So much fun. This was our first day in Australia and what a treat to see these penguins up close and personal.
Exciting afternoon tour. We were in the exhibit and up close with the Penguins. Highly recommend.
This tour was simply amazing!!! If you have even the slightest interest in animals, you need to do this! You can't touch them, but the penguins are only a few cm's away from you.
