Autobus przyjechał zgodnie z planem, kierowca i przewodnik byli uroczy i prowadzili pouczającą rozmowę po drodze. Gorąco polecam 2,5-godzinną podróż powrotną do Kunanyi/Mt Wellington.Wyświetl oryginalną recenzję: język angielskiElizabeth

Przewodnik był pouczający i opowiedział nam wiele ciekawych historii. Wskazał kwiaty, takie jak Waratahs, które różnią się od Waratahs NSW. Dobre ramy czasowe na podziwianie widoków itp.Wyświetl oryginalną recenzję: język angielskiJudith

Great scenery, and the guide was very nice and a good driver, but at times the commentary was cheesy (which is tolerable), sexist (which is intolerable) and totally negated the fact that Aboriginal people were the first inhabitants of Tasmania (also intolerable). I had to tick a box above to be able to submit this comment.Lacey
