  • This was an excellent and very enjoyable tour! Everyone, from the lady’s in the office, to Phil our Driver, were amazing. If you want an exciting way to see Tasmanias beautiful aqua life, then the cruise is the best way to do it and to get dropped off at the foot of Port Arthur was a even better. And what a way to end a day with a tour of the historical site, which is beautiful in its own right. Would highly highly recommend!

  • We enjoyed our guide, Trevor. He was knowledgeable about Mount Fields National Park. He kept our group moving at a swift pace. He spotted a pandemelon in the thick tree growth and we got nice photos. Trevor was overly considerate waiting for guests who were no shows. I wonder if there could have been better communication between the main offices and Trevor. I would have liked to have more time at Bonorong.
