4.00Bring enough cloth to expect the unexpected cold and rain. Suggest more time at Sheffield, so travelers can have time to walk around and see those wall painting.

4.00We had a lovely day with a fabulous guide! The only reason it was 4 stars instead of 5 was because we didn’t go to the cheese factory and we were looking forward to that part of the day.
A brilliant day. Just like the photos on a fine sunny day

5.00A really great day, first time to see sun in 3 weeks. Extraordinary. Our tour guide Garry was brilliant very knowledgeable. The stop at sheffield was a perfect time seeing the murals and a lovely coffee. A toilet stop at the visitors centre and then onto Cradle Mountain. It was just the right balance of time to see both sides, the boat shed and the boulder lookout. We then had a light lunch and walked to the first cabin built. After this we headed back stopping to walk to a beautiful waterfall. We then headed back stopping at the ashgrove cheese factory. Just enough time for a lovely icecream or coffee. The entire day went like clockwork and Garry was absolutely brilliant. It also helped that everyone was punctual making a lovely day perfect.
