Great fun exploring Tasmania! A lot of driving, a lot of great scenery, and a lot of fun thanks to the tour guide - Had a cracking tour guide, Evan, who gave us a great six day tour around Tasmania exploring scenic panoramas and fascinating wildlife. A warning that this tour is a lot of driving from place to place with not much hiking, but that being said, you do get to explore more of what the island has to offer. Had a really great time and would recommend to anyone looking to explore Tassie with not much time and wanting to cram as much in as possible. Thanks for the great time Evan!

Tasmania 6-Day Tour, you MUST get Justin as tour guide! - We did the Tasmania in 6 Days: the Major Highlights and Attractions tour in March, 2024. This was without a doubt the best tour I have ever been on - due almost entirely to our guide Justin. This tour was not my first "rodeo". He is very personable and worked his butt off to make the trip as easy and enjoyable as possible. If you are looking at a tour in Tas or Australia proper, delay your trip and/or do whatever is necessary to get on a tour with him as guide. If Under Down Under sets a tour through hell and Justin is the guide get on it. I will. Justin's enroute timing with explanations of area history, animals and vegetation was superb. I think he has total recall. He would tell us a story about the area or relate a little history and give us good breaks from such from time to time. His commentary alone was worth the price of the trip. That said, had I rented a car and driven around for 6 days, trying to visit all the cool spots, I would have come away with about 5% of what I received with this tour with Justin. General notes: We opted for a private ensuite room and they were all fine. We had 21 folks in our bus from all over the world. About 11 of the folks opted for hostel accommodation and there were no complaints that I heard. I have never before done an Under Down Under tour and I am not Justin's brother or close friend. Had to add that! The guy just did an amazing job for us! GO HAWKS!

I'm already jealous if you're going - Going to Tasmania at the beginning of my travels was a big mistake. After this tour it can't get any better anymore. This tour is just simply amazing! Had the best time of my life with a sparkly, wonderful and cheerful group of people, our always enthousiastic tour guide Evan and the beautiful landscapes Tasmania has to offer. As a backpacker, I wasn't sure if booking such a tour would be something for me. But since I don't have a driving licence myself and really wanted to explore Tasmania, I gave it a try. And boy, little did I know! Within a couple of days the group becomes your little family. The group was really diverse; couples, solo backpackers and friends. We've got to see a lot of Tasmania; beautiful hikes through nature, the Tasmanian devil, a wonderful play and amazing beaches. Evan, our tour guide, made sure everyone was having a great time. By giving us lots of information, showing us around, giving different options based on different levels of fitness and especially by looking after everyone during our walks by walking and chatting (and joking ;)) with everyone. If I could recommend this tour? 1000% yes!

Amazing adventure, go for it! - I had such an amazing time during this tour. Very outdoorsy and pretty active which is exactly my type of travel! Our guide Evan was probably the best I have so far, funny. Thoughtful and very knowledgeable about Tasmania! I strongly recommend this tour 😉

Professional and clean With excellent communication and commentary. On time and keeping to schedule. - Wineglass Bay. Lovely walk and a quick dip. Wish we could have stayed over night near there. Cozy corner was excellent and 2 nights in St. Helen’s. 6 days was a perfect tasting for Tasmania. Thank you fir keeping us actively engaged with this amazing state.

An exception tour of Tasmania. - The scenery was absolutely amazing. My personal favorites were Wine Glass Bay, Cradle Mountain, and the beach at Bay of Fires but all of the destinations and activities were worthwhile. So many rain forests, water falls, mountains and lake destinations. Our guide and driver Evan was so upbeat and energetic, always ensuring all the group’s travellers were enjoying themselves and finding them activities best suited for their level of fitness. Evan was also an exceptional driver maneuvering the countless mountain roads we traversed with ease.

Taste of Tassie - I had an amazing time on the 6-Day tour of Tasmania. It was a fast paced itinerary which gave me a great taste of everything Tasmania has to offer. Our tour guide Keygan was so professional, friendly and inclusive of everyone on the tour. He really worked hard to make sure that we had a great time. His knowledge of so many different areas and subjects was truly astounding. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is keen to get out into nature, do a few walks/hikes (all very manageable and can cater to different fitness ranges). I think it would have been helpful to have a little more information about to tour prior to starting. The information on the website is essentially all that you receive. This tour has 2 routes (same activities and accomodations) going in clockwise and anti-clockwise rotations. We weren't sure which one we were doing until we got on the bus the first day! Not a major issue or anything that detracted from the overall tour, but just would have been nice to know.

Great trip - We have just come back from the trip and it was fantastic. Tim was a superb guide- nothing was too much trouble and he knew everything! The tour was fairly fast paced which enabled us to see so much in 6 days. I would recommend it to anyone who doesn’t want to lie in bed until 9am!

Great wildlife and beach experiences in a fun group! - I had an amazing week with a lovely group and very fun and knowledgable tourguide Keygan. The places we went to were stunning and I learnt a lot about flora and fauna and history of Tasmania. Keygan was very engaging and i never felt lonely in the group. Even got a little birthday surprise - thanx again! ☺️ For me outstanding were the close encounters with Tasmania's wildlife and the breathtaking beaches! Would totally recommend it!
