Fantastic exploration of the East Coast. Very good mix of walking and boat trip breaking it up in the middle. Great variety of activities. Not sure what it would be like in poor weather. We were blessed with great weather. Highly recommended

An excellent 5d walking/exploring experience in Tasmania. A mix of nature and history interleaved with some fantastic scenery and hiking on the coast. Fantastic guides who made the trip exceptional. Some challenging hiking but real fun had along the way. We will highly recommend this trip to others.

An outstanding snapshot of eastern Tassie. Awesome tour guides leading you on epic adventures. The small group size is perfect for everyone enjoying themselves and there never being too much waiting around. Considering it? Just do it!

A wonderful week exploring East Coast Tassie and making new hiking friends! The hikes got the heart (all the stairs!), mind and soul pumping with stunning scenery. Spotting Dolphins and seals at Cape Raoul was a highlight!

Tasmania East Coast
Our tour was absolutely fantastic 10 / 10 for our group.
From our first meeting, the fabulous day trips we did to the last goodbyes we couldn't fault anything.
The admin and booking has a lot of room for improvement. Information given was confusing.
Our guides were amazing, if anyone is lucky enough to get Stacey and or Will you will have the most incredible time and come away with a wealth of knowledge and the best experiences.

An excellent introduction to the coastal walks of Tasmania's East Coast. A good physical challenge, but not overly so.
