BESTWith Joy Tour guide Jin (Genie), I took a lot of pictures without regrets. I had fun riding the Puffing Billy steam train for an hour. Every time the villagers passed by, they all waved, so even adults could enjoy it like children. At Maru Koala Park (zoo), the koalas were sleeping, but instead, I fed the kangaroos, took a lot of pictures, and had time to interact with them. At Phillip Island, I saw a lot of penguins on my way home from work. It was so nice to see penguins living in nature, not in a zoo. Since the penguins don't come out until dark, it can be cold while waiting until night. Even in late August when I visited, I recommend wearing a thin padding or at least a windbreaker. As I kept watching dozens of penguins coming in groups, I forgot about the cold and time passed like a dream. Lastly, I saw a wild wallaby on the way to Phillip Island, and unlike other tours, Joy Tour visited a winery in the middle. It was about a 30-minute stop, and I recommend it if you buy one wine. Wine tasting is free when you buy wine. The tasting cost was $15 and was optional, but they didn't force me to do it at all and said I could just look around. When I visited in August, it was winter so the grapes weren't ripe, but I think it would be really nice to go during the Australian summer when the vineyards are open.

Puffing Billy, a steam locomotive over 100 years old
Puffing Billy, the world's best preserved coal-fired steam locomotive. Puffing Billy is a Melbourne landmark that has been running for over 100 years!
Take a train at a speed of about 30 km/h and explore the Dandenong Forest at 700 m above sea level. Enjoy the tranquility of nature and the beautiful sounds of birds in the dense tropical rainforest. The clean air and mountain scent from the dense forest will provide a healing time.
I recommend taking a ride on a steam locomotive that inspired the author of Thomas and Friends, a well-known character among many people, and enjoying the blue natural scenery!
Endless Vineyards, Melbourne Winery
Melbourne is also famous for its wineries, with its endless vineyards.
