The whole day was very thought out There was lots to see but is still a very relaxed day which makes you enjoy your time more. The value for money with what you get I think is amazing Honey tasting so many to try and very yummy The oysters, cheese and bread was very tasty Lunch I had shoulder of lamb which just fell apart very well cooked Chocolate and fudge tasting was very good Extra cheese tasting at whisky and cheese stop also taste amazing Light house and view points was amazing Overall the whole day is a very worth whole day out if you want a wide variety of things in one trip Our guide today and his son were both amazing and did a amazing job of making sure the day ran smooth

Great nicely balanced day of activities sightseeing. Our guide Grant offered a wealth of knowledge to us and ensured all guests had a rewarding experience. Great lunch at Hotel Bruny and the lighthouse tour were the standouts on the tour. The local produce and tastings were excellent. Would highly recommend the tour to anyone wishing to get a feel for what Bruny Island has to offer.
