We really enjoyed both parts of this tour. The Mount Wellington bus was a must do when in Hobart. The views were amazing. The guide/driver was really friendly. The Hop on Hop off bus was a great way to see the town when you have limited time. The driver Col, was informative and funny!

The tour guide was fantastic. Dad jokes and interesting facts, and got a good idea about other things to look at around Hobart. Being able to hop on and off made it easy to explore the surrounding trails.
