Great views, fun walks and smooth trip We had a great time on this tour with Nathan, our guide being a fantastic knowledgeable host.

His insights kept the long rides interesting. The views were amazing along to route and we were blessed to have pretty clear skies.

Loved the Tahune Airwalk where we did the three tracks. Hastings caves were awesome with cave guide also super enthusiastic.

The warm apple pie and fresh apples Nathan stopped off to get us as we headed back were a nice touch to end the trip.

Thanks Nathan and Team!

A great tour. Our pick up time was 7am, our guide , Gino was already there.
We had a small group of 8 ppl which was good.
Our first stop was at a bakery to have something to eat or buy something for later on.
A drive through Huonville valley , which was a nice town with a big bay.
Then a stop at Hastings airwalk, have 3 walks to choose from, we did the tall tree walk, over a few bridges and a stream, which was nice on a beautiful day, the trees were not that big or special .
Next part of the walk over 2 very narrow bridges were a little nerve-wracking , but not that long so was ok, the other bridge , you could feel the vibrations more.
We stayed there for 2 hrs which was enough time to have lunch also.

The drive to the caves was 1 hr away.
We walked through a rainforest to get to the cave , with some amazing original trees that have never been logged.
The guide for the cave was great , and was so informative , with many nice dolomites and crystals there.

Then a stop at Franks cider bar, where we could purchase a 'paddle' of cider samples at $12 ea. Gino said it was about 2 full drinks worth when asked how much we get , so purchased one for each of us; when they arrived it was such a large quantity ( as l'm not much of a cider drinker ) each sample was labelled with the amount of alcohol in ea. ( gave many away to other people on the tour ) also treated to apple pie with cream which was great.
Gino was a great guide, as was the tour.

Tours Around Tasmania for a personal experience. We worked with Tours Around Tasmania to get a personal small group tour ( 7pax) for 9 days. It was an amazing experience. Yes, we can talk about all the sights we saw, and we were impressed with the itinerary, but the 3 guide/drivers we had over those days were so courteous, so knowledgeable, and so willing to go out of there way to show us something extra, or to take us to the shops to pick up extra food/drink. If you want to work with a company on a working out your own itinerary, then we would highly recommend Tours Around Tasmania as value for money. Thanks to Jodi, Ludger and Alex for a great time.

Adventure, fun, warm and cold! Jodie was a top tour guide. So much knowledge and you could hear her very well. Jodie gave us lots of tips on how to enjoy our day and how to save time to make the most of the day. It was an adventure packed day for a 59 year old woman and her 60 year old husband. You do need to be fit to enjoy the day. Wear comfortable shoes and layer your clothing, the caves were cold but a must see. The walks were warm, a very beautiful day for us. Thank you!

Great tour Wonderful tour. Jodi was great; fun and knowledgable. The stops and activities felt well planned as there is a rhythm between the forest and the caves.

Exciting Very diverse experiences and a very enjoyable day, we experienced the Tasmanian culture all in one day which was incredible

Highly Recommended :) This tour is well recommended.

This day-tour was well worth the $396 for a couple (us). We took it on Sun 1 Dec 2024.
We took the bus tour 9 hours round trip, so that we did not have to drive (this day, anyway).
Pickup was very near our hotel (Salamanca, Hobart), at 10 to 8 sharp.
We were the last pickup, so we left immediately with 12 people on board.
The driver was a local Aussie / Tassie, and had a lot of the history which he shared (with jokes, of course). Thank you, mate.

First stop was breakfast at Banjo's in Kinston (own cost).
Then the Tahune Forest Walk (highly recommended).
Then the Hastings Caves (highly recommended).
The Thermal Springs (at Hastings Caves) was NOT included, and no time allowed anyway.
Then stopped at a Franks Cider Bar and Café (we purchased the Cider taste paddle, and the Apple pie and ice cream was on the house!).
Then return to Hobart, 5pm.

Tassie Tours Tasmania has purchased the tour, and now operates it (and many others).

We had one complaint:
The bus was really old - we called it "Shake, Rattle, Rock 'n Roll" !
It was a rough ride. Tassie Tours - time to upgrade this bus. Please.

Worth the Drive Well worth the 2-hour drive. The guided tour was very interesting and informative. The guides were lovely and friendly with a good sense of humor, which made the tour even more enjoyable. Plenty of photo opportunities throughout the 30 minute or so tour of the caves.

Not to be missed this was exceptional tour! Highly recommend this tour it was amazing and I booked after reading the other 5 star reviews. I went with my son who is 20 and he loved it too. Our tour guide Nathan was exceptional. Right from pickup he was amazing. He was very personable, informative and really engaged with the group. He made everyone feel included and I noticed he chatted to everyone. He also is extremely knowledgeable and has a real passion for best hikes and walks in Tasmania and also native trees. He was just as excited as the group when we reached the different locations. The highlights for us were definitely the caves, the air walk and the swinging bridges walk. Just do this tour!!!

Hastings Caves, Tahune and Huon Valley Full Day Tour from Hobart on Aug 09, 2024. Nathan was our Tour guide and was well versed on the sights we visited. He was also patient when we failed to arrive at our pickup after my wife developed a stomach upset. I contacted the Tour Operator and Nathan returned after collecting the other guests to collect me. Everything went smoothly thereafter, and I enjoyed the tour greatly. Thank you, Nathan.

Fabulous Tour Had an awesome day, beautiful lanscapes, our tour guide Nathan was exceptional. Only 2 others on the tour with us, so it was like having a private tour.
Caves were great, cold and the tour guide sang for us, to demonstrate the echo in the caves. Beautuful singing voice!
Lots of walking and driving in between but Nathan kept us entertained. Stopped for lunch at Kermandie Hotel in Port Huon, was a nice break. I had the salmon, which was lovely.
I was a bit nervous about the Airwalk but we were kept entertained by Nathan chatting to everyone. Thank you for a lovely day, well worth it and will recommend to everyone.

Great day out, some fitness level needed as the caves have some steep stairs Great day out. Interesting cave full of good stories and a nice thermal pool even though we decided not to swim in it. The tahune airwalk was good and we even went for another walk after, to the swinging bridge. Our guide Nathan was knowledgeable and very passionate about showing us tassie!

We had a lovely day touring around Port Arthur! Our tour guide Gerard was knowledgeable and friendly ☺️ We enjoyed it thoroughly, thanks Gerard!

Our tour was a great end to a wonderful holiday . Gary was a really nice , informative guide and we all had a lovely time. Its a tight time schedule but we enjoyed it all.

Amazing day out! We had an amazing day on this tour! Nathan was an excellent guide - and we felt looked after from the get go! Really appreciated a message the day before the tour to confirm the time he would pick us up from our hotel. Nathan was positive, professional, and funny, and added a great deal of value to our day. It was a long day, but perfect number of stops along the way. The Hastings Caves were incredible - a must see - and well run by a knowledgeable guide. The Tahune AirWalk was also great, with an optional 3km walk over two swinging bridges which was a lot of fun too. Would highly recommend to people of all ages (just consider there are a fair few stairs in the caves, but we were guided at an easy pace) - a must do if visiting Hobart or wanting to see more of Tassie’s south!

This visit to Hobart and the 2 nights up country met all my expectations. Mark, the coach driver, luggage handler, and overall information dispenser was superb. His careful driving and commentary made this one of my most memorable trips away.

I cannot speak more highly of our tour guide Keeley. She took us through a brilliantly planned trip, was super friendly to talk to, and had an amazing amount of knowledge about the local flora and fauna in each location. I was sad that the tour had to end!! All of the stops were breathtaking and time flew as the day went on. Incredible trip!! 5 stars, definitely worth it, don’t miss out!! ✨

Tour guide Keeley was awsome so informative and helpful and so nice. We loved the hasting cave experience great guide and Keeley came with us on the air walk and that was incredible. I must say our first point of call Jess was so nice as well. Great tour and definitely recommend it. Thanks Di and lyall from Queensland

Our tour guide + driver, Mr. Mark Dickensin demonstrated his professional skills on driving, even under pouring rain and sharing much history with fun facts about Tasmania. His hospitality led five of us as a family to an unforgettable trip and we all had great fun. We also thank for the effective communication between Mark and his manager, Jess, on the special request we asked for during the tour.

Had a fantastic day Huw was great host and guide and David was wealth of knowledge as well .great tour

We have been on many tours internationally and locally. JO was by far the most utmost professional and laid back tour guide in the world! Thank you Jo for the entertainment and extra above and beyond moments and memories ???? Until next time. The Stuart's ????

Great experience! Our tour guide Jack was very knowledgeable about Tasmania, sharing lots of interesting facts along the journey. The caves and airwalk were definitely highlights. Would highly recommend.

Huw was an excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable of the areas in Tasmania we visited and he looked after everyone in our small tour group very well. We got to see some beautiful parts of Tasmania all while being driven in comfort around for the day. Thanks Huw and Tours around Tasmania.

Jack was an awesome tour guide, for the Hastings Cave & Huon Valley tour. The caves and air walk were my favourite!

A day well spent The day tours really beat hiring a car to visit the same spots. Transport and any additional fees are covered and you also get a local commentary bringing valuable context and knowledge to the experience. The scenery is grand, spectacular and unique to Tasmania.Really fine food for and added cost.

A once in a lifetime experience This tour was wonderfull, our guide Malcom was knowledgeable about the areas we were travelling through. The Caves were a wonderful once in a lifetime experience.

Hastings Caves Jack was a fantastic guide, friendly, very informative and fun to be around. The caves were amazing, and the air walk has wonderful views. My only suggestion would be to allow extra time to have a dip in the thermal springs pool

Amazing experience! Excellent tour & company. It was a wonderful day! Great communication & pace. Terrific views! Thankyou!

Jack of all trades???????? Jack was so lovely; we enjoyed his company. He is a amazing person so calm, composed and entertaining. He was guiding each and every place throughout the whole journey for a day. He was so caring as well. He made our day with his lovely smile throughout our trip????

Tasmanian Holiday Excellent and informative guide, showed areas and taught us about the history of areas throughout the journey. Stunning views through the Hasting caves and tahune Valley.

Fantastic tour, guide was incredible. This was the best tour we have been on in a while. The tour guide Malcom was very knowledgeable and very helpful at every turn. He made sure we didn’t feel rushed, but made sure we were on time. The cave was amazing, the food was delicious and the skywalk and swing bridges were spectacular. Would recommend this to everyone coming to Hobart. 10/10 service and experience.

Wonderful day out at Tahune & Hastings Caves We had an amazing day out with Malcolm on this tour..there was amazing scenery with the caves which are over 750000 years old, fabulous nature walk through Tahune and the Airwalk which was sensational to see the scenery and Malcolm’s knowledge and commentary along the way was really informative and interesting..thank you for a great day out in nature :)

Great day with Tours around Tasmania We had a fantastic day with Huw. Port Arthur was great, Huw was very well organised with tkts etc We then went to Doolicious for lunch and Tasmania arch. The whole day didn’t feel rushed and Huw was knowledgeable and just so lovely and friendly he felt like part of our family.

Highly recommend tours around Tasmania from my first phone call to booking and paying to Huw meeting us with a smile when we got off the ship you guys made our visit to Hobart very pleasurable.

Good day from Hobart This was a full day but we’ll lead by Malcolm. Lots of driving but the Caves and the Tree Walk were worth it. Loved the bush and the cave straws.

Perfect Look of the Burnie Highlights This the perfect day tour to see further afield than Burnie in a limited schedule.
Being able to catch the next bus if needed

Beauty and peace on the edge of town. If you're going to Burnie, a "must=see" while you are there are the Emu Valley Rhododendron Gardens on the outskirts of the city. These gardens are curated and maintained by volunteers, and they have done a magnificent job. Such a beautiful, peaceful spot, with a lovely cafe to enjoy refreshments after your tour of the gardens. Highly recommended!

Put this trip on your to do list for a day trip from Hobart Excellent day trip. Our guide , Huw was fabulous. Very knowledgeable and friendly. The Hastings Caves are a must do activity and Tahune Skywalk breathtakingly stunning, walking amongst the tree tops overlooking the Huon River and surrounding native forest.

Absolutely incredible day out. The caves were amazing Absolutely incredible day out. The caves were amazing - I've never seen caves like it. Throughout the day we went to numerous areas and saw beautiful views and we managed to see so much in one day. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and welcoming - easy to speak to and ask questions.

Had a great tour with guide Huw. Went to Huonville, Hastings caves and Tahune airwalk. Highly recommend Tours around Tasmania. Great experience and staff were all very knowledgeable.

We really had fun! It was worth the money. Huw and Jess are very friendly and knowledgable. We are surely going back to Tassie and will book with you again! ????????

Excellent Huw the tour operator was excellent. Commentary was so good, he told you everything you needed to know & also about the history of the areas. Well done Huw. ????

Our tour was a great end to a wonderful holiday . Gary was a really nice , informative guide and we all had a lovely time. Its a tight time schedule but we enjoyed it all.

Worth the drive An amazing and interesting place to visit, well worth the 2 hour drive from Hobart.
The tour guide was very informative.

We had a fantastic time for 6 days in Tasmnia it’s our guide Gary from Tours around Tasmania going from Launceston to Cradle mountain and onto Freycinet.The walks at Cradle Mountain/ WineGlass Lookout was very good- moderate difficulty . Gary was very knowledgeable and walked with us all the way telling us about the history of the places, names of plants and flowers. We really enjoyed the time with Gary. Thanks to him we had a great time

Good memories After almost 7 months, I’m here to share my opinion about the tour. I was very satisfied with the service , punctuality, safety and also the good information. 5/5

Fantastic Day Out Malcolm was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and friendly. Had a great day exploring the Huon with him.

A Great Experience !! It started off well when Gary picked us up on time from our hotel. Not wasting any time, Gary then drove us to every location on our itinerary, which was well planned to showcase many beautiful sights of Hobart.

There are stairs leading to the Hastings caves however we found that they were manageable, not too steep. The guide who took us through the caves was experienced and knowledgeable about the different rock formations and crystal found throughout the caves.

The Tahune air walk was another highlight, giving us some amazing scenic views over the Huon River and surrounds, even allowing us a perfect birds eye view over the river.

The Kermandie Hotel where we had lunch was also fabulous, I had the steak and it was very well cooked and flavoursome.

Gary was also clearly very passionate about the local area and what it has to offer, including Tasmanian wood and honey - he deserves a special mention for this.

All in all, this was a great experience and I would not hesitate to recommend this tour to anyone visiting Hobart, whether it's your first time or hundredth.

Memorable Amazing experience, will never forget , highly recommended for any are and awesome photo spot great tour guide , great bus driver

Exploring Tasmania's Natural Beauty- Tahune and Huon Valley I highly recommend this tour to travelers looking to encounter the natural wonders of Tasmania's nature!
Hasting Caves was a neat experience as you travel into the depths of the earth. The cave is massive, and there's a chance for all lights to turn off, so you're surrounded in total darkness for a minute. There are also many chambers to explore. Note that there are several stairs to climb during this tour.
The Tahune AirWalk is an excellent way to see a heightened forest view. The walk is pleasant, and you're surrounded by beautiful nature the entire time. The bridges are also an incredible experience as you cross large rivers.
I recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes with a good grip, especially as the cave floors are wet.
Malcolm is a fantastic tour guide full of knowledge about the sites and history of Tasmania! He was also very punctual for the hotel pick-up.

Huon Valley Wilderness-Great Day Out Great day out, you really felt like you were in the wilderness of Tasmania. We stopped at all the places in the itinerary. First stop was the Hastings Caves and the thermal pools, very impressed with this stop, the caves are amazing, we didn’t swim it was a little cold. A great stop at the Kermandi pub for lunch at own expense. Then onto the Tahune Airwalk and the great walk to the Swinging Bridges and the river. Our tour guide was informative and gave us a great day out. Hotel pick up was really appreciated.

Great day out Long day but jam packed, our tour guide was great and got to know each person. The options through out the day were an added extra for those that might not want as strenuous day. The scenery was lovely and even in rainy weather it was worth the trip. Great day out with a balance of the drive but time in nature was worth it.

A fabulous full-day trip covering beautiful Tasmanian country. A fabulous full day trip covering a lot of country-side with a top-notch guide. Hastings Caves, thermal pools and Tahune air walk and swinging bridge was a great day.

Did a hastings caves tour and the tour guide was great! can’t recall his name, except that he used to be a teacher. He very kindly texted us to remind us to bring swimwear a day before the trip, was personable and very flexible. The tour didnt feel rushed at all. There was a personal touch to his sharings as well. recommend the trip!

Fun day! It was a fun full day. Our guide Jo was excellent and kept us entertained. Hastings Caves were amazing - the 28 degree hot spring was fun (not sure about the 28 degrees though?!?) - was a little chilly, but had a beautiful hot shower afterwards. Lunch was great. Tahune Skywalk was interesting. All in all a fun day! Would recommend it if you have spare time and want to get out of Hobart for the day.

Tour Tassie - Bad Mum’s from Melbourne The entire team was wonderful George, Jess and especially our tour guide on the day Huw he was amazing, tolerant, patient and generous with his knowledge and time.

We enjoyed our day Mewstone Winery Margy was excellent great wine and insights and the Grandewe Distillery was so much fun with lunch at Peppermint Bay we had a great action packed, well paced day!

Thank you Huw and team for our memories.

Also forgot to mention, thanks for the surprise selfie Huw it was a nice gift

We had the most AMAZING time and did 2 separate days tours with a group of 23. Everything was superb. Huw, Jack and Ben were fantastic!!! They really were such great tours and we're so glad we chose the tours we did. From start to finish, the process was easy and fun. Thank you!

Gary who was our tour guide and driver and he has an enormous amount of knowledge about local history, plants, trees, bee keeping and various other fields. He shared wealth of enormous information and knowledge with is during whole day and also very cool and calm. He didn’t mind to stop and let us see and experience at few extra stops which was amazing. He made sure that we get to enjoy whatever possible and didn’t rush to complete the tour in a hurry.

A Special Day in The Hastings Caves We had a Brilliant Day . we were collected exactly on time by Gary and then headed through stunning countryside towards Hastings Cave. At the natural springs swimming pool we had morning tea before starting out on our cave tour. A cave specialist took us through the Caves which were amazing. We heard about the history of the formation of the Caves and visited many areas including the incredible "Cathedral". Absolutely amazing! Following the Caves and a pub lunch we went through the Huon Valley to the Airwalk. A bonus here was the knowledge of our guide Gary on the trees . pointing out various species and particularly Huon Pines. We had a Great Day!

Went to Hastings Caves and Huon Valley. Gerard was our driver. He was very informative and very friendly. Fantastic day trip and a great group of people on the bus. Highly recommend this trip and this company.

Definitely worth doing Jack was the tour guide for the day and I had a great day exploring caves and hot springs and forests.
