Great national parks appreciation tour - While we got really lucky with nice weather on the tour, Ben and Aaron made sure we had a good time even if the weather hadn’t cooperated. I really appreciated how they communicated stop information and gave a lot of history on the way. We also had a fun bushwalk through temperate rainforest and learned about the local trees. Lunch was a nice sandwich, coffee and tea station and granola bar. The first stop in Sheffield was a half hour and plenty of time to grab an iced coffee and snack at the grocery store while everyone else on the bus lines up for the bathrooms. We also saw a few wombats!

He was refreshing & we learnt so much! The weather was wonderful fortunately so we experienced the extraordinary summer beauty of the mountain & surrounding landscapes! Spectacular! Thank you Ben for going over & above! You made our tour so awesome & amazing!

Lovely Atmosphere - Our trip started with our wonderful Driver & Tour Guide-Cate. We stopped at Sheffield to see the murals & have a break. It's a lovely little town. Than we traveled on to Cradle Mountain but unfortunately we had low cloud and didn't see it. We walked to the rock and down to the hut on the beach and still got some nice photos. Ate lunch in a hut with a nice cuppa. Also walked to the old house where the Austrian lived and threw the forest full of green moss. We stopped at the cheese factory and i had a delicious ice cream. Cate was amazing and we all got to know each other on the bus. Lovely atmosphere probably due to Cate

You can’t control the weather! - When we left Launceston the weather was warm and clear. Sheffield offered great murals and a yummy bakery and coffee shop. The drive towards Cradle mountain became foggy and light drizzle very quickly and the rest of our time was set in thick fog. It was disappointing but you can’t control the weather! Aaron and Katie were great guides and kept us informed, well fed and entertained. Didn’t get to see the cradle or the mountain. Doves lake was covered in fog but the walks were nice and easy. Not too cold and the beach hut was a great place for photos. The story of Gustav & Kate and their Waldheim chalet was also very interesting. An ice cream and some cheese at Ashgrove cheese finished the day off nicely.
