We enjoyed a fantastic, entertaining trip up to Mount Wellington with our tour guide, Hugo. Despite the weather being less than favourable and hindering the fabulous views we were expecting, Hugo ensured that we received value for our money and gave us a couple of additional options to drive past and enjoy. Thoroughly enjoyed the entire trip.

Cplin our driver was excellent, friendly, knowledgeable, informative and humorous> The views from Mount Wellington are stunning. One disappointment is that we only drove past the 'Womens Factory' but didn't visit which I would have liked to have done. All in all highly recommend

Evan (rhymes with Heaven) drove our bus to Mt. Wellington, Richmond, and several other sites. He was funny, knowledgeable, and nice. We stopped for hot chocolate at a little eatery and went to an overlook, we thoroughly enjoyed Richmond, and would book this tour again in a heartbeat!

We did this experience with a group of Intellectually Disabled adults, and we couldn't believe it when we saw snow on Mt.Wellington. Many of them had never seen snow, which was very exciting. It was only a half day tour, so we saw a few of the Hobart sights, but it left our afternoon free, and we had time to go to Mawson's Hut.

We were in a small group of 13, tour left on time, driver very friendly and very knowledgeable. He gave us plenty of time at each stop and options to stay on the bus if the walking was too much for some

The view was amazing but the Driver was not friendly at all and we could not hear anything he was saying at the back.
Would do the tour again but not with the same driver
