Friendly and comfortable - Great tour! I went straight out to Bonorong wildlife sanctuary and back, but learned so much about Hobart and its surroundings. Matt is a wonderful tour guide, and bus driver Tony added to the experience.

Absolutely fantastic experience - When we arrived at Hobart Port, most of the touring tickets had already been sold out. Fortunately, we managed to purchase the last three tickets for the Hobart Attraction Bus Tour. The tour was informative, relaxed, and rewarding. At the end of the tour, we were offered a follow-up trip to Richmond at a great price. Our guide walked us to the historic bridge, and we had free time to explore the charming village. Once again, the experience was fantastic. I highly recommend it!

Group of 8, enjoyed this interactive tour. - We had 5 young kids & 3 adults, in which the time frame was perfect to keep their attention. Such a great way to see Hobart, in a comfortable coach bus. Matt, our guide was informative & knew the area personally. The costumes & voices sound overs was a fun touch too. Amazing views of a lovely city.

Great tour - very informative. - This tour was a very informative history lesson about the beginnings of Tasmania (Van Diemans Land). I was travelling with my two youngest grandchildren aged 7 & 9 and my nine year old grandaughter could certainly empathise with the youngest convict ever sent to the colonies, a thirteen year old girl. Our driver, David, was very accommodating, and made our time interesting. The children certainly enjoyed the tour, especially the free chocolate lol, and it was a great couple of hours away from the ship and a different, alternative experience for them.

5h burnie tour - Only downside have a real stop beer and food but otherwise super enthusiastic! For non-English speakers plan to understand barely 10% of the maximum guide it has an incredibly hard accent to hear really not understandable Excellent tour I recommend!
