Clint was very knowledgeable and a great tour guide. I would highly recommend taking the long hike down to Wineglass Bay if you're feeling up to it. It was beautiful and well worth the hike back up to the top. The sandwiches from the Swansea Bakery were delicious!

Beautiful Wineglass Bay

Lyn_T, Sept 2023

Great day tour to Wineglass Bay. Our tour guide, Peter, was great, he made it a really fun day! Would highly recommend this tour

Just beautiful experience

Maira_A, Sept 2023

Beautiful spots and variety of landscapes, our guide was so gentle and he’s always aware of our questions

Great experience

Cherry_K, Aug 2023

The stunning view of Wineglass Bay was breathtaking. It was an amazing experience, highly recommend!

Views & photo stops made it worth the sore legs after hike

Aimee_S, Aug 2023

As the tour info suggests, definitely be prepared for a big hike/climb to get to the Wineglass Bay lookout. It took our group approx 45 mins to hike up to the lookout, with a lot of steep steps towards the top. If you have any mobility or heart issues etc this is probably not the tour for you - even the "moderate/easier" option would not suit those with mobility concerns & unfit people. There was an option to be left at the Freycinet Lodge, but if you are paying the money for the experience of seeing Wineglass Bay then it seems like a waste of money to go and sit in a lodge for nearly 3 hours of the day trip. If you are willing and able, the climb to see Wineglass Bay was definitely worth the sore legs the next day! There were 2 options - walk from carpark up to lookout then back down, or, walk up to lookout, down approx 1000 steps to Wineglass Bay beach, then back up the same steps and back down to carpark. Those who did the extra section had their packed lunch on beach, those of us who did the shorter hike took our lunches to Honeymoon Bay instead and also saw Cape Tourville / Lighthouse which the other group missed. The tour guide Nick was very knowledgeable about Tasmania & its history, the local areas, hiking, the native flora/fauna/geology etc. There were ample stops for bathroom breaks, views, etc. Honeymoon Bay was also lovely, as was the Cape Tourville walk near the lighthouse. My only suggestion is that maybe there could have been a quick stop in Swansea (perhaps the stop to buy lunch instead of Sorell, or at least a photo stop in lieu of one of the 2 stops at Raspins Beach?) as we drove through Swansea twice and people commented it looked nice near the water and we would have liked to stop quickly for photo etc. August was a good time to go as there were no big summer crowds on the hike but it wasn't too cold for hiking - most people ended up removing jackets etc as the hike progressed. A good option for a (long) day trip if you have the extra time in Hobart, I believe this company also had a version of the tour where you could meet up with another group about 2/3 of the way and continue to Launceston with them.

Beautiful, fun, adventurous tour

Staci_F, July 2023

We had a fun day exploring at Wine Glass bay. Ben was a great tour guide. It’s a hike to the top to have some spectacular views, but well worth it. — it’s a long day, but I’d you have the time, take the trip

Wonderful

Beverly_F, June 2023

This tour was amazing, tour guide Ben went over and beyond his role. Helped and so educational about the area.

Awesome exploration on the beautiful bays, beaches, trees, rocks and lighthouse

Heather_Y, May 2023

Peter is a great tour guide. The walk to wineglass Bay had a crazy amount of stairs (which is fairly easy to climb) and I'm glad we managed to do it at our own pace, enjoying the breathtaking scenery and awesome commentaries on the blue pine and eucalyptus along the journey. Totally enjoyed being an explorer for the day!

Fun, entertaining, and informative

Tawnya, May 2023

Ben was amazing! We had so much fun, and Ben is very knowledgeable! Overall, i would recommend this tour to anyone, especially with Ben as the tour guide!

Enjoyable experience due to our wonderful tour guide, Trevor

Senan_L, July 2022

Wow, what an experience! I left from Hobart around 7:30 am. During the whole journey, we stopped at various locations, to see scenic views along East Coast. But what makes the trip particularly memorable, is the tour guide. What an amazing person, with amazing vigour and energy. He kept us entertained and there was never a dull moment. His positive energy and amazing outlook on life was infectious. Hiking up to the Wineglass Bay was also enjoyable as the tour guide and I had wonderful conversations till we reached the lookout. Trevor is the best. I recommend everybody to experience tours by Trevor.

Our Guide Nick is awesome!

Clinton Saves The Day

Jannine_N, Feb 2022

Clinton has to be one of my favourite tour guides on this trip. Very friendly and he had some amazing historical stories to tell. Hike was hard but eventually got there. Beautiful view from the top. With encouragement from Clinton I made it :)
