The mountain goat, lol was the best tour guide. Knew his stuff, lived there his whole life. Was a very Intimate tour. Lots of hiking but we were even able to squeeze in a couple extra locations. Views were worth it! I speak highly of this tour to anyone who asks about what my favorite part of the trip was.

Graham and Trevor were our guides for The Big Three. Both were very personable and professional. We got super lucky with the weather at Cradle Mt./Dove lake. Would recommend to all.
A great way to explore Tasmania!

Pick up and drop offs to hotel door or very close by and very prompt. Tour guides were fab… very knowledgable not just about the areas we were visiting but the whole island. Kudos to Graham for supplying us all with rain coats; cloths and hats for the Cradle Mountain tour we would have hit very very wet otherwise. I would suggest anyone doing this tour to take a spare pair of clothes with them just in case! Overall very good value for money and throughly an enjoyable three days !
Overall a good experience

Decent way to get from Launceston to Hobart and the big 3, guides were friendly and knowledgeable. It was raining pretty much constantly during our first two days (cradle mountain and wineglass bay) but we still had a good time, the views were awesome despite the rain and fog. We also got to see lots of wombats which are really cute. The third day to Port Arthur is the only reason we didn't want to give the tour five stars. I wish we could spend more time in Port Arthur instead of the Unzoo (which was okay but unremarkable) and Richmond (lovely town but by the time we got there most shops have already closed). The Port Arthur ferry was also really underwhelming.
