    The four stars are for The Tour Group Under Down Under Guide Anthony, who was fantastic. He was funny, knowledgeable and made us feel welcome. The tour was great "Boot Camp for Seniors", had a ball, saw so much of stunning Tasmania, did a lot of walking in brillant scenery, learnt a lot about Tasmanian and its history and meet some great people. Tour Radar as the middle man, could improve their communication and provide information in a more timely manner. Next time, I will look to go direct with the actual tour company.

    Asked on May 24th, 2025

    In the brochure I was unable to find the trip notes mentioned that give the pickup points in Hobart for Day 1 of the trip. We would like to book the pre-tour accommodation/ day 10 accommodation in the same hotel we will stay in during the Hobart part of the tour. How many people in the group (November 24th departure)? What are the drop off points on the last day and what is the cost of the Hobart airport drop off?

    what are the expectations for clients with mobility issues on this tour

    Tour Details
    Travel Support
    • On The Go ToursOperatorWritten April 2025

      The Best of Tasmania tour goes at a Medium Pace and but does have a physical ability of easy. We do require all of our clients to be able to walk possibly 5-7km per day or maybe more. The tour does have walks in the rainforest with potential uneven grounds or hills/steep slopes. You would be required to get on and of the bus unassisted and be able to carry and maneuver your own luggage. So I think it would depend on what mobility issues you have and how much assistance you need whether this tour would be right for you.
