I took the 7 day trip in July 2019. Without any doubt it was the best experience I had. It was travelling alone, was my first backpack trip and I am glad I chose Jump tours for Tassie trip. The travel group was diverse and all were great. Special shout out to Loz (Lorraine Upton)????, who was our tour guide. She was very energetic and wonderful person and not to forget with lots of humour ???? . The itinerary is very well designed to cover all major spots in the island. The tour guide had complete knowledge about the locations and we also stopped at some extra spots to taste chocolates and cheese. July month can be quite cold and it was raining on most of our trip. So it's surely not a good time for sunshine lovers. But nevertheless I got my profile picture at Marion's lookout Cradle mountain. ????. Cutting it short, I had the best time exploring the beautiful island.
