Bruny Island Experience

5.00Was a fantastic day exploring Bruny Island. Andy, our tour guide for the day provided a great experience, even though the weather wasn't the best. It's a great way to learn about the history of the island and it wonderful people. The tour and views of the Bruny Lighthouse were breath taking and well worth the trip. And of course there was the good. Fresh oysters, delicious cheese, native bush honey, and a great meal at the pub washed down with a local cider. One of the best tours we have done.
Jimmy is a legend to see Bruny with!

5.00Jimmy was a great guide, clearly loves what he does and you could see the great relationships he has with the businesses across the island. He was kind, inclusive, shared wonderful local knowledge, thought of everything even getting shelter for morning tea on a very wet day! He went out of his way to accommodate dropping everyone back to their door which was above and beyond! Thanks for a wonderful initiation of Bruny Island Jimmy, what a great day, had a lovely time! Lucky company to have him represent you!
Great Day at Bruny

4.00A long but interesting day spent visiting the Island. Highlights for me were climbing the steps to the lookout at the Neck and the tour of the lighthouse. All shook up the corrugated road which was pretty bad and needs urgent attention. Tastings of honey particularly good. Great included lunch, my schnitzel was huge couldn't eat it all but was really good. The cherry-apple cider also a unique experience. Great day out, aided by brilliant weather. Our tour guide Dave was great and entertaining with his dad jokes!
Bruny in a day

5.00We had a wonderful day exploring Bruny. David our guide was professional, informative and cracked a few jokes along the way. Morning tea was the highlight sampling the best oysters along with a range of delicious cheeses and fresh bread. The Neck provided spectacular views as did our tour in the lighthouse where we were able to step outside and walk around for 360 degree views. We spotted an enormous sea eagle and a few white wallabies. Honey, chocolate and cheese tastings were enjoyed along with a sumptuous lunch. Great communication , transport and organisation made our day seamless . Highly recommend this company and tour.
Beautiful Bruny

5.00Our guide Jimmy, a master storyteller who grew up in the region, knew the area, the history and the locals incredibly well. He made the tour both informative and entertaining. We feasted on local food, surrounded by breathtaking scenery, in a friendly inclusive environment. We felt really privileged to travel with such a fun group for the day, and I attribute this sense of inclusivity to Jimmy's genuine care for people and his obvious love for Bruny Island and it's history and people, both past and present. The guided lighthouse tour was a treat. Matt, the lighthouse guide, was both amusing and full of knowledge... the views from the top were stunning! Everyone in our group was made to feel comfortable to opt in or out of everything on offer. There was zero judgement if people chose not to eat oysters, climb stairs or hills, etc. On a side note, our trip coincided with a private tour led by the same company, and after several negative interactions with that guide, it further highlighted Jimmy's intelligence, maturity and professionalism as we were regularly interrupted & tormented by their guide that our group began referring to as "Dennis the menace" & "BagODix". BE SURE TO ASK FOR JIMMY!!!
Amazing day
