I wanted to spend time at the Royal Botanical gardens. Didnt realuze if I had waited 15 more minutes for the next bus I wouldn't have wasted my short time with the city tour and would have had more time at the Gardens.

The interesting commentary on both historical and current facts about Hobart. The open air seating with shading. The manoeuvring of the bus by the driver along thin windy roads. Would recommend to any visiting

Very pleasant helpful drivers with helpful additional commentary. A pity the online booking business refused to refund my money when I accidentally left the "1" against adult that had helpfully been filled in already by them. So I booked a Seniors ticket and got billed $85.00 instrad of $40.00. Watch out, Seniors! I contacted them immediately after booking but no luck.
