Good place to stay when visiting Launceston. The restroom may feel cold in winter, but there is great hot water.

The Tamar Valley Wine Tour perfectly combined scenic beauty, informative tastings, and warm hospitality. Each cellar door had its own unique charm, and the wines—especially the cool-climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay—were exceptional. Our guide was knowledgeable and engaging, sharing stories that really brought the region to life. Lunch was a definite highlight: fresh, local produce paired with a glass of wine and stunning vineyard views. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Tasmania’s wine scene in style!

We were greeted at the gate with a glass of 2019 sparkling wine, which was very atmospheric. Bea was our guide, she was very professional! The history of the estate was very interesting. She was very passionate about being soaked in wine. You can also make your own sparkling wine and take it away after enjoying lunch. Please note that you need to drive to the winery by yourself, remember not to drive after drinking (leave a companion who does not drink) 😆 Unfortunately, we can't visit the winemaking process, and there are no fruits on the grape vines in winter. We ordered oysters at our own expense, which were fresh and delicious.

Purchased 2 activity tour for puffing billy train, heasville and Yarra choloaterie as well as Phillip island, moonlit sanctuary, nobbies and Brighton beach boxes day tours. The tours were guided by 2 different company. Both guides were knowledgeable and multi tasked as a driver and photographer too. Redemption was fuss free. Sufficient time was provided at each stop to allow us to take photos or have meals. There were some cost savings compared to booking them individually. Recommend to purchase the pass depending whether the activities listed are places you planned to go.

A must-see tour in Tasmania! My guide, Mr. Graem from Tour Tasmania, was fantastic—he shared lots of interesting information about Cradle Mountain and really looked after all the participants. His instructions at each stop were clear and helpful. Cradle Mountain and the national park are unbelievably picturesque and absolutely worth the visit.

We highly recommend visitor to join this tour, as David shares lots of information regarding tasmania and cradle mountain to us, leads us to look for Wombat, and very helpful in all the way! Thank you very much David! We love here and you make the tour perfect!
