Mark was an incredible tour guide. Filled with knowledge of Tasmania and across the world. We packed in the day with many sights. The bus was comfortable too

This was an awesome tour - and the main reason was Mark our driver / guide. He was awesome / personable / friendly / very very knowledgeable. I will say the Bonrong Sanctuary was great - feeding kangaroos, the animal handlers were great answering questions/ you could tell they loved their job. However, if you have a mobility issue - this would be a hard tour. The walkway was uneven and rocky.

The guide was very helpful and accommodating. It rained all day and was not enjoyable. He made the best of it for us.

Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary was a great place to visit. Kangaroos , Tasmanian Devils were all there but they were rain soaked as were we. Still enjoyed seeing the animals. This part was on our on without the tour guide and we paid the entry fee. The town of Richmond was nice with many food shops and other shops like antique store etc. The guide tried to show us the views from the highest spots around Hobart but the low clouds and rain won . Still we enjoyed the day.

We had a great time on our tour! The Bonorong Sanctuary was amazing! Feeding kangaroos and observing them hop around was a highlight of the tour! We also enjoyed Mount Wellington although from the top it was really cloudy, we were able to see a good section when the clouds broke! We highly recommend this tour while visiting Hobart!
