Bruny beauty

It’s a long day but the payoffs are good. Really a combined food and scenery tour. Dave made the longer ride times interesting with his commentary

Great food, good vibes and plenty of dad jokes!

We had such an amazing day on Bruny Island! Dave was a fantastic host; warm, welcoming, accommodating and full of great stories (and plenty of dad jokes). It was a small group, which made the whole thing feel really relaxed and personal, more like being shown around the island by a friend than being on an organised tour. We saw so much, learnt a lot about the island and its history along the way, had some great food and just really good vibes all day. The weather wasn’t exactly on our side, but it honestly didn’t matter. Dave made sure we made the most of it, everything was really well organised, and we had a lovely time. Definitely worth the trip. Thanks, Dave, for such a fun and memorable day!

Bountiful Bruny.

This Bruny Island tour was ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!!!! All other tour groups we saw on the day got off their bus and walked in unguided and were left to themselves. Our tour guide took us in and introduced the staff and we got private tastings and experiences. We ate delicious local oysters and cheeses on the beach, climbed the lighthouse, had lunch at the pub, then it was off for chocolate and fudge tastings and then more cheese. Having a guide who has lived on the island for forty years meant we got to see and learn about things that other tours drove straight past. It couldn't have been a better day!

Sights and Tastes of Bruny Island

A fabulous day enjoying the sights and tastes of Bruny Island. Our guide Jimmy was second to none and went over and beyond to ensure that all in our tour group had a great experience, which we did!
