Queening Around Bruny Island 👑🥂🚙 👑 What an absolutely stunning day queening around Bruny Island with John! My friend Sarah and I did the Bruny Island tour and honestly couldn't recommend it enough. John was an absolute gentleman, incredibly knowledgeable about the area and just genuinely lovely to spend the day chatting with. And can we talk about the classic Mercedes?! 😍 What a way to see Bruny! John opened the doors for us everywhere we went, so apparently chivalry is NOT dead when John is around 😂👑 We genuinely felt like queens for the day. The tour was such a beautiful mix of everything Bruny does so well: amazing local food and wine 🍷🧀, gorgeous scenery and some stunning nature stops, including The Neck. We loved every place John took us and never felt rushed. The sun even came out and the infamous Tassie wind behaved itself for us ☀️😂, so it really was a spectacular day all round. One of the things we loved most was having a private tour rather than being part of a big group. It made the whole experience feel relaxed, personal and really special. Thank you, John, for such a fabulous day. We had an absolute ball and would recommend Tasmanian Private Tours in a heartbeat! 🚙🥂👑❤️

A Personalised Tasmanian Tour with a Passionate Local Guide We had a wonderful private tour with David. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and tailored the day perfectly to suit us. Adding an extra stop at the lavender farm or chocolate factory was no trouble at all. David’s genuine passion for Tasmanian history was a real highlight and made the tour even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a personalised and memorable Tasmanian experience.

An unforgettable way to experience Tasmania Our day with Tasmanian Private Tours was absolutely incredible and easily one of the best parts of our visit to Tasmania. We travelled with two young children, and John made the experience comfortable, relaxed, and enjoyable for the entire family. Everything was thoughtfully planned, and we were taken to spectacular places that we never would have found or experienced by ourselves. John’s knowledge of Tasmania, attention to detail, and flexibility made the tour feel personal rather than rushed or overly structured. He was wonderful with our children and made sure everyone was comfortable throughout the day. John is also an exceptionally safe and skilled driver. We could simply relax, enjoy the scenery, and take in everything Tasmania has to offer while he handled all the planning, driving, parking, and timing. Tasmania is an amazing place, but experiencing it with Tasmanian Private Tours made it even more special. Anyone visiting Tasmania should book a tour with this company. The service, local knowledge, and overall experience were outstanding. We would absolutely use Tasmanian Private Tours again and highly recommend them to families, couples, and anyone wanting to see the very best of Tasmania.

Great day from beginning to end. We recently had two full days in Hobart and decided to book Tasmanian Private Tours for a day exploring the Derwent Valley. John was prompt in replying to our initial request and very accommodating with changes we proposed to the itinerary. We had fabulous experiences at Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary, the historic Salmon Ponds near New Norfolk and Russell Falls before returning to Hobart. The whole day was timed beautifully to give us plenty of time at each location and we enjoyed a delicious lunch at the Salmon Ponds. We felt we were in careful and experiences hands all day. If you have a day or two in and around Hobart do not hesitate to ask for John's expertise. Coincidentally, our day with John was the only dry time we experienced in Hobart!!!

Exceptional private tour We did two days of tours with John. The Port Arthur and curated Coal Valley Wine tour. Both days had fantastic itineraries which were at a good pace for our family. John’s knowledge of Hobart and the surrounds made for great conversation on the very comfortable drive. This was well priced for a truly private tour. You could really tell John loves what he does and Tasmania. Thank you for showing us around and we look forward to hopefully returning and doing more exploring.

2 day custom tour in Hobart for 5 adults - highly recommended! My family and I booked a 2 day private tour with John on our short trip to Hobart and boy were we glad we did! John was fantastic with his communication in the lead up to the tour, and was able to tailor the tours to our preferences. The tours over both days went very smoothly - we saw Bruny Island, Port Arthur, the Tasman Peninsula, and Mt Wellington. We were 5 adults in his 7 seater Mercedes… a very safe and comfortable ride. John made the trip stress-free for us… making it the perfect holiday. Would recommend this company for anyone looking to explore Tassie!
