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.

A very good decision

We wanted a private tour to take advantage of our short visit to Tasmania and it was a very good decision. Richard was the most fantastic guide, he knew so much history and was just the best company the whole day.
