A fabulous Tassie road trip

Thank you for arranging the itinerary for us. We enjoyed it immensely, feeling, in the end, it really was a taster for many more trips in the future. The devil experience was a real highlight … our son really enjoyed it … as was lunch at Bangor vineyard and the Marakoopa cave tour! And of course amazing food, wine and gin along the way.

Excellent, and great value

This tour was excellent. We liked the idea of a small group tour and it was great value. John is an exceptional guide. His knowledge and enthusiasm for sharing, is outstanding. We were always well looked after, had any questions answered and enjoyed chatting with John. Our vehicle was always clean and ready to go and we always knew what our agenda was going to be.

One of the best guides we have ever had

We loved our time in Tasmania. Our guide Richard was one of the best guides we have ever had – extremely knowledgeable and a pleasure to be with.

Very knowledgeable, friendly

Horacio was very knowledgeable, friendly and eager to share with us the history of Hobart and Tasmania. We enjoyed his company very much. He was an avid story teller and very personable. We felt extremely comfortable in his hands and hope to see him again on our return some day.
