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.

I had a fantastic experience on the Cradle Mountain day tour. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, with stunning mountains, peaceful lakes, and beautiful walking trails. It was the perfect place to enjoy nature and escape from the city. The tour was very well-organized, and we were given enough time to explore the area, take photos, and enjoy short walks. I especially loved the views around Dove Lake—they were truly unforgettable. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and shared interesting information about the local wildlife and history of the area, which made the trip even more meaningful. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tasmania. It’s a great way to experience the natural beauty of Cradle Mountain in just one day.

This Cradle Mountain tour was very satisfying, with spectacular scenery and just the right trail arrangement. What I want to praise most is the tour guide, who was very professional and attentive, explained everything clearly along the way, and didn't leave a single moment of the trip blank. He also paid attention to everyone's condition along the way, which made me feel very reassured, because the mountain roads are a bit winding, he would remind everyone to tell him if they got carsick, and even proactively asked everyone how they were feeling. The itinerary itself was arranged just right, the scenery was very beautiful, and the transportation was smooth. Overall, it was a very comfortable trip, but the tour guide's attitude of "keeping everyone's condition in mind" is what impressed me the most and is most worthy of praise. I would highly recommend it! The transportation pick-up and drop-off was punctual and clean, and the moving process was very smooth. Overall, this trip is very worthwhile, high CP value, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to go to Cradle Mountain.

David was detailed and he make sure all of us how things came about and why and how.. it was a fun trip. we went in a small van. easier to know everyone. love the itinerary, covers the mural(sheffield), dove lake at the bottom of the cradle mountain(had a nice stroll), gowrie park(tropical trail and wombats, padamelon) and ashgrow cheese factory(a small snack before heading home). it's the best combination!

Amazing trip with thoughtful arrangements to make sure we got a taste of cradle mountain without worrying too much about logistics. Ben delivered brilliant service and in-depth explanations to history, natural evolution and personal experience on cradle mountain national park. His love and passion to this region is unparalleled. PS be sure to wear weather-proof outfit as weather can be really unpredictable. We experienced sun and snow within 30 minutes.

Paul was an experienced and informative guide. We were fortunate to have a beautiful blue bird weather that day, with some snow that fallen the night before. We spotted some native wombats too in the mountains. Truly fortunate and had an awesomw day out.

The scenery is beautiful, and the tour guide's explanations are very detailed and a bit humorous. Bottled water is available on the bus, so you don't have to worry about forgetting to bring water. The mural town is a short stop, but it's sufficient. Remember to bring your warm clothes with you before changing to the shuttle bus, as the temperature drops noticeably after the shuttle takes you up the mountain! Although it's called a shuttle bus, it's the same tour guide and the same group members. You're just switching to a smaller shuttle bus to enter the national park's restricted area. The meal is simple, and you can enjoy lunch while overlooking the beautiful scenery. I think if the weather is good, you could even grab your food and have a picnic on the grassland.
