5.00The two days were packed with activities from 7am to 6pm - offering many windows to Tasmania’s natural and historic faces. My daughter and myself thoroughly enjoyed the trip. The tour guide planned the trip wonderfully so that we can have early access to the most stunning views of the Cradle mountain.
Highly recommended!

5.00My wife and I had a wonderful time with Trent! He is a very experienced guide who takes you to all the right places, accompanies the tour with a very interesting commentary, and kindly answers any questions you might have. Last but not least, he's a super friendly guy. Highly recommended!
Fantastic Experience with Wild Tasmania Tours!

5.00Trent has shown my family and I the true beauty and wild side of Tasmania over just a course of 2 days! We were lucky enough to even catch a glimpse of a wild platypus! He is extremely knowledgable and professional in his job and I would highly recommend anyone considering to visit Tasmania to go with Wild Tasmania Tours for an unforgettable experience. :)
Great taste of wild Tasmania!

5.00Trent does a beautiful job planning a wonderful tour and communicating and educating along the way, so that you come away with a great experience and an understanding of local vegetation, wildlife, a bit of history and culture. There were a good number of stops along the way to stretch legs and see some local towns and catch a platypus siting ( we were so lucky!). Loved the walks and the chance to see wombats and other creatures in the wild.
Well organized yet flexible

5.00Everything from booking until drop off was perfect. Trent provided us an overview each day and enough information BEFORE each stop. This gave us ample time to prepare what clothes to wear and items to bring. Like a good teacher, he gave a summary of the activities we had on this wonderful 2-day experience of a lifetime.

5.00First, typically I rent a car and create my own 'tour'. I am so grateful I spontaneously elected to book the 2 Day Cradle Mountain Tour with Trent. He has put together a truly amazing experience for all of us. He entertained us with tons of local history and informative narratives of what we were seeing on the driving parts of the day. And walking/hiking through the rain forests under giant ferns to spectacular waterfalls was amazing! Our night accommodations were very comfortable with a unique history of their own. I was wondering about the early starts to our days - spot on as Trent made sure we arrived before other large tours and had Cradle Mountain Park to ourselves. Breathtaking somewhat arduous hike to Marion's Lookout with stunning views along the way with a sweet wallaby sighting. Add this tour to your 'must do' reservations when you're in Tasmania!!!
Absolutely great experience

5.00Cannot suggest taking a tour with wild Tasmania tours enough! Trent was an incredible tour guide who went above and beyond to give us the best tour of cradle mountain. Throughout the two whole days, Trent spoke with so much enthusiasm and passion about the wildlife and landscapes that Tasmania has to offer. We were also able to learn loads from him about the history behind some of the small towns and natural parks. Above all, the promise to see some of Australia's known for wildlife and mountain ranges up close was certainly fulfilled and would without a doubt sign up for another tour if given the opportunity! Thanks a million to wild Tasmania tours for an unforgettable trip to cradle mountain!
