Don’t miss this experience, the day was amazing from learning about the rock formations, seeing so much marine life, playing with the dolphins, laughing with the male seals as they bark as each other. Ben our guide was so knowledgeable and accommodating. We all enjoyed ourselves and would highly recommend this tour!

Truly excellent tour led by Josh who took us there and back and could not have done more us during the tour! Food was good and everything went as planned! The care taken with my wife ensured she did not suffer any motion sickness even in a large swell! Well done

Well organised day. Driver/guide Taylor was very friendly provided great information and was a safe driver. Great scenery while in the boat that you wouldn’t see if on the land. Seals were fun. Lunch was very good too. Well worth the money for the day.

This was a wonderful tour. We saw such beautiful landscapes and so many dolphins and seals. The guides were very knowledgeable and even found an albatross for me.

A great trip. Saw dophins, seals albatrosses, wallabies, caves and more. Wore rain gear but did not get wet. I am a senior and had no problem. The lunch and morning tea were delicious. We were well taken care of

A lot to see on the way to Bruny and back. Plenty of animals on the side of the road and when on the boat ride. Taking the ferry while on the bus is super fun. The boats are powerfully and new so no concerns over running into issues. The dolphins and sea lions are probably the highlight of the trip and the food and tea coffee are good in amount and size. Isabel is an excellent tour guide and driver and can tell she likes what she does! She makes jokes and is friendly when you ask her questions. The one “bad” thing is there are no microphones and speakers on the boat so sometimes is hard ro hear and understand what the guides are saying is you’re sitting in the front part of the boat.
