Spectacular Experience - Perfect weather so views were spectacular. Driver commentary was so informative. Sitting in front row afforded a little excitement because I was sitting on the left in the "drivers" seat with no steering wheel. Enjoyable way to see Tasmania.

amazing panoramic views - Mount Wellington offers one of the best vantage points to view Hobart from the top, providing amazing panoramic views of the city and its surroundings. During a 2.5-hour tour with Red Decker, our knowledgeable bus captain guided us with great expertise and shared valuable insights about the area. The captain was not only helpful in answering queries but also provided useful tips and historical context that enriched our experience. One particularly memorable aspect was when the captain showcased photos of Mt Wellington covered in snow, offering a glimpse into the magic of the mountain during such occurrences. The tour with Red Decker was indeed amazing and left us with a deeper appreciation for Hobart's beauty and history. Thank you Red Decker team for this amazing tour.

Mt Wellington tour from Hobart - Amazing views. Our driver Greg was very knowledgeable. Very enjoyable trip. We took the 12.30 excursion, which was good, as earlier in the morning, it was very cloudy.

Views and hiking! - Really great way to explore the mountain as you can jump on and off. I took the bus to the top and hiked down a couple of sections. Drivers were very friendly, helpful and commentary was interesting. Book ahead - it sells out quickly!
