This was by far one of the best tours I have ever been on in my life
This was by far one of the best tours I have ever been on in my life. Our guides Sam and Huge were so much fun and make the experience that much better. We managed to see some dolphins while we would out on the water and even though it had started raining by the end of our tour, it didn't matter much because it was just an incredible experience. Lunch was also delicious. Would highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Hobart!
