Well worth the experience - an hour bus ride up to the mountain top with great narration from Paul. Could use an extra 15 minutes on top - say 45 instead of 30. As it was drive down arrived 10 minutes early so easily the 45 could be accomodated.

While in Hobart, you must visit Mt. Wellington. Our guide provided a lot of interesting information, and I wish we had more time at the summit.
