Corey was great, very knowledgeable, helpful, patient and friendly. Down to earth and easy to talk to. Tony was also great. Friendly, helpful and patient with wheelchair as it was extremely busy. Every staff member we interacted with was fantastic and provided great service. Tour was informative and learned a lot about Tasmania in a short time. It was extremely busy due to cruise ship docking so availability of buses was limited and therefore had to wait for the next bus as it was full.

A fabulous way to find your bearings and get a history tour at the same time. We've been to Hobart previously but learned and saw a lot we had no knowledge about via the hop on hop off bus tour. Very informative and our driver was knowledgeable and humorous.

Knowledgeable commentary - pre-recorded and from the driver - explaining the history and sights of Hobart. More than enough stops to get off the bus and explore something that spins your own wheels so that you can personalise your own tour.

We had An amazing day on the bus. Our 7 year old picked this is how he wanted to spend his birthday and it turned out so well. The staff are so great and some cracked some really family friendly jokes. Our favourite driver was Tony. I hope that's his name. He was the last driver on 11/11/25. He was so great with the kids and very kid. We hope to do this again.

The driver was very informative. Hobart had the most historical old small and enormous homes, plus buildings. Being able to hop on and off at designated spots was a bonus.
