Our driver was very good in that his commentary was both informative and entertaining. We had enough stops for comfort breaks and to buy food and each chosen spot provided quality food (especially the "dairy " - best ice cream I've ever tasted). Cradle Mountain was spectacular and we even got a fine, clear day and we were able to see the whole mountain which, apparently doesn't always happen. All in all, a bloody good day.
Exceptional tour and guide!

A thoroughly enjoyable and informative tour! What an amazing view of greater Hobart and the Derwent River system from atop Mt Wellington. A once in a life time experience was had seeing a platypus swimming in the waterway adjacent Cascade Brewery on the return leg. The 2nd half of the tour was visiting MONA. An unforgettable and unique contemporary art setting and experience - escapism at its best! Thank you to our talented tour guide who was super interesting and knowledgeable.
Just ok

Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate. Very windy, cold and no view. Driver’s microphone didn’t work half the time and couldn’t hear what he was saying. He took us to other spots with a view.
Beautiful Mount Wellington

It was ok but just a lot of traveling even though there were plenty of lookouts on the way up. Fortunately, the weather was favourable to enjoy the views.
