We had a really amazing... - We had a really amazing time on this trip, it was so fun to see all the iconic Australian animals at the Moonlit Sanctuary where we got to pet Koalas. The peninsula hot springs area was very relaxing, it's basically a whole amusement park with many different baths, saunas and steam rooms etc. Highly recommend!

Great wildlife and relaxation experience! - We had a fantastic time on this trip with two great guides, Kevin and Gary. Kevin picked us up and proceeded to drive us out the eastern peninsula of Melbourne to Moonlit Sanctuary. Along the way he gave us great information about Australian life, culture and sports, especially Australian Rules Football, his passion. At the Sanctuary, he led us around pointing out the various opportunities to interact with the wildlife. He also provided us with grain to feed the kangaroos and wallabies. The sanctuary was outstanding. My wife and I had had encounters with local wildlife at two previous tours in New Zealand and Tasmania, but this was by far the best: so many kangaroos, wallabies, birds, dingoes, and koalas. The Moonlit Sanctuary and Kevin’s directions made for an amazing visit. Gary then picked us up and took us to Peninsula Hot Springs. My wife and I expected, hot springs like we had experienced in Iceland and Japan and were surprised that this was a resort style spa. After adjusting our expectations, we relaxed and enjoyed the great amenities at the spa. All we needed to bring was our bathing suits, they provided bathrobes and towels. Gary stayed with us, and we had great conversations about Australian culture and activities. Bonnie, my wife is an anthropologist, and we thoroughly enjoyed our conversations with Gary. Be prepared for long drive times to get out the peninsula to both places. We loved our exploration and encounters with the Australian wildlife and were happy to be able to relax and soak on our last full day in Australia. We highly recommend this Oceania Tours & Safaris experience.
