very very good experience! learnt a lot from the guide about the Tasmanian Devils and Quolls! she is amazing and explained very clearly. kudos to her and the team for their conservation efforts and tender loving care to this little ones! I feel the animals are well looked after :) just to note, you are entitled for 24 hours entry before and after your ticket timing, so do visit them again after your stipulated time. highly recommend them if you are in the area. support them as your tickets pay for their conservation efforts!

Planned trip for those who cant drive or dun want to drive a long way. Weather was nice in winter which is nice for hiking.

The pass was easy to purchase. Got the Australia pass (2 activities). Definitely, had to plan ahead and 2 activities that are worth more than the cost of the pass.

My friends and I chose to do a full loop around the lake on the day of our tour. The trail was mostly flat, and the scenery along the way was beautiful, featuring both lake views and surrounding forests. Unfortunately, the weather was a bit overcast when we were walking, and we had to rush through the latter half of the walk to make our集合 time, so we couldn't fully enjoy the views. After the walk, we had lunch at a cabin near Ronny Creek. If you have time, you can also take a short, ten-minute walk to try your luck at spotting wombats.

Truly enjoy the day tour to Cradle Mountain from Launceston arranged by McDermott's Coaches. Our guide David not only show us the best location for photoshoots but also gave an enriching history on Tasmania and how Cradle Mountain became a National Park worthy for everyone to enjoy it's scenary. We truly love the story of Gustave and Kate in their efforts in conservation and we understand why as we walk around the mountain immense with it's beauty and scenic view.

The tour guide was very friendly and personable, like a living history book, introducing the history of Cradle Mountain. The private car and lunch included in the tour were very convenient. We also visited Mural Town, but due to its distance, the sightseeing time there was not very long. We had about 1.5 hours for independent hiking before the guide led us on the rest of the tour; more time would have been better. Overall, I was very satisfied.

I spent eight days in Tasmania and participated in several day tours. I genuinely feel that the Bay of Fires day tour was the most enjoyable and highly recommended. David is truly an excellent local guide; the itinerary was well-planned, his commentary was professional, and he was always friendly and attentive to us. Additionally, there were six of us on the tour that day, and even though we were all from different places and meeting for the first time, we were fortunate that everyone was very friendly and talkative. The atmosphere of the entire tour was fantastic, leaving us with wonderful memories.🩷

The guides were very nice and gave us lots of information, not only on safety measures but also sharing stories about the surrounding trees. The zipline itself was very enjoyable—fast and high, while still making us feel completely safe. The guides also helped take a bunch of photos. We enjoyed the tour a lot!
