Great day ran by Nick. Just prepare yourself as it’s a long day in the bus from Hobart. Everyone had a say when it came to stop off selection and duration or stops . All ran really smoothly and the tour guide did his best to ensure every person was tended to throughout the day for that personal feel in a group tour

Our day trip with Alex and a few others was one of the highlights of our trip to Tassie! We were picked up on time and given a detailed, fun and memorable trip with a lot of spots on the way and local information which only someone as experienced, caring and understanding as Alex would provide. Weather wasn't the best but Alex moved a few pieces here and there to ensure we made best use of our time and overall made it a memorable and well spent day!

Wineglass Bay was a really wonderful tour. It is a MUST in Tasmania. Beautiful landscapes, enjoyable moments with the wildlife (feeding wallabies, ducks) Tracks are easy and really worth. Alex was really nice to us and helpful to everybody so that we enjoy the tour. He gave us interesting information about the tour or Tasmania in general. Really worth!
