Cplin our driver was excellent, friendly, knowledgeable, informative and humorous> The views from Mount Wellington are stunning. One disappointment is that we only drove past the 'Womens Factory' but didn't visit which I would have liked to have done. All in all highly recommend

Instructions on where to pick up coach from port terminal were very good. Colin the bus driver and commentator was brilliant. Views from the mountain were stunning and worth the visit

Evan (rhymes with Heaven) drove our bus to Mt. Wellington, Richmond, and several other sites. He was funny, knowledgeable, and nice. We stopped for hot chocolate at a little eatery and went to an overlook, we thoroughly enjoyed Richmond, and would book this tour again in a heartbeat!

We had a fantastic trip. Darrell the bus driver/ tour guide was excellent. The views from the top are breathtaking & ell worth the money.

We did this experience with a group of Intellectually Disabled adults, and we couldn't believe it when we saw snow on Mt.Wellington. Many of them had never seen snow, which was very exciting. It was only a half day tour, so we saw a few of the Hobart sights, but it left our afternoon free, and we had time to go to Mawson's Hut.

We were in a small group of 13, tour left on time, driver very friendly and very knowledgeable. He gave us plenty of time at each stop and options to stay on the bus if the walking was too much for some

Nikolina_A

The view was amazing but the Driver was not friendly at all and we could not hear anything he was saying at the back. Would do the tour again but not with the same driver

Eden_P

Mark was great. He took care to stop at a few extra lookouts in case the visibility wasn't great, but we lucked out! Perfect if you have a short time in hobart
