Excellent history of a beautiful part of Hobart. Lisa did an excellent job, she knew her history and made the whole experience interesting and fun. Highly recommend

Lisa was knowledgeable and engaging. This walking tour was excellent because she spoke about lots of hidden gems that we would never have known about by simply googling or reading a travel guide. We really loved it! Thankyou!

A very informative walk around Battery point. Well worth doing. Not too strenuous so any one with a minimum level of fitness can do it

Lisa is fabulous, her knowledge of Hobart & its history is beyond words. She spoke so well about everything, answered all questions with knowledge & humour. We’ve done tours all over the world & she is up there with the best. At all times we could hear her over traffic, always explained fully. We are so happy we did the Hobart central tour the day before & Battery Pt the next day with Lisa as it gave us an excellent overview & set up the rest of our time in Hobart.
