We got to visit a four different wineries with generous tastings, a cheese factory, had a lovely pizza for lunch. We even had time for a one hour stop with free time to explore the town of Richmond & a bonus stop at a lookout with an amazing view of Hobart.
Highly recommend.
He met the small group of six of us of us in Hobart on time and transported us through the Coal River Valley to four wineries (one where we had homemade pizza for lunch). Each selected winery had a nice array of wines to taste and provided us with enough time together to chat casually and get to know one another without feeling rushed.
At tour’s end, Peter personalized our drop-offs, providing two of our group a trip to the airport and us to our hotel location just west of our downtown drop off. I left my bag with my phone and wallet in the van, not realizing it until we got back to our room. Peter took the time and effort to drive back to our hotel and return my things on his own dime. Overall, a great tour on a beautiful day with a good guy!
Suggest you bring your own water for the bus if that's your thing!
He even suggested I take a photo of my family, staged where we should stand and got the beautiful valley in the background. Such a stunning momento of a beautiful day.
Peter was great,attentive and provided the group with local knowledge.
Small group tour which was great,price was good and 5 hours was really well spent.
Thank you Peter.
Peter knew all the history of Hobart and he even took us to a creek and we seen a wild platypus!
