Be Part Of The Penguin Parade

Penguins? In Australia? Yes, we were just as confused! Who else thought penguins would only live in Antartica? Melbourne can get pretty cold in the winter months, but we still presumed penguins would be in the snow somewhere. But its true, you can book onto a Philip Island Penguin Parade tour in your Pelikin app now.

Let the fantastic tour guides pick you up and take you over to Philip Island, where you will watch the tiny penguins scurry into their burrows as the sun begins to set. No need to go to the zoo, learn all about these cute creatures as you watch them in their natural habitat.

Cuddle a Koala in Kuranda

Australia’s iconic fluffy teddy bear love to cuddle, and if you book onto a Kuranda Nature tour in your Pelikin App, then soon, they could be cuddling you. Everyone loves Koalas, which is why it makes us so sad that they are becoming extinct. At the Kuranda Nature Reserve in Cairns they help protect the Koalas and get the funding by allowing people like yourself to take a trip and have a cuddle.

At the Kuranda Nature Reserve you’ll also be able to hand feed kangaroo’s and walk through the butterfly sanctuary, a true wholesome nature experience.

White sand beaches, shallow waters and most importantly the Quokka’s! You can book a shuttle bus / boat from Perth to Rottnest island in Pelikin Experiences on your Pelikin App.
