A Great Day in Tasmania!
A superb first day in Tasmania experience. Everything went like clockwork, from pick up to drop off! Alex is a fabulous tour guide, providing history, fun insights and excellent recommendations throughout the day. Wineglass Bay is beautiful and worth the excursion! We had a lot of fun hiking to the lookout points. Definitely recommend sturdy walking shoes. We enjoyed our other stops along the way - breakfast cafe, lovely winery for lunch and a stop in Richmond Village for the most divine ice cream and sweets!
Scenic Drive to the National Park
The tour van left CBD Hobart around 6:30am. Althougn there is a long van ride until we get to the national park, there are a lot to see beautiful views on the way. Thanksfully, the weather was very clear and sunny when I join this tour. The view from a lookout was perfect. Information from a tour guide helped us enjoy this excursion even more.
Good tour guide
I recommend this tour since the tour guide is informative with the places that we will visit and he is friendly guy, you will be feel comfortable during the tour. Don't ask me the destinations, they are breathtaking!!!! Don't think to much, book this tour and I hope you get your experience like mine, perfecto~
Superior
We had a superb day with a small group,driven and guided by Alex. His knowledge and on road commentary was fantastic. He looked our group, especially my wife who experienced very slight personal difficult at a small stage and made sure of her and our comfort. I highly recommend this particular tour and Alex as a driver/guide and would do it again in the near future if it arises. Thanks very much. Geoff and Jenny
Great Experience with Alex and his tour!
Tour is very well organised, you get to see so many places in one day which is something that one maybe couldn't do without this type of activity. Alex is very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating, with plenty of (fun) stories and information about Tasmania history in general. Uphill walk to Wineglass Bay lookout is worth it, can be tiring as some parts are pretty steep, however there are plenty of spots to stop and rest and you can walk at your own pace. Great lunch and wonderful view at Devil's corner, nice stop at Kate's Berry Farm for icecream, coffee and indulge in home made products. Overall, great experience and definitely recommend Alex and his tour!
