Traveler Reviews

It's difficult to highlight any single part of the trip, every aspect was special in its own way. From the museum to the walks, the marvellous food experiences, the visit to the two trees, even the ride across was interesting. even the

Thoroughly enjoyed this tour. David was our tour guide and was excellent, great commentary, good driver, very personable, easy to understand, full of knowledge, gave us the day itinerary at start and during the day so we knew where we were going all the time, and made it a fun day out. The stops we went too were really good, loved the cheese and honey tastings and the fudge and chocolate shop too. Lunch was really nice and substantial. Although I dont eat oysters, the other people at my table thoroughly enjoyed mine :) Stopping at the Isthmus and climbing up to the lookout for spectacular views was a highlight, and huge thanks to the the chocolate people for allowing us to wander through their private garden. I would thoroughly recommend this tour and would do it again if in the Hobart area.

This was one of the best tours we've ever been on - and we've been on a few - made all the better by our amiable guide Hugh. It helps to have a guide who is engaging, funny, flexible, knowledgeable, and tuned in to the crowd, which Hugh certainly was. A lovely way to experience Bruny Island, even in the wet conditions when we visited. The food was delicious, particularly the included lunch, and there was plenty of time to enjoy everything, no rushing. We only briefly went into the rain-forest as it was very wet and wouldn't have been pleasant to stay too long. As it was I managed to pick up a hitchhiker in the form of a small leech, quickly dispatched! We had a fantastic time on this tour and highly recommend it.

When visiting Hobart this day tour is a must as it's a great way to indulge in the best Bruny has to offer. The food tastings were fabulous, the oysters amazing and lunch very good. Andrew our guide was such a pleasure to spend the day with - fun and attentive and really knows his stuff.

David was a ball of knowledge on every question asked. Cheese tasting was sensational. Lunch was great in a beautiful setting. Fudge and honey tasting were good as well.
