Doing what: Full-Day Sailing Cruise from Hobart

Had a fantastic trip aboard this comfortable racing yacht with fabulous crew who let us take the helm whilst keeping a weather eye on our course!
Met some lovely people . Mark and his crew Luke and Phil thanks so much for a great day out. Don't hesitate .....great experience .

A great experience. The skipper and owners were informative and a pleasure to be with. Great company, good hospitality and would recommend it to anyone with an interest on the water.

I didn't go on the trip but my friend did and as someone with a mobility issue she found she was well cared for, not rushed and the information provided well presented and interesting.

Whilst we were happy to be able to visit our favorite chocolate factory we have previously been able to go through the factory which is much better. They now show you a video presentation on the making of chocolate due to OH and S concerns. We would only suggest this tour to other tourist if they have ample time, as there are a lot of tours and places to visit in Hobart that would be better to do.

Doing what: Seaplane Tour over Hobart and River Derwent

Starting with making a booking for the seaplane tour, everything went very smoothly. I had a call from the tour operators within minutes of the booking, and we had nothing but extra friendly service from all the team. The office staff made us welcome, and Jethro was a great pilot and tour guide.

The tour was great, very informative. Cadbury needs to give away more chocolate.

Not what I expected. It would be best if we could see inside the factory from glass windows.

Had a wonderful time. The crew were great, the food a most welcome surprise, the music our style. So what more could we ask for..I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to have another unique experience in Hobart.

A great day out with such variety. The Cadbury representative delivering the presentation was very informative and interesting to listen to. Bonorong Wildlife Park was excellent - the people working there all very helpful and friendly

Doing what: Full-Day Sailing Cruise from Hobart

We had a very enjoyable and relaxing day out on this beautiful yacht. The weather was against us on that particular day but Mark and Luke made sure that it was a memorable trip. The scenery is amazing, the food tasty and the company excellent. The best day out in Hobart.

Unfortunately our tour started badly, the bus waited over half an hour for guests who never arrived cutting our time at the chocolate factory very short. The bus commentary and factory presentation were very good, but there was no time for a coffee in the cafeteria. The returning ferry was quick, with no commentary and the access down to the ferry landing from MONA does not cater for wheelchairs.

More time needed in Wildlife Park. Perhaps break over lunch could be reduced/incorporated into tour. All three activities workth doing.

"Tour" is just a presentation -speaker was excellent- then a chance to shop in their outlet. The local bus company mixed up our tickets and did not have us down to do the cruise back. They fixed it tho.The cruise was the same trip on the same ferry we caught from MONA the day before. Not worth $70+
