Things to do in Cradle Mountain

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 guide was very informative. Came on time. Thoroughly talked through all the enclosures we walked past. You definitely get to see devils in action. Highly recommend this tour!

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.

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.

My family and I have a great time. The tour was very insightful. Weather was a bit chilly but that's expected this time of the year at Cradle Mountain. Saw many Tasmanian devils. Strongly recommended.

This is really a great tour for exploring tas, also our tour guide Anthony is very nice and professional.

I actually booked the tour because of the aurora offer in the description. Unfortunately, until the end of the tour, the metric for aurora sighting was poor and we ended up not going for the sighting at all. Despite that unlucky part, this tour gives amazing experience for travelers who plan to visit Tasmania for the first time. We don’t speak Chinese at all, but tour guides always give English explanation in addition to pre-recorded English audio guide of each destination. If you are hunting for aurora sighting, make sure you’ve checked the possibility of seeing the aurora Australis before booking. Otherwise, just enjoy the beauty of Tasmania as covered by this tour.

We had a wonderful experience on the Tasmania 6-Day Classic Attractions Tour with Aurora. Overall, everything was very well organized, from the itinerary to the daily logistics, which made the trip smooth and stress-free. A special thank you to our guides, Martin and Mark. They were both friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful throughout the journey. They went out of their way to make sure everyone was comfortable, shared interesting information about the places we visited, and created a fun and welcoming atmosphere. The itinerary covered Tasmania’s beautiful highlights, and we enjoyed the stunning scenery and unique experiences. It was a great way to explore the island without having to worry about the planning. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a well-organized tour with excellent guides. Thank you, Martin and Mark, for making our Tasmania trip so memorable!
