The clouds started to part for us, and we saw a beautiful view. The Mona Museum was very interesting.

Mt Wellington & Mona trip
Shiran_J, Dec 2024
It was a little cloudy and there was a bit of rain when we reached Mt Wellington, but the view was really great , Mona was worth the trip , as they say you either like it , or hate it .
Best air to breathe…best view to see
Karl_H, Dec 2024
Firstly Mt Wellington is just great,ultra clean air…bit breezy…half way down the mountain there is a small walk,you may be lucky to see funnel web spider dens and jack jumper ants…you are in Tassie so embrace all it offers …
A great trip to learn about Hobart.
Ruta_R, Dec 2024
Our bus driver Mark provided us with clear instructions and lots of information along the way with some great jokes. It was a fun day.
Response from Host, Dec 2024
It is great to hear you had fun with Mark on board our Mt Wellington with MONA tour. And it is great to hear you enjoyed his jokes! (he'll be very pleased with that!)
Great tour
Monika_T, Dec 2024
Great tour to Mt Wellington in the morning and MONA in the afternoon. Ticket includes the ferry to and from MONA and we were able to change the return ferry time to suit us.
Excellent.
Danica_H, Oct 2024
An excellent tour by Dave to Mount Wellington. We had a clear day so had excellent views. The MONA museum is like marmite. Love it or hate it. I personally liked it as it’s very unusual and would recommend that you visit. All in all an excellent day!
Great tour experience .
Robert_N, Oct 2024
Great tour with great tour guide 'Baz' which happened to be his first. The whole tour from start to finish was well executed which made for a most enjoyable time. It included pickup at accommodation and great communication from guide and the travel company Experience Tasmania. Mt Wellington was a must visit along with a most interesting visit to the Mona. Would highly recommend.
No matter what the weather Mt Wellington was Beautiful
Cameron_D, Jun 2024
Despite the clouds and mist restricting the view over Hobart we were great with a surreal ice covered misty landscape and the Driver was excellent guide as well !!

Columbus_D, Apr 2024
The view from the top of MT Wellington was sooo amazing! I would recommend not to missed it if you happened to visit Hobart.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Thank you for your feedback and recommendation for our half day Mt Wellington Ultimate tour. We agree it's a must! Thanks again.
Mt Wellington good....MONA poor.
Graham_G, Apr 2024
The bus trip to the top of Mt Wellington was good and the driver, Colin, was excellent in every respect. That was the best part of the activity unfortunately. The ferry trip to MONA was good. The best part of our MONA experience was seeing the actual space: how it had been carved out of the sandstone. As for the content of MONA it was largely pretentious and at times crude rubbish. We were very disappointed and we would not recommend the activity to anyone.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Thank you for leaving us a review. It is great to hear that you enjoyed your morning spent with Colin on the Mt Wellington tour. It is disappointing to hear that MONA's exhibits were not to your taste and agree that the world class architecture sure is worth seeing. Thanks again we appreciate your comments.
Beautiful country side awful art experience
Angela_S, Mar 2024
We loved the Mt Wellington tour, the bus driver guide was excellent. The MONA was over rated, I was not impressed by their art range or the fact that many exhibits were closed or you had to find them ( digital guide was poor) and then que digitally, the stair wells smell of cat pee 🤢 it also thought it was rude to make us walk up the 99 stair when there was a beautiful tunnel entrance we could have gone through not nice to do at midday ina heat wave and then we had to walk downstairs to the entrance to get a drink of water 😰
A must do when in Hobart
Brian_J, Feb 2024
Both the Mt Wellington tour and the Mona visit were memorable. Although it was amazingly cold up on the mountain, it is something you have to do when visiting Hobart, also the visit to Mona was something that we will never forget, but hard to put into words,

Mt wellington and Mona, was a nice ride with heaps of info. The boatride to Mona was nice as well, with loads of bar products available. Mona itself was really nice, with a lot of food and bev options as well.

The view from Mt...
Margo_T, Jan 2024
The view from Mt Wellington The launch trip to Mona The building was great and the staff very helpful
Mt Wellington/MONA
Dean_T, Jan 2024
Overall the tour was fantastic. However, the bus we had experienced mechanical issues at the start of the trip. Leaving us with a 30 min wait for a new bus and a reduced time at Mt Wllington/MONA. I understand that this is most likely a one-off experience and applaud the staff for their professionalism in providing a new bus in a timely fashion. I was also offered another trip the very next day, though, due leaving I was unable to grasp this opportunity.
Spectacular views and fantastic art
Saideep_K, Jan 2024
Guide was very good and she drove very safe to the top of the mountain and it is Avery good trip. MONA was interesting and a feast to art lovers
Nice tour to nice places
Ivo_R, Dec 2023
Both Mt Wellington and MONA are a must in Hobart. The tour was well organized and the driver/guide Damon was of excellent.
Great option to spend one day in Hobart
ALVARO_S, Dec 2023
Great option to spend one day in Hobart and come back to the city for dinner in a local restaurant..
Weather was kind
DLM, Dec 2023
Great tour up to mount wellington and back. The weather was kind to us and we got some great photos from the top. Our guide was excellent. The visit to Mona was interesting though I would recommend that you download the app ahead of time and make advance reservations for some of the activities..
