San is an amazing tour guide, he is the owner of Derwent Experience. He's very accommodating and he took us on a very long journey to Cradle Mountain. Lunch and dinner in the chosen restaurants were superb, and he made sure we were all comfy and okay for the long journey. The tour started at 6am and we were dropped off back at Hobart at around 9pm. Cradle Mountain is very far from Hobart and Sam is the only tour provider that runs the day trip to Cradle Mountain, which saved my entire trip to Tasmania. Cradle Mountain is amazing, you wouldn't want to think twice about visiting this place. It is a must visit place if you are in Tasmania. We had about 10 or 11 people in the group and I was the only one that did the hiking up to the Marion Lookout. The view is breathtaking and wouldn't waste all of your effort at all. There was light showers and very windy as I hiked up, but saw rainbows appreared a few times up there. On my way down, I saw 3 wombats. If you have any breathing or walking difficulties, you could do a full circuit trekking of Dove Lake instead of going up. All the best Sam and thanks so much again for looking after us. It was my best daytrip in Tasmania!

The ride from Hobart to Cradle Mountain is a bit long but our tour guide, Sam, arranged everything nicely and made the trip an enjoyable one. Sam is friendly and knowledgeable. Cradle mountain and the lakes there are beautiful. The views from Marion Lookout is stunning and the hiking experience is refreshing. One of the best tours in Tasmania.c

I was the only one in our party keen to go to Marion Lookout. Was so pleased I did! I am a quite fit female (in my forties) & made the 3.5km hike from Dove Lake (via boat house &wombat pool-30mins/1.7km) to lookout in total 1hr 8mins (incl plenty of photo stops). 1hr 15mins (3.5km) to come down to Ronny Ck carpark (again incl plenty of photo stops & wombat watching). Need a good level of fitness for this but was so pleased guide Sam gave me the encouragement I needed to head on this solo quest. Sam is a good Aussie bloke, and although was a huge day, he made the trip very relaxed. He is the only operator from Hobart to Cradle mountain, so I was pleased to get this opportunity to explore some of this national park on my short time frame

Sam is an awesome tour guide & we thank him for such a brilliant day. His outstanding knowledge of the environment & history makes the experience more complete. It’s a huge day from pick up to drop off but so worth it. We were very fortunate to have a beautiful clear warm sunny day & we made the most of it by doing the climb to Marion's Lookout. We'd highly recommend this to anyone who’s up for the challenge!

I was a solo traveler who didn’t rent a car so I had been feeling a bit shame that I couldn’t do much things except for the commonly known tours in Hobart like Brudny Island tour and Bonorong Sanctuary visiting. This tour is just perfect for me, who had short holidays but I could go as far as I can go without renting a car and enjoy trekking and making a unique experience. The weather was not perfect for hiking but it wasn’t rainy all the time. I could see some blue sky sometimes and see rainbows. I was just happy to see Wombats near Cronny Creek😊 I didn’t know that I could see Wombats there so it was a good surpsing for me. And the guide, Sam, was very nice and very informative. I got good, positive vibes from him, in spite of long distance driving, so thankful that he organized this tour.

Sam and Garry are very friendly, knowledgeable, and well organised. A bit unfortunate that we couldn't see the mountain due to weather condition, but it was a good and unique experience to walk around the dove lake and we saw wild wombat closely. The journey was long but smooth. Not ideal when the tour was full, and needed another car, fitting three people at the back seats.

Philip_N

Great trip! Well planned out day with good midway stops. Highly recommend...let Sam do the driving while you enjoy a comfortable ride through the countryside and a nice hike at Cradle Mountain!

Tina_M

Sam was an amazing tour guide - very knowledgeable and an all round nice bloke. The tour is spectacular!!!

Sam was impeccable at ensuring every aspect of our day was wonderful. He chose great food stops and was very patient. I loved his thorough knowledge of Tasmania. Faultless.

Karina_K

I did 4 organized tours with various agents in Tasmania, but this one is the most memorable one. This is the only tour to Craddle Mountain from Hobart, but I cannot imagine it could go any better. Very well organized. There is a long drive involved as Craddle Mountain is far from Hobart, but there are multiple stops on the way with beautiful sights, so the journey is not tiring or boring. The hike to Marions Lookout is breath-taking, and so are the views from the top. Sam, the guide, is super nice and very knowledgable. I was also lucky to meet great people on this 15 hours journey. Highly recommended!
