Definitely glad we chose the hop on, hop off return trip as we could enjoy the stunning views and walking tracks as long as we wanted to! If you don't like driving narrow roads, this will be perfect for you! Great value for money and bus driver had a few fun facts to share with us, Highly recommend!!!

5.00Mount Wellington is a great place to see all of Hobart from above. The views from the top are amazing you can see the whole city, the river, and the mountains in the distance. Just take an extra jumper

5.00Excellent trip up the mountain. Our driver Christian was very professional and extremely informative. Got to see a couple of extra things on the way up the mountain that i had never seen before. Had plenty of time at the summit. Even with a glitch of a large rock stuck between the wheels Christian kept us informed and calm with his great personality and jokes. With the help of my hubby we were soon back on our way to hobart.
