We thoroughly enjoyed our day on Bruny. Guide Jacob was excellent keeping the day rolling and providing lots of information with just the right mix of humour and detail. It was a full day with great variety in experiences. Lunch was delicious and the cheese tasting a highlight. Highly recommend.

So much packed into one day. It was amazing. So much food , drink and samples included. The island is so pretty. Oh and our bus driver was informative as well as entertaining. Highly recommend this tour.

We were on this tour with Alex as our tour guide. We enjoyed our day thoroughly, the itinerary didn't feel rushed, and Alex peppered the trip with stories and his humour. Will recommend.

Driver Nicholas was excellent and told us more about the area than would normally be the case. Fantastic knowledge.

10/10 experience, so much fun and met a lot of interesting people on the tour.
