  • Raining Again

    tluke01,May 4, 2026

    Argh, Cradle Mountain rains most of the year and we kept up the tradition of a wet arse but the tour one of the best tours we can ask for we were lucky to go with one of the best guides we have been with a great company. The day was unlucky with the weather, But Ben made the trip with love, knowledge of the area, history. Although we saw the Mountain and Lake with water dripping off our noses, we could see the beauty around us. On the return trip he stopped at Weindorfer forest to get to see when it is raining the moss and other plant life come alive. We were lucky to see a Wombat feeding beside the road within five metres of the small bus. All i can say rain does not always mean a bad day.

    Great small group tour and our guide Alan was so friendly, informative and supportive especially to me who would not have walked all the walks on the day without his help. Went above and beyond to ensure we all had a memorable experience. Views and walks were something to remember for a long time.

    We thouroughly enjoyd the trip, the commentary onboard from Bill our tour guide about the history of towns we tavelled through was very informtive, his depth of knoweledge about the establishment of the Cradle Mountain area and his overall general knoweledge of early Tasmania was excellent. Make sure to take a rain jacket as the weather is very cool and changeable at Cradle Mt. and wear comfy walking shoes. A Sandwich Lunch wrap was provided it was made freshly on the day, along with a cake slice, Apple and bottle of water. There are also plenty of stops to purchase other snack items. We want to thank Dale our driver and Bill or an excellent day.

  • Cradle Mountain is a must do and doing the tour gives you more information about the area.

    Even though the weather wasn't the greatest Garry & Steve did a wonderful job as our guide and bus driver. The commentary was great and the bus trip very comfortable. We did get a little bit of sunshine to enable us to do the walks and even see the baby in the cradle. The couple of stops along the way were also good. In fact, we went back to Sheffield two days later to spend more time there. Thank you for a wonderful day.

  • A very worthwhile and entertaining day tour of Cradle Mountain

    Excellent tour and an outstanding guide (Ben). Great coverage of the park, historic residence, and several points in-between (comfort breaks, local foods including honey and cheeses). Ben is encyclopedic in his command of important information, from Australian history, botany, geology, anthropology, Zoology, and politics. He presents in an entertaining, friendly (and humorous) fashion. He keeps the tour organized and on time. He’s also an excellent driver of this large vehicle with a trailer. He prepared us well for the potential for inclement weather, but the weather was fantastic. Please note there is limited storage space on the bus.

    We had a great day on this excursion! Our drivers were very knowledgeable and passionate about the whole area and shared so much interesting information with us. All of the sites we visited were fun and interesting and lunch at Dove Lake was just right. It was a great day to finish our Tassie adventure.

  • Good tour with a knowledgeable and friendly guide

    This was a great tour and our guide Ben both very friendly and knowledgeable.. The stops in Sheffield (both ways) gave ample time to view the murals. The included lunch packs were very good. Although the weather wasn’t great, we braved the elements at Cradle Mountain to get a few photos. Hopefully we can return there on a better weather day 🤞🏻

  • Fantastic trip
