Highly enlightening Hobart waterfront walk
Peter_R, Mar 2024
Our guides knowledge of the area was remarkable & added depth to our walk. Having a small group also allowed for more questions which she was also able to answer.
Excellent Tour

Our tour guide, Deb, was fantastic - very knowledgeable, extremely informative, and above all a great sense of humor…
An informative and enjoyable experience
Gail_A, Mar 2024
I always find the stories behind history quite interesting. But they are often amusing as well, particularly when the supposed facts of history turn out to be blurred, misconstrued, or not true at all, as was the case in some instances on this walking tour. Good fun and a good day.
Must do
