Trip date: April 2024- RMRichard· April 13th, 2024I enjoyed the tour although I was compromised by pre-existing health issues which prevented me from undertaking the most challenging walks. The tour leader always ensured I had an alternative plan so that I enjoyed each day. A minor criticism - I found the bus uncomfortable - too little leg-room and no shelf to store our back-packs (but that might be my age and particular circumstances).Show more
Intrepid Travel commented on this reviewHi Richard! Thank you for your review! I'm glad to hear that you were able to enjoy your trip with us! We appreciate your feedback and will pass it along to our team! All the best, Intrepid Travel :)Trip date: April 2024 - DTDonald· February 6th, 2024Tasmania was awesome but the Tour was not, the van was old and very cramped, driver played music so loud no one could talk, except of course when he was talking, each morning we had to pick up our food for the entire day from a local pastry shop, only had one actual lunch break during the whole tour, we were advised that the van was on a GPS system and there would be no deviation from a very strict schedule, during a majority of the tour stops, the driver spent most of his time doing paperwork or sleeping, except, of course, when he went swimming I have waited some time to submit this Review because I wanted to reflect on this experience and I had also scheduled another short Tour with this company which has now been completed. There is much more that could be written and I would be happy to discuss my concerns if anyone is really interested, but the bottom line is, I will never tour with this company againShow moreIntrepid Travel commented on this reviewHello Donald – Thank you for talking the time to post your review.

- ASylvia A.· July 26th, 2023I booked the Highlight of Tasmania, because the dates of the trip were convenient to my programm. I will never regret it! What an amazing place if someone likes nature, forest, sea, small villages, nice towns etc. I cannot describe the beuty of the Bay of Fire and Cradle Mountains, the visit to a local winery and Hobart city. I suggest to spend at least one day extra to explore Hobart city. Our group was an amazing multinational group and our tour guide was the ideal leader for this trip. Do not miss Tasmania!!!Show moreIntrepid Travel commented on this reviewThank you so much for posting this wonderful review.

Asked on May 22nd, 2023Is Intrepid Travel's 6 day Highlights of Tasmania tour fit for a senior citizen in reasonable health with past hiking experience? Are the participants mostly young adults? Do hotels/motels come with private bathroom facilities? And their ratings please. Does a single traveler pay additional fees over the tour price shown on your site? What other fees are required to be paid in addition to food prices?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written May 2023
- Regarding the physical rating for this tour, 2 out of 5 = Some easy physical activities included in your trip. No physical preparation is required to make the most of the journey. - on the mentioned departure we currently hold 2 spots for the clients age who are 70+. - As per the starting and ending point hotels, the rating is 4 star hotel. we will need to check if the bathroom facilities are included. - If you wish to have your own room throughout the trip then you will need to pay an additional amount. all our accommodation are on twin shar basis. if you are okay in sharing rooms you wont be needed to pay an additional amount. - When it comes to spending money on the trip, every traveller is a little different. You know your spending habits better than we do, so please budget an appropriate amount for things like optional meals, drinks, shopping, optional activities, and laundry.
