Mt Wellington Tour - Our driver Tony was knowledgeable and hilarious- his dad jokes were outstanding. Great tour with gorgeous views part way up the mountain. Unfortunately it was cloudy at the top so no views but still fun exploring and experiencing the cold and wind. Loved the commentary telling us about Hobart's history and recommendations for places to visit in Hobart. Thank you 🙏

Must do experience. - Amazing experience!! Our bus driver Tony was friendly, funny and very accommodating - made for an insightful and very worthwhile trip. The views are, as anyone would guess, absolutely spectacular and if you’re a visitor to Hobart this must be on your to do list.

Great views, fantastic journey. - Overall, a scandalously good experience: Paul (not Richard) our tour guide and driver offered impeccable driving skills that got us to the top of Mt Wellington, and a wealth of local knowledge delivered through a running commentary that combined depth with hilarity. Worth doing again...and a standing ovation. The journey ended with a taste of the best (seriously) coffee in Hobart.

Great experience, definitely recommend - Had a wonderful trip with Toni as the driver, he was funny and knowledgeable and also quite the photographer and was more than happy to help people out with their photos so they weren’t all selfies. A great experience 😀

Amazing Mt Wellington tour. If you have the time, highly recommend the Richmond Tour as well. - Had a great day. Paul was an amazing tour guide. Originally only booked the Mt Wellington Bus in the morning. But was sold on the Richmond Tour by Paul and was so glad I decided to do both that day. Paul was a great tour guide and had some very interesting info and recommendations. Had such a great time on both.

Snow on Kunanyi - Driver was knowledgeable, polite and friendly. The tour was very enjoyable. Pickup from Brooke st Pier was better to get first choice of seats.
