6-Day Tasmanian Discovery Tour

My wife and I flew from Texas to Tasmania for the first time during the last half of March 2026. We are so happy Hadyn Chilcott was available to guide us (and 12 other adults) around the island on the 6 Day Comfort Tour. Being a native of Tasmania who has led many tours, Hadyn’s knowledge of the plants, animals and history of the island kept us entertained the entire time. We highly recommend Hadyn and Under Down Under if you want to see the beauty of the island without the worries of driving on narrow, winding mountain roads, in the rain while dodging suicidal wildlife. We visited so many sites and ‘only’ took about 1000 photos. If the weather is warm, you’ll have multiple opportunities to swim in fresh and saltwater. Bring comfortable hiking shoes as there are a fair number of trails to walk up, but the views are worth it. The weather was almost perfect during our trip with only a small amount of drizzle and mostly sunny or partly cloudy skies. At Unzoo, birds and kangaroos were eating out of our hands while we pet them. The Gordon River cruise to see Sarah Island was an eye-opener to the harsh history of Tasmania. On the final night, Hadyn took out his guitar and sang a few songs after our dinner overlooking the Tasman Sea. The entire experience was certainly “An Adventure to remember” and we checked off most of the bucket-list items we had for Tasmania at a reasonable price for the experience we had. Thanks again, Hadyn!

As we are from the UK we have done group tours in Italy, Spain and Portugal and seen some wonderful things but our Tasmania tour eclipsed them all. We did the Tasmanian Discovery Comfort Tour which took us all around the island into several reserves and National Parks with beautiful mountainous and coastal scenery. Our wonderful tour guide Hadyn had an encyclopaedic knowledge of the islands fauna and flora but also entertained us with humorous anecdotes of his varied career and escapes. This is a tour not to be missed.

Early starts. Plenty of walking with steps. Plenty of driving but with multiple loo stops. The minibus is somewhat limited in leg room especially for longer drives. Accommodation and food very good. A very comprehensive tour and very worthwhile. Tour guide Hadyn was excellent- great knowledge of the area, careful driver, superb guitar player and went out of his way to assist when required. Thanks mate and good on yer for your upcoming travels 👍 ( don’t forget the brake fluid 😜)

100% recommendation from our terrific guide Keygan as well as the tour planning and accommodation. Amazing!

We had a fantastic six days experience travelling around Tasmania and seeing the wonderful sites. Our guide, Hyden, was informative, knowledgeable and supportive throughout the trip which added tremendously to our enjoyment. We have no hesitation in recommending the trip which exceeded our expectations.
