Great tour

Carl_H, Mar 2024

We had a great time on the tour. Our first time in Hobart an we enjoyed the sights, very clean and well kept area, especially enjoyed the Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary. Our driver/tour guide Mark was very knowledgeable, personable, and interacted well with guests.

A fun day and saw multiple areas of Hobart

Gina_E, Mar 2024

Driver was personable and informative. Bonorong didn’t have as many animals as I’d hoped but I admire the work they do and we were happy we visited.

Could Have Been So Much Better ... Depends On Your Driver

Russell_W, Feb 2020

Our Driver Is A Nice Enough Guy ... Did Appreciate Him Driving, But Didn't Seem To Be All Present. He was Really Really Quiet & When We Asked Questions, He Really Didn't Seem To Know Much .. I appreciate him taking us to MONA & going to Mona was the Best part of our Excursion ! Highly recommend MONA to Anyone Going To Hobart ! :-)

Excellent Tour

David_F, Apr 2019

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The driver was helpful and informative. Seeing and being able to feed the kangaroos and see the wombats, koala bears and Tasmin Devils helped to make our trip to Australia. We would have liked more time at the sanctuary, but appreciate this was only a half day trip. Thanks.
