An excellent trip well worth a visit. - The air walk was very enjoyable. The views were superb. Our guide was very familiar with the area and explained the prominent features of the walk. The caves were spectacular and our guide was well versed with the geology of the caves.

Fascinating and beautiful. - The caves were stunning. I thought it would be more challenging with all the stairs but the guides allow plenty of time stopping in each section so you can catch your breath as they talk about the cave. The guides are friendly and knowledgeable. They are obviously passionate and seem to really enjoy educating people which makes it enjoyable to learn from them. Truly remarkable to see.

Worth the Drive - Well worth the 2-hour drive. The guided tour was very interesting and informative. The guides were lovely and friendly with a good sense of humor, which made the tour even more enjoyable. Plenty of photo opportunities throughout the 30 minute or so tour of the caves.

Not to be missed this was exceptional tour! - Highly recommend this tour it was amazing and I booked after reading the other 5 star reviews. I went with my son who is 20 and he loved it too. Our tour guide Nathan was exceptional. Right from pickup he was amazing. He was very personable, informative and really engaged with the group. He made everyone feel included and I noticed he chatted to everyone. He also is extremely knowledgeable and has a real passion for best hikes and walks in Tasmania and also native trees. He was just as excited as the group when we reached the different locations. The highlights for us were definitely the caves, the air walk and the swinging bridges walk. Just do this tour!!!

Hastings Caves, Tahune and Huon Valley Full Day Tour from Hobart on Aug 09, 2024. - Nathan was our Tour guide and was well versed on the sights we visited. He was also patient when we failed to arrive at our pickup after my wife developed a stomach upset. I contacted the Tour Operator and Nathan returned after collecting the other guests to collect me. Everything went smoothly thereafter, and I enjoyed the tour greatly. Thank you, Nathan.

Beautiful sights and excellent customer service! - Hastings Cave was the highlight of my trip to Tasmania! The cave was so beautiful and the guided tour was very interesting. The airwalk was also a good opportunity to see beautiful trees and learn more about the history and culture of the country. The tour guide was great and very passionate about the country, providing facts along the drive and even stopping to show us specific plants on the forest walk. There were only five of us in total, so it was like getting a private tour! My only constructive comment is that there isn't much time at the thermal springs - I went on a short walk, as there wasn't much time for swimming (also, know that the springs look like a swimming pool!). Also, I left my hat on the tour bus and called the company the next day to see if I could get it back - they found my hat and delivered it to my hostel before I left the country. I highly recommend this tour because of the beautiful sights, but the company itself was also a pleasure to work with!! Enjoy this tour - it is amazing :)

Fabulous Tour - Had an awesome day, beautiful lanscapes, our tour guide Nathan was exceptional. Only 2 others on the tour with us, so it was like having a private tour. Caves were great, cold and the tour guide sang for us, to demonstrate the echo in the caves. Beautuful singing voice! Lots of walking and driving in between but Nathan kept us entertained. Stopped for lunch at Kermandie Hotel in Port Huon, was a nice break. I had the salmon, which was lovely. I was a bit nervous about the Airwalk but we were kept entertained by Nathan chatting to everyone. Thank you for a lovely day, well worth it and will recommend to everyone.
