    Dear Douglas, Thanks for sharing your feedback. We're disappointed that you're disappointed, and wish to apologise for the inconvenience of the bus breakdown. While rare, we do understand that this would disrupt your tour and we worked very hard to get the replacement vehicle to you as quickly as possible. Thanks for also letting us know about your experience with our guide. What you experienced with Wombat is the standard that we expect from all guides (and normally that is what we consistently deliver). It's essential for us to know if something does not meet an expectation, so we value this review as an opportunity to address them. We wish you all the best for your onward travels.

    Great trip to see a lot of Tassie! Tempo is not too high with lots of time to spend in several places. Only downside for me is the lack of group bonding. Bein…

    Thanks for sharing those comments. We're sorry this was your experience, Lieve. Although close by, motel guests do stay separately from the multishare/hostel accommodations and our guides generally facilitiate some group dinners together in town at night. We've noted your feedback and will look into it.

  • Who will I meet on tour?

    Our tours are diverse in ages and nationalities. We are a great option for solo travellers, couples, and groups who are excited to explore Tasmania. Our age range is 8-80 years old.
  • What are the buses like, and is the maximum group size?

    Our maximum group size is 24 guests plus the tour guide (except for the Discovery 6 and Ultimate 10 which have a maximum of 18 guests). Our tours are conducted in modern, comfortable air-conditioned buses such as Toyota Coasters or Mitsubishi Rosas.
  • What are the walks like and how fit do you need to be?

    These active tours feature daily walks from easy to moderate difficulty. All are optional, but moderate fitness and good mobility help maximise the experience. i.e. Easy walk: Russell Falls (Mount Field National Park) – 1.4 km return (25 min), flat with no steps. Moderate walk: Dove Lake Circuit (Cradle Mountain National Park) – 6 km loop (2–3 hrs) with some steep hills, steps, and rough terrain, offering stunning views.
  • What to bring?

    In general, bring clothing that suits the season, including warm clothes (it can get cold in the mountains), comfortable closed-toe walking shoes, toiletries, a towel, hat, sunscreen, waterproof jacket, swimsuit, and 1-2 litre refillable water bottle. To travel more sustainably, please bring a keep-cup (for coffees) and a reusable shopping bag.
  • Are meals included?

    Some tours are self-catering. This means guests can purchase their own meals according to their preferences and budget. We provide regular opportunities to shop at supermarkets and to enjoy the local cafes and restaurants according to your meal preferences. Hostel guests can prepare their own meals should they prefer this option.

    The Ultimate 10 and Discovery 6 tours include several meals as part of each tour.
  • Do you pick up guests at the start of tour?

    Yes. We pick up guests from selected locations in Hobart’s CBD. Please advise us of your pick-up location no later than 72 hours prior to your tour’s departure. You can view a list of our pick-up locations and times here.
  • Can we depart Tasmania the day our tour finishes? Can we be dropped off at the Hobart airport?

    We can arrange an airport drop off on the final day of your tour, however we strongly recommend booking a flight for 7.30pm or later. For all other guests you will be dropped into the city centre.
  • What accommodations can I choose?

    Some of our tours offer both motel and hostel accommodations, others are motel-only.
    • Motel Single, Double, or Twin: Private room with ensuite bathroom.
    • Hostel Dormitory: Single-gender rooms (4–8 beds) with shared bathrooms. Private hostel rooms (Single, Double, or Twin) are also available with shared bathrooms.
    Note: Solo travelers must book a single room (hostel or motel), as twin/double rooms are not shared.

    If you're unsure which option suits you, check out our blog or contact us for assistance.
