I had been doing research on the various options of traveling through Tasmania. UnderDownUnder tours seemed to provide the greatest tour for our needs, and at such a great price! I'm so glad we chose this. We had an amazing guide, Evan, who showed us so many things. He was incredibly knowledgeable and funny, and really knows his coffee! We were definitely the 'seniors' on the tour - three couples in their early 70's - but never felt segregated in any way. 'The Kids,' as we called them (all 20 and 30 somethings) were all so fun and interesting. We had great accommodations in each town we visited, and I know 'the kids' enjoy their hostel experiences as well. I would never hesitate to recommend Under Down Under to anyone who wants a rich experience in Tasmania.

Keagan was phenomenal as our tour guide. I learned tons of history about Abel Tasman and how Tasmania got it's name and some of it's former history as Van Diemens land. We learned how most cities and towns got their name (spoiler alert, copied and pasted from UK cities and towns) and learned way more than I ever thought I'd learn about mining and the rocky geologist. If you are a fan of dolomite, you're in for a treat. Keagan was super knowledgable, super friendly, and enthusiastic the entire time. I've been around the world from Kenya to Iceland to the Cook Islands and more and I would hire a Keagan every single time if it were an option. Thanks Keagan, thanks Anthony and thanks Under Down Under for the fantastic experience!

Absolutely amazing tour and experience! Picked up at the start of the tour and immediately made feel very welcome by our exceptional tour guide Tim. We visited so many incredibly beautiful and culturally significant locations and at all locations Tim was able to provide any detail you could have asked for. Walks were clearly explained and alternatives were always provided for those who didn't want to climb stairs or for those who wanted a more adventurous walk - do the walk even if you end up a little red-faced, the sense of achievement and the spectacular scenery are worth it! Tim's narrative in the bus on the drives between locations was well informed and helped me to fall more and more in love with Tasmania. While the tour is essentially non-stop, there was also opportunity to stop and just to relax and enjoy the view. The motel/hotel accommodation was always clean and the added bonus of an electric blanket after a cooler day was always appreciated. Included meals were fresh with a number of options available and multiple courses on offer on an evening. On the days where we fended for our selves we were given plenty of opportunity to stop and pick up supplies, including at the southern most vineyard in Australia and plenty of ice cream stops. The whole experience was exceptional and made even better by Tim. The tour group of likeminded travellers who wanted to see the raw beauty and history of the beautiful island added to the experience. If I could go back right now and do the tour again I would not hesitate in doing it all again and following the other path to discover more beauty.

Tour is very well organised and our guide Justin was great. He was very knowledgeable and made sure we were looked after and kept the tour fun

This was an active and very comprehensive tour and the guide - TIM - was excellent for his punctuality, driving, commentary, attitude, and resourcefulness. Very satisfied

Had a cracking tour guide, Evan, who gave us a great six day tour around Tasmania exploring scenic panoramas and fascinating wildlife. A warning that this tour is a lot of driving from place to place with not much hiking, but that being said, you do get to explore more of what the island has to offer. Had a really great time and would recommend to anyone looking to explore Tassie with not much time and wanting to cram as much in as possible. Thanks for the great time Evan!

Had an amazing week in Tasmania, we covered a lot of places. Tom was a fantastic guide and there were options for different fitness levels each day. We had a great mix of ages in the group which made the whole experience even better.

Looking for something to do in your spare time ? As a seasoned traveller from Perth, I decided that it was time to visit Tasmania, it was never on my top 10 places to visit. So I booked the Ultimate 10 Tour on a whim. Was I wrong, Tasmania is just unbelievably amazing, with its breathtaking natural landscapes, the sheer beauty of the National Parks, wildlife I have never seen before in their natural habitats such as the Tasmanian Pademelon, Bare-Nosed Wombat, Wallabies just to name a few. Tasmania is also steeped with history with its Port Arthur Historic site and saving the Franklin River. I will let your Tour Guide fill in the missing gaps ! The tour itself is well balanced with a mixture of outdoor nature loving activities as well as visiting the town of Richmond for some retail therapy ! The aspect that appealed to me most about this tour was that it was the only tour that pretty much covered most of Tasmania in 10 days. A tour is not a tour without a tour guide/driver, right? About Justin our tour guide/driver. Well, he was also amazing - always on time, patient, just the right amount of talking while driving, gave relevant information about how the following day would look like and facts about each location, he was thoughtful and would go out of his way to ensure everyone was happy. He was the glue that made our group / tour a memorable one ! Thanks Justin, you're a star.

It was time to explore Tasmania, so I compared various options to see the land down under, including self-drive choices and using my own vehicle. For the sheer simplicity, and cost effectiveness, I chose a small group 10-day tour, offered by Under Down Under Tours. The itinerary was extensive and appeared to cover all the best highlights you could possibly see in 10 days. Mother nature was the clear star on this tour; providing stunning walks through ancient rain forests, and many promontories which showcased the rugged Tasmania coastline. To describe all the magnificent experiences provided would fill pages; for me, the cruise through Macquarie Harbour and the Gordon River, the panoramic view from Wineglass Bay look-out, Cradle Mountain and the walk around Dove Lake, in the shadow of the mountain, deserve special mention. And, a special mention of our driver and tour guide Justin. Justin worked tirelessly to ensure that all participants on the tour enjoyed what was on offer. His commentary covering the history of the regions we were traversing and the special little anecdotes he provided made the trip just that much more interesting and educational. His enthusiastic participation certainly enhanced the enjoyment of the tour. A great tour of Tasmania with a driver/guide who cared, you could not ask for much more.

Justin our tour guide was a blast !...went above and beyond to ensure our trip was amazing. 10 guests in a 21 seater bus was an added bonus. We were busy each and every day...so much so that we longed for a day of rest !...Justin's knowledge of each and every stop/site was outstanding. Can't recommend this tour highly enough

We did the Tasmania in 6 Days: the Major Highlights and Attractions tour in March, 2024. This was without a doubt the best tour I have ever been on - due almost entirely to our guide Justin. This tour was not my first "rodeo". He is very personable and worked his butt off to make the trip as easy and enjoyable as possible. If you are looking at a tour in Tas or Australia proper, delay your trip and/or do whatever is necessary to get on a tour with him as guide. If Under Down Under sets a tour through hell and Justin is the guide get on it. I will. Justin's enroute timing with explanations of area history, animals and vegetation was superb. I think he has total recall. He would tell us a story about the area or relate a little history and give us good breaks from such from time to time. His commentary alone was worth the price of the trip. That said, had I rented a car and driven around for 6 days, trying to visit all the cool spots, I would have come away with about 5% of what I received with this tour with Justin. General notes: We opted for a private ensuite room and they were all fine. We had 21 folks in our bus from all over the world. About 11 of the folks opted for hostel accommodation and there were no complaints that I heard. I have never before done an Under Down Under tour and I am not Justin's brother or close friend. Had to add that! The guy just did an amazing job for us! GO HAWKS!

We just did the Famous Five tour of Tasmania. It was fantastic. We had Tim as our Guide and he was very knowledgeable about plants, wildlife, towns etc as we toured Tassie. He was extremely helpful to the group. We had a mixed group of ages (21 to 78) and from many different countries. Solo travellers , couples and mates on the tour. Everyone got on and had a few laughs. There’s lots of walking, waterfalls and views as well lots of animals to see. There is So much to see and enjoy here. Motel accomodation is clean and good on this tour, not 5 star and that’s ok, it’s clean and comfortable. If I had one small gripe it would be that food in Strahan is either a rip off $42 a main at Hamers or The Kitchen ( sorry that’s Sydney /Melbourne Prices not a town of 700 people ) or barely average food at Molly’s or the Fish and Chips. So maybe tour operators need to reconsider this town. So for me Strahan was a disappointment. Other reviewers have mentioned this as an issue. Otherwise this was a throughly enjoyable and great way to see Tasmania with an excellent guide.

Going to Tasmania at the beginning of my travels was a big mistake. After this tour it can't get any better anymore. This tour is just simply amazing! Had the best time of my life with a sparkly, wonderful and cheerful group of people, our always enthousiastic tour guide Evan and the beautiful landscapes Tasmania has to offer. As a backpacker, I wasn't sure if booking such a tour would be something for me. But since I don't have a driving licence myself and really wanted to explore Tasmania, I gave it a try. And boy, little did I know! Within a couple of days the group becomes your little family. The group was really diverse; couples, solo backpackers and friends. We've got to see a lot of Tasmania; beautiful hikes through nature, the Tasmanian devil, a wonderful play and amazing beaches. Evan, our tour guide, made sure everyone was having a great time. By giving us lots of information, showing us around, giving different options based on different levels of fitness and especially by looking after everyone during our walks by walking and chatting (and joking ;)) with everyone. If I could recommend this tour? 1000% yes!

Great tour. Awesome tour guide and tour group. Amazing places. Breathtaking waterfalls. Beautiful scenery. Heaps of fun. Options to suit various needs / fitness/ abilities. We were extremely well looked after by Evan our tour guide who gave us interesting and entertaining commentary and lots of opportunities to experience the beauty and wonder of Tasmania’s natural landscape, wilderness and wildlife.

I have never been on a long tour before but at 74, I decided with my wife that this would be the best way to see Tasmania and I would not have to do any driving or organise anything. With a small group of 21 in the bus and a comprehensive itinerary what could go wrong. As it turned out nothing other than picking up a common cold on the plane and a puncture in front right tyre of the bus, which turned out to be part of the adventure anyway. Our tour guide and driver Keygan would be the most knowledgable and interesting person I have ever met in this role. A native Tasmanian he has an intimate knowledge of the flora and fauna, history, not just since European settlement but of the Palawa people going back thousands of years as well as contemporary modern Tasmanian issues and lifestyle. His knowledge also of the geographic and geological features of the landscape is awesome. Anecdotes of every location flowed easily as we rounded yet another corner with a fascinating commentary interspersed with comedic notes and stories ranging from indigenous culture to bush ranger antics. Overall it was awesome. Thanks for the experience.
