Great walking tour Hobart - The walking g tour was great, our guide Lisa had lots of interesting stories, not only did we learn about history of Hobart, but also how State Gov is preserving their heritage buildings. Old and new history. Worth the money, would recommend the tour.

2hr private walking tour - We booked a private tour as there were no scheduled tours on the only day we had spare. 2hrs was the perfect length to get a nice overview of some of Hobart's history. Lisa delivered awesome content and knew all the answers to any random questions we fired at her. I would recommend.
