So much fun - This tour is amazing. Lots to see including seals and whales. The staff really know their stuff. Ben and Jordy made it heaps of fun. Ben handled that boat like an absolute pro - I felt completely safe! Phillip, our bus driver was very knowledgeable and heaps of fun. It felt like we knew each other for years.

Amazing Tasman island cruise - Amazing tours I have to say, the nature's wonders with the beautiful views of the sea and land. A must-not-missed tour. This is paired with professional tour guides that give live commentary and showed schools or dolphins swimming around the sea. Also, they are professional in handing a person with motion sickness like me too. Thumbs up 👍 and definitely a recommended tour.

Spectacular! - The view of the vertical dolerite cliffs was amazing. The natural beauty of creation! Saw the Australian and New Zealand seals and had dolphins swimming around our boat, that was a great bonus to this wonderful trip!

Exciting day full of adventure ! - Excellent tour. The boat along the coast was really exciting. They showed us many animals along the way. We saw a whale, many birds, seals … it was lovely. Our driver John was really nice and funny. Afterwards John took us to Port Arthur. The grounds are beautiful with lots of history. Thank you guys. You made our trip to Tassie a memorable one. Cheers

Highly recommend visiting this part of the world - Our driver was exceptional and couldn't be more accommodating. Loved the boat ride, although the two young guys weren't as professional. (eg, saying that they laugh when people throw up on the boat, spent time to try and retrieve a cuttle fish for a budgie when people were more interested in the seals, giving too much information about rock climbing [which seemed to be the thing that interested the person more than his job]. They could learn alot from the older guide on how to interact with people and not assuming that people on the trip haven't been on boats before. The scenery was stunning, and the staff at the office were very pleasant. Would recommend a tour to others and hopefully they can see some of the wonders that Tassie has to offer. At the end our driver took us for a walk to the Remarkable cave to fill in the spare time and really took care of us. Great job

Good but disappointing - The staff we encountered, Phil our bus driver, Kane the Captain and Damo his deck head were all brilliant. Unfortunately, we were stuck in the back seat. Your view is obstructed and these should be sold at a discount or not at all. Yes, you can stand up but you’re made to wear a ridiculously long spray jacket which makes it difficult to move.
