Was such an amazing little trip. We got to see so much of Hobart. Even though Mt Wellington was closed Jarrod did their best to get us as close to the top as we possibly could and we got to walk up the summit a bit to a look out. Jarrod was really informational, as we passed a lot of landmarks he was able to give us some information about it. Thank you for such a good day!

We are unfortunate that day as we are not able to enter and feed the kangaroos and at the same time it was snowing on the mountain. Thus, not able to head up but our guide Jarrod was amazing and bring us to other places to fulfil our wishes. He drives us around to see other ways to see the mountain. It was quite a small group and a nice vehicle too. Definitely a great tour even with all the unseen circumstances.

Mum and I enjoyed the tour immensely. The waterfalls were amazing. I've never seen anything like it before. All stops were very enjoyable. Jarrod our tour guide and driver shared local knowledge along the way. And helped mum with her walker all day. Would definitely do this tour again. Thank you
