The entire experience was absolutely wonderful. It’s honestly difficult to choose just one highlight because every stop was unique and breathtaking. If I had to pick one thing, it would be our tour guide. His knowledge, passion, professionalism, and genuine care for every participant made the day truly exceptional. He made us feel safe, welcomed, and engaged throughout the entire journey. The stunning scenery was unforgettable, but our guide made the experience even more special. I highly recommend this tour!

The scenic side of the tour was great, But the driver was more interested in sharing his opinions and his success in sport expect his golfing prowess. Also the visit to the cheese outlet was cancelled. This was advertised on line for the tour I booked. Whilst the driver did drop me off there he also made a range of ver unprofessional derogatory comments about the business. I would not good one of you tours again. One more thing I was told to be at my pick up point early (7.20am) but ended being picked up last at 7.40am a long time to wait in the cold and get the worst seat in the bus!!!

We had an absolutely fantastic day exploring Bruny Island, and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing driver, Andrew. From start to finish, he was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. Andrew made the journey enjoyable with his great sense of humour and interesting insights about the island’s history, wildlife, and local spots. The food at Bruny Hotel was fantastic, and the oysters at Get Shucked were amazing highlights of the trip. Overall, Andrew made our experience truly memorable, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide and driver.

Our Bruny Island tour was well run with our driver Mark so informative and entertaining. He engaged everyone with interesting facts and stories. Lots of stops at lookouts, beaches and the forest. Lunch at the pub was pre-ordered by QR code to avoid delays and there were short stops at the end of the day to shop for chocolate, honey and fresh oysters.

Such a fantastic tour. The guide made it really special,so engaging and full of great stories. Everything was smooth and well-organised, despite the unpredicted rain and wind, and the places we visited were very beautiful. I especially loved the little local insights you wouldn’t find on your own. Overall, just a really enjoyable, relaxed experience.
