Fabulous winter tour, but wrap up!!
Jane_C
, Aug 2022
A very good tour. We went on the last tour at three pm. Advantage was no drop offs and seamless. Informative recording supplemented by a knowledgeable bus driver.
Note: if you go upstairs in winter you will need several layers, gloves and a warm hat. I froze myself unnecessarily!!
Response from Host , Aug 2022
Dear Jane_C thank you so much for taking the time to leave your feedback, it is very much appreciated by all of us at Red Decker! We are so glad you had such a great time on the Double Decker, even if it was a little chilly up the top! We look forward to seeing you when you are next in Hobart!

Anyone who wants to see the main features of hobart and to get a feel for their history. Easy to find all stops just make sure you read times the bus departs and arrives at each stop. Do this on your first or second day and you’ll have a good idea of Hobart
Response from Host , Jul 2022

Excellent way to get around Hobart at an affordable price. Very good commentary from our driver taking us to all the historic sites of Hobart. I highly recommend this tour to first time visitors to Hobart.
Response from Host , Jul 2022
Totally worth it!

This trip offers mountaintop views of Hobart, a walk through stunning rainforest with massive old growth eucalyptus trees and a chance to see quintessential Australian wildlife up close and personal. One of the highlights of the trip was our guide. He was an absolute fountain of knowledge and I walked away feeling more educated about everything from Tasmanian history, to the science behind capillary action, to the fate of the dinosaurs 65 million years ago; picture Mick Dundee with a university degree across a multitude of subjects. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone as it includes a little taste of many of the best things Tasmania has to offer.
Response from Host , Jul 2022
Dear Brian_K, thank you so much for taking the time to write this amazing review. I am so glad to hear that your trip up Kunanyi/Mt Wellington on our bus was a fantastic one! Tasmania really is an amazing and beautiful destination, and I am so glad our driver was able to provide you with all that knowledge. Thank you and we hope to see you in Hobart again soon!
Great way to see Hobart city

It was great and very informative. Great way to start your trip to get your bearings. Unfortunately it was a bit hard to her the bus drivers comments btwn the recorded commentary which was a bit disappointing b/c what he said we very interesting. We were on the top deck so maybe that why.
Response from Host , Jun 2022
Helllo Rebecca_S,
Thank you for your tour feedback We are pleased you enjoyed your tour and you found it informative. In regard to not being able to hear the drivers commentary I do apologise. I have flagged this with our maintenance team and they will look into this for you as a matter of priority. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Many thanks.
Kind regards,

nothing how could you call it hop on hop off when if you hoop off you have to wait 2 hours for next bus???
Response from Host , Jun 2022
Hello roy_w,
Many apologies our tour did not meet your expectations on this occasion. Our timetable is reduced (4 x departures/ day) during May - September visitation to Tasmania is traditionally lower than our traditionally peak travel time October - April. Great news is we are certainly reviewing this at the moment for this time next year. Thank you for your honest feedback in this regards to this. This is most helpful.
We are currently the only hop on hop off service operating 7 days a week in Australia during this COVID recovery phase and for the smallest capital city in Hobart we believe this is most definitely a positive! Our tours and times are planned a year in advance. If more visitors are coming to Tasmania and requesting more bus departures then we welcome this greatly.
We offer full tour refunds for people that are not 100% happy with their tours. Please contact our office to arrange this. We hope to see you in Hobart again soon and I am sure that if you hop on our tour again your experience will be a more positive one.
Many thanks.
Kind regards.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it 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. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
