Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Recently completed the taste of TAS tour with my husband. Had a fabulous time exploring TAS from Hobart to Launceston. We were lucky enough to travel with a great group of people who were a lot of fun. Our guide, Jo was fantastic, very knowledgeable and very motivating. Thank you Jo for a great trip.

What a wonderful experience. We had a great group of people and a great guide, Pablo. Pablo was very informative and helpful all along the way. Accommodations were good and the sights were magical. A great way to see the red centre.

We saw great scenery lovely towns visited but the timing of this tour should always allow for a visit to Salamanca Markets in Hobart on Saturday one of the biggest markets in Australia

Unfortunately, due to logistical constraints, it is not always possible to time this tour so guests can visit the Salamanca markets. Thank you for choosing Waratah Adventure Tours, and we hope to welcome you back soon.

Our bus was from a third world country. No suspension, no room, no amenities. Shocking. What a waste of money this trip was. Our guide was not a guide. He didn’t know anything about where we were going and when we asked questions he told us answers that were incorrect. Giving them 1 star is too much.

Hi Liz,

We have recently returned from the ‘Taste of Tasmania’ tour operated by Waratah Adventure Tours but sold by a third party and yes we also travelled on ‘Bargain Betty’ from Bargain Rentals but she was clean and reliable and her appearance was appropriately explained. A 24 seat Toyota Coaster does not have very much leg room but there were numerous stops at which we were able stretch our legs and take in the wonderful sights that Tasmania had to offer.
Our guide and driver Scott personally contacted us on Day 2 (the first full day in Hobart) when introduced himself and warmly welcomed us to Tasmania was great value. He was knowledgeable, humorous, friendly and generally terrific to talk to and ask for help if needed. He was also with us all the way. We would definitely recommend him for whatever tour he does.
The accommodation provided on this tour was 1st class and would recommend them to those who travel independently.

We did a 5 day Alice Springs to Uluṟu via Kings Canyon ( through TripADeal). It was fantastic- our guide Graeme was the best. He entertained us with lots of dad jokes and puns but the best thing was his sharing of information about the area. I learned a lot, met some great people and overall had the best holiday. THANKS

WORST TOUR EVER. The bus said Bargain Tours but should say “The Pits Tours! . The bus was falling apart and leg room was minimal. Our guide David was no guide - did not explain a thing as we were driving along and no thought for people who could not walk far at stops. He was more interested in doing his own bush walks - and making us the paying tourists - wait until he returned up to 2 hours late. The scenery was spectacular but it would have been helpful to know what we were looking at. One star is too much.
