Seriously, Bruny Island is my new happy place. Went solo (my travel buddies bailed last min lol) and didn’t regret one second. Cheese tasting first thing—YUM. Our guide, Tom, was chill and knew so much random stuff (like how the honey is made on the island? Wild). Lunch was proper Tasmanian, not just touristy. Got a bit muddy doing the rainforest walk but honestly, just adds to the adventure. The lookout at The Neck is EPIC (hold onto your hat, windy as anything up there). Oh, and you can’t snap pics inside the Bligh Museum but it’s worth a peek. Only downside: the bus was a bit cramped, so maybe don’t wear your bulkiest jacket! Def recommend for anyone who likes food + nature.Yara

Did the tour w/ my partner and 2 kids (11 & 8). The cheese stop was the winner for all of us, even the picky eater. Guide Simon kept the facts coming (some dad jokes too haha). Oysters were fresh but not my thing, hubby ate mine too. Rainy morning meant foggy views at the lookout, but still super pretty. Bus was a bit late picking us up but they made up for it with extra chocolate samples. Would go again maybe in summer for better weather.

So...mixed bag! Did the Bruny trip with a group of friends and while the food stops were LEGIT, the pacing felt off. We felt a bit rushed at the honey shop, barely time to pick something. The Neck viewpoint is next-level, but it was sooo crowded by midday. Lunch was tasty, staff v. friendly. Guide was nice but a little hard to hear at the back of the bus. Bring a raincoat! Our shoes got soaked on the short bushwalk.

Bruny Island tour = food coma in the best way. Can’t believe how much cheese, seafood, and fudge we tasted in one day. I went with my girlfriend and we both loved the chill vibe, nobody rushed us at the stops. Staff were super relaxed. The bushwalk was a bit muddy but worth it for all the birds we spotted (bring proper shoes!). Shoutout to our driver Paul for all the corny jokes. Would book again.

Came with my mum for her birthday—she’s obsessed with cheese and was basically in heaven at the first stop. I liked the honey ice cream best tbh. The weather was COLD but clear, so we got gorgeous photos from the Neck. Some bits felt a little touristy but still fun. Guide was informative, maybe talked a bit too much about local politics for my taste. Glad we did it!
