the causeway, is known for its fish and chips at the waterfront.
Churchill Island Heritage Farm offers a quieter experience — heritage buildings, farm animals and a pleasant walk. Alternatively, the Phillip Island Wildlife Park (koalas, kangaroos) suits groups with children.
The Penguin Parade begins at dusk — timing changes by month. We adjust departure time to match. Every evening, hundreds of little penguins emerge from the surf and walk up the beach to their burrows. Pre-book your viewing area in advance.
A comfortable evening drive home. Drop-offs to individual addresses if needed.
