Truly a highlight! - From the moment we stepped aboard, Mark transformed what could’ve been a standard sightseeing tour into a vibrant, story-rich journey through Hobart’s heart and soul. His energy was infectious, and his knack for weaving personalized factoids into each stop kept us engaged, entertained, and constantly learning. Whether it was quirky colonial trivia or insights into Tasmania’s evolving culture, Mark tailored the experience to our group’s interests with impressive finesse. It felt less like a tour and more like being shown around by a passionate local friend who genuinely loves this city. The pacing was perfect, the sites were stunning, and Mark’s commentary added layers of meaning to everything we saw. If you’re looking for a tour that’s both informative and delightfully human, this is it. Highly recommend booking with Mark—you’ll leave with a deeper appreciation for Hobart and a smile that lasts well beyond the final stop. We booked via Klook btw

Tassie Tours - Terrific! - We took two tours with Tassie Tours. One in Hobart and one in Port Arthur. Our guide was really informative and gave lots of info while driving. He also let us know the itinerary before heading to the next stop. Bus was very comfortable. We stopped for lunch at the bakery in Richmond, beautiful little town. Mt. Wellington and the wombats at Bonorong were our faves! The Tasmania landscape is beautiful! Thank you Tassie Tours!

Highly recommended tour with great individual tips from the guide - The tour was very individual. We got great tips for a wine tasting and snacks as well as for a brewery. The tour really covered all the highlights with enough individual time to explore. We were also able to explore Bonorong Wildlife Park in a completely relaxed way.

TASMANIA unique and interesting. - Great tour by Nathan of Tazzie Tours booked through VIATOR. Really liked the stop at Bonorong Nature Wildlife Reserve and saw tasmanian devils, echnidea, wombats, snakes and birds. Went to Richmond and then up Mt. Wellington for a nice view. Upon request, stopped at Cascade Brewery, the oldest brewery in Australia on the way back.

Nice and Enjoyable Hobart Highlights Day Trip - A wonderful, enjoyable and educational trip on 22 Mar. The driver cum guide was very professional, friendly, knowledgeable and humorous. Only pity was that the weather was not perfect when we were at the top of the Wellington mountain.

Worth money - The view were amazing ,the tour guide was wonderful and has so many knowledge also he stopped us in too many places and lookouts and explained everything to us . Only negative things was the weather when we went to Mount Wellington was raining and cloudy. We didn’t have a chance to see the city on the top but this kind of things you can’t predict it. everything else was super good.

Loved Tassie Tours - We booked Tassie Tours as a shore excursion off of our cruise. We elected the highlights tour. It was wonderful. Tassie Tours was very communicative both via text and email. We knew exactly were to meet our guide. The highlight of the tour was Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary and Mt Wellington. Our driver was informative along the way and did a great job. We would MOST definitely recommend Tassie Tours!
