Great way to spend a morning - A few hiccups due to weather, but Fiona gave clear and reasonable explanation. Our driver Tony was knowledgeable, sensitive and entertaining. Tony dropped us off at Cascade Brewery at end of trip, and he's right, the pork cutlet was delicious.

The best service 5 Star! - The staff was amazingly helpful, got lost a bit in Hobart and was running late. But they helped direct where to go and the driver waited us for 5min.. so grateful to be able to go to the summit while the road was closed.. Driver was hilarious, entertained us all the way.. Would come back again!

Great tour! - Great tour and commentary from Tony the tour guide extraordinaire. The views were amazing. Would totally recommend to anyone wanting a tour that only takes up a couple of hours and gives you a great view, great experience and with plenty of knowledge and history given by the guide.

The tour guide Greg was... - The tour guide Greg was absolutely awesome! Very chill guy who knew a lot about the local knowledge, and stopped the bus at a little storage container café half way up the mountain for the best hot chocolate in Tasmania
