I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The tour guide was very friendly and helpful. He managed to changed the cave tour and the thermal pool times around which was much better. Would highly recommend this to anyone interested in caves and/or tree top walks.

Beatiful Experience

Melissa_G, Jan 2024

Great tour

Noel_M, Dec 2023

I appreciated the fact that it was a small group. Our guide was very informative and helpful. All in all it was a great experience.

fantastic tour

nicholas_b, Oct 2023

natures beauty and the walks in the luscious scenery was spectacular plus Hastings cave is interesting and a great experience

A first rate adventure

Darren_S, Aug 2023

One of the best tours I've undertaken. Trevor is a first rate guide and provides comprehensive and enthusiastic insight into the areas/towns/environments travelled through, especially re the local flora, which is incredible. Both the airwalk and Newdegate cave are amazing experiences. The whole day was an absolute joy. Essential!

Tour was great

Onki_Y, Jun 2023

The experience was great! If you’d like walking this is the one to go for. If you’re not a regular walker or elderly, you might find it a little difficult. The tour guide Nick was excellent, very thorough and calm. We wish we had more time enjoying the hot thermal pool. If they could fit this event to the trip would be great. Highly recommended.

Spectacular Caves and nice day trip!

JingYuan_L, May 2023

Great trip adequate spacing between activities and Dave shared a lot about the place. Would recommend this as one of the day trip out of Hobart!

Fantastic tour! Even more...

Erica_M, Apr 2023

Fantastic tour! Even more fantastic tour guide! The Hastings caves and the Swing bridges were the highlight!

Lots of stairs

Rita_B, Feb 2023

We all had a great time but the stairs are a killer. Lots of walking but for our group in our senior years we found the stairs very difficult to navigate. We all slept well when we got back to our hotel.

Top Notch

Manojlo_V, Dec 2022

Great tour and a very skilled and knowledgeable local tour guide Ash. Started off with a short drive from Hobart to the park. The air walk gave you a different perspective of the forest. Be sure to do the full walk around the park to experience the bridges over the river. And then a short drive out to Hastings cave. Met with staff that work specifically at the cave from the park. They are extremely knowledgeable of all facets of the cave and the history. Walked us through all chambers of the cave. Pictures turned out phenomenal. The age of the cave and the beauty within are mind blowing. You definitely will enjoy this tour. Thank you Ash.

An interesting and relaxing tour.

A must do if you visit Hobart

Dustin_D, Mar 2022

My wife and I had a great time on this tour. We had a nice small group this day, which made for a different experience than the larger tour groups. Lots of lovely nature to explore both above and below. Nice little bookend to pick up some fresh apples on the way home.

The Tahune area tour was an unforgettable trip. One not to be missed

Robert_H, Mar 2022

The highlights of the tour were- The thrill of walking on the 40m high airwalk with lovely views. Crossing the Cable bridge over the river. The bush walks.Visiting the incredible Hastings Caves.

Totally recommend

Small group Very beautiful walk Great day out easy walk with the guided tour Don’t forget your camera Plenty of photos to take

Terrific Tahune and Hastings caves!

Naiade_P, Jan 2022

The tour was absolutely fun and the amazing scenic trip is a win-win by itself. Our guide Nick is so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the local history and aspects of nature that it is contagious. We travel with two teenage daughters and the family loved every minute of it. Don't miss this one!

Well worth the cost as the day & the guide were excellent. The Hasting caves were astoundingly beautiful

Marilyn_J, Apr 2021

The trip down was informative & beautiful. The Tahune walk & bridges were amazing experience with wonderful views of the surrounding country side

A great day :)

Rachel_B, Dec 2018

From the beginning of our day, when our incredible tour guide, Luke, picked us up, the vibe was very friendly and relaxed. Luke was very knowledgeable yet unpretentious, and very likeable - thank you, Luke, for a fabulous day!! The Tahune Airwalk and swinging bridges walks were incredible, with beautiful views of forest and river. Hastings Caves were spectacular - hopefully you get Simon as your cave tour guide too, as he was brilliant - a respectful and genuine acknowledgement of country, insightful cave information, and good humour. The only thing that was a bit disappointing was the “thermal pool” - it is basically just a swimming pool with kids running around everywhere... not very peaceful at this time of year haha! But instead of swimming in the pool, there are options of nice, easy walks to take around the pool site instead (unfortunately the platypus was very elusive). The day was topped off by a visit to an amazing honey shop, with bees to observe, and honey whiskey to try (definitely try it! Amazing.).

Beautiful scenery. Memorable...

ANN_E, Mar 2018

Beautiful scenery. Memorable experience however the travel time was a bit long for me. Wonderful tour guide.

A well worth trip to take when you...

JooLing_T, Feb 2018

A well worth trip to take when you are in Hobart. The company contacted us prior to the trip to confirm the pick up location and time. The pick up on the day was smooth. Although the driver/ tour guide Nick is young, he is very experience, friendly and knowledgeable, especially in the fauna and flora of the bush. He took the time to know everyone and our names and make sure that he spend time with each and everyone of us. A very commendable attitude. We enjoyed the trip very much.

A varied day of scenery and...

Andrew_H, Apr 2017

A varied day of scenery and activities. The airwalk is great and make sure you do the extra walk down via the suspension bridges. The pool at the springs was a bit disappointing, just looks like a surburban public pool, could do with some better landscaping. And then a change of pace with the caves.
