MONA was awful and not worth it

The driver for the tour was absolutely excellent, funny - interesting - what brings the rating down is the awful MONA museum. Don’t waste your time or money - they want you to go up about 6 flights of stairs then go down about 6 flights of stairs and start at the bottom of the museum for average people - boat rode was nice. the museum was poorly put together seemed dark and evil to us / In my opinion - not worth it the money

A Real Hobart Day

This is a great day . The tour of the town in the morning is not all about the obvious - it’s the little special things that only local drivers know . And as for MONA- a terrific wow experience

A ‘must do tour’.

The tour far exceeded our expectations. As the guide was very knowledgeable we learnt a lot about Hobart.
