We didn’t get picked up on time, and we didn’t know what was happening, other than the driver didn’t turn up and that another was coming in. We then got told we would be picked up about hour or so later, and that we would be given lunch. We didn’t get told where we were going or anything, no communication from the driver Dave, we had to ask him, he also didn’t given any commentary on the way. We wore masks but he didn’t. We missed out on going to the lighthouse because of the late start, which was a disappointment. We got to the cheese tasting at 332pm but the kitchen closed at 330pm so missed out on that as well.

Was able to organise hotel pick up. Andrew our guide from Tassie Tours took us on the most beautiful trip of Bruny Island seeing so many special sights and enjoying the special treats the island has to offer. Absolutely fantastic experience, a great day from start to finish, awesome value!

Bruny Island was certainly an experience. Started the day off going to the neck to see a very pretty view before heading to adventure bay for lunch at a rest stop/beach before looking for white wallabies. Then off to the lighthouse, oyster restaurant, honey shop, Bruny Hotel for lunch and the cheese making place. It was a lovely day out albeit it an expensive one doing it as a tour.
