Stunning. Highly recommended. - The Bruny Island tour was fabulous. Beautiful landscapes and natural vistas, beaches aplenty, and opportunities to enjoy local produce. Plus we got to see the illustrious white wallaby in the wild! Chaboo was an excellent tour guide. Super friendly and very knowledgeable, and he made the experience unique to our group.

Great day out with Shaboo! - Great drive around the island with Shaboo. We went "off the beaten" track a couple of times to remote beaches, beautiful white sand and views. We dint stop at the Captain Cook landing but in fairness it was not advertised as a stop.

Brundy island worth seeing - Fantastic tour. Fun, interesting and informative. Chaboo our driver was kind and caring, great safe driver and fun to be with. Couldn’t fault anything. A thoroughly lovely day that I’m so glad we booked. Brundy island was really worth going to. Plenty to do and very beautiful. A great birthday celebration with good friends too.

Bruny Island tour experience - Chaboo has a great personality and was a great guide for the day. He was very knowledgeable on the local history. Small group tour allowed plenty of interaction with him and the other visitors as well as no need to rush any activities. A good variety of local nature activities and Island produce stores.

Oyster tasting, cheese, wine, beer, honey, wild life, beautiful beaches and a surprise visit from two white wallabies - Chaboo was a great tour guide, friendly and a genuinely funny guy who elevated the trip experience. I would totally recommend this trip over a larger trip as we had the tour bus to ourselves, so we could be as flexible as we liked. Oyster tasting, cheese, wine, beer, honey, wild life, beautiful beaches and a surprise visit from a couple of white wallabies. This was a great trip and would recommend to anyone visiting Tasmania, especially if you’re spending a few days in Hobart. One tip - it’s 4 seasons in one day on Bruny, so prepare for changes in weather. A lovely guide. Knowledgeable and friendly. What more could you ask for? - Oh yeah, Chaboo bought us some delicious sour dough bread from the outside fridges! - if you know, you know! Thanks for making our Bruny Island trip a memorable one Chaboo. See you next time!

Good personalised service - Chaboo was an interesting guide. He was a bit slow off the mark but impressed me latter. The spots we stopped at were interesting and the food options were moorish. The cheeses & the ice-cream were delicious. Some better coordination with the lunch vender may have taken the time stress away but in the end the food from the Bruny Hotel was very nice and massive in size. We went hunting for the white (albino) wallabies but alas to no avail BUT the wallabies we saw were gorgeous and the echidna was a treat. Overall well done
