What a great trip! Staff at booking office were happy, helpful and efficient. Driver guide Taylor was awesome. Shared lots of great information. Morning tea and lunch (included in cost) were delicious. Our female boat driver (sorry I can’t remember your name!) was fabulous! Very skilled and funny. We saw some amazing things! Highly recommend this trip.

This is a highly recommended tour experience to see the wonders of Bruny Island. Our guide was Josh. His understanding of the local area and knowledge help us understand the sites we were visiting. He gave us good knowledgeable commentaries of the various places and wildlife in the area. A young energetic guide always make the tour extra special. We have been on a few tours by the same operator and their moto and choice of tour guides makes it always a wonderful and at times exciting experience. A must do to see and experience the beauty and wonders of the island. The scenery was just nothing short of spectacular.

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.
