        Enjoyable tour with a lively tour guide
        We were picked up on time with a bus and taken to the Bruny Island and several places of interest ion the Island. Our guide and driver Peter had planned the tour well and we were able to see all the highlights in time. Peter was knowledgable, humorous and helpful with many suggestions to enjoy the tour. The whole day was highly enjoyable.

        “Fantastic Tour with an Outstanding Guide!”
        Here’s an expanded review based on your request: We had an amazing day, even with my 2.5-year-old toddler in tow! The experience was seamless and enjoyable from start to finish. A big shout-out to our guide, Peter W, who went above and beyond to ensure everyone felt welcome and included. He gave a detailed and informative tour, sharing fascinating insights and fun facts that truly brought the experience to life. I also appreciated Peter’s fantastic sense of humor—it kept everyone engaged and added a wonderful light-hearted touch to the day. He was incredibly patient and accommodating, which made the tour stress-free even with a little one. The itinerary was well-organized, the scenery was breathtaking, and the entire team was professional and friendly. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone, whether you’re traveling solo, with friends, or even with young children. Thank you for a memorable day!

      We had the day in Hobart on a cruise ship and we did this tour .
      Tassie Tours we’re at the port where conveniently we just leave the terminal. As soon as we had enough passengers to join this tour we departed (about 20mins)
      You can also prebook this tour prior to arrival.
      We left in will a group of 12 in a lovely new comfy minivan for 4.5hr tour. Myself and my husband live in North West Tassie so not our first visit to Hobart. But this tour showed areas of Hobart we has not seen before and information from out drive/guide Mark that we didn’t know which made it very enjoyable.
      Richmond is a beautiful town and even though we have visited Richmond before it was lovely to enjoy a Tassie wine and a walk along river .
      It was great to enjoy being driven to the top of Mt Welling and the sky’s were clear and we were able to see all of the Hobart and regions .
      On return to city Mark gave passenger the option to finish at Salamanca are to explore and make their own way back to cruise ship , which is only a short stroll away.
      We encouraged our fellow sailors to do this , myself and husband opted to be dropped off back ship side.
      The was a great day off the ship and seeing a taste of Tassie ( even for locals).
      I can highly recommend this as an option for anyone visiting on a cruise ship at half price of the “ship tours”
      Or if visiting on land to get the comfort plus information you can’t get by driving yourself.

      We had a great day out with Andrew visiting historic Richmond, a city highlights tour and Mount Wellington. Our tour guide was informative and very engaging and adjusted the tour to suit us and the weather conditions especially on Mt Wellington. We made it back to the cruise ship on time. Stress free and great value for a cruise ship tour

      We had a great day out with our tour guide Andrew, who took us to Kunanyi/Mount Wellington and the town of Richmond, as well as the city highlights.
      Andrew was very informative and knowledgeable of the whole area. He’s a great tour guide to have. We would highly recommend booking with Tassie Tours.

      Booked this as a cruise shore tour. Great value when you don't have a lot of shore time. Our tour guide was so knowledge which added to the experience. Bus was clean and in good condition. Mount Wellington did not disappoint and we came back with stunning pictures.

      I was fortunate enough to join this tour with an unusually small group of people. My tour guide, Steve, was fantastic. He explained all sights in detail and shared a lot of his own insights. He even took me to purchase leatherwood honey! Weather was great too that day. Anyway, for this kind of tour, having a great tour guide is the key and I was lucky enough to have Steve!

      My elderly mother, my son and I toured Richmond in Hobart. The quaint antique and nick knack shops were a delight to explore. The town itself was lovely. Simon our driver from Tassie Tours was so lovely. He has fantastic knowledge of all of Hobart. We went on his recommendation on things to do and see. He even took us to a great cheese shop on the way home to taste some local cheeses. Highly recommend Tassie Tours. Make sure you ask for Simon!
