I have just returned from a 5 day photography tour with Luke to the Tarkine in Tasmania. I have also completed a day tour with Luke to Mt Field. Luke's photography tours are fantastic! Highlights include... *patient, knowledgeable tuition from a talented photographer- I have learnt so much from Luke! *excellent communication throughout the booking process *our tour was extremely well organised, with plenty of opportunities for photography in different situations (macro, astro, landscape etc) *comfortable accomodation, excellent food *nothing was too much trouble - Luke went out of his way to ensure the tour group not only developed their photography skills but also had a fantastic holiday at the same time. I'd highly recommend Luke's tours and would happily answer any questions anyone has!

Jarrod was on time, he was a kind and knowledgeable gentleman. The van was clean and Jarrod was very accomodating. All the activities were super fun.

Seven Mile Beach Gerroa has some of the best learn to surf waves anywhere in the world, due to the flat sand surface below the waves, which cause them to roll in slowly and break gently.

Great fun and good value. Rusty and his team showed the kids all the techniques to get them surfing. Was impressed with the safety aspect. There were a broad range of ages, and they handled everyone really well. We took our son and his cousin and they loved it. Will be back again for sure.

I recently completed this tour and I could not rate it highly enough. I was unable to hire a car and I signed on for this tour as it ticked many of the boxes in relation to the places I wanted to see. Our tour guides, Tim and Ian were excellent, and I found out so much about the places we visited that I could never have found out travelling my myself- history, geology, zoology - our guides were an amazing source of information. The highlights were the National Parks - Gordon- Franklin, Lake St Clair, Cradle Mountain, Freycinet etc. Tasmania has a unique landscape, and we were given an opportunity to explore it. We had a lovely group of 18 people of mixed ages and nationalities, and that was another highlight for me. I enjoyed the backpacker experience, but if you are looking for five star accommodation this tour is not for you. We bought our own food, but were given the opportunity to buy fresh local oysters, amazing ice creams and Tasmanian baked goods. Even when it rained, our days were full of interest. Thank you particularly to our guides Tim and Ian who made sure that everything ran smoothly. They were always patient, informative and pleasant.

Amazing view on the mountain Wellington and the trip is flexible depending on the weather of the day and the tour guide and very friendly. There are many lovely animals in the zoom including Tasmania devil and Wombat, and Richmond is definitely worth visiting, and if we could stay longer at these spots would be even better.

This excursion was awesome. Our guide, Keygan, did a great job describing the sites and sharing the history. Great story teller of Hobart’s past! We drove through Hobart (we also had a brief tour of the streets and old homes on the way back to ship) on the way to Borongo Sanctuary. Our guide stayed with us at the sanctuary and pointed out the animals and talked about them. The sanctuary exceeded our expectations. We had plenty of time to wander about with the animals - especially the Roos. We went to Richmond where we had lunch (on our own). Quaint town. Then on to Mt Wellington - great views. Then to Cascade Brewery for a sampling. We had wonderful personal service and plenty of time at each stop. Highly recommend iWander Tasmania for your visit to Tasmania.

I have done a few tours during my stay in Hobart. Some of the tour guides were just meh and you knew it was just work for them. It was merely driving people around and off they go. But Alex was different. It felt like he was showing the place to his family! Wasn’t rushing things and sent text reminders before the tour. Very personalised! He took time to tell us bits and pieces throughout the trip. And walked with us even after all that driving! Immensely enjoyed this trip. And I think it was really cheap for what it was. Great value for money!

On our full day Wine Tour we visit 5 of southern Tasmania’s best wine producers. You'll have the opportunity to meet some of the winemakers and taste a range of award winning, hand crafted, cool climate wines. Tastings may include world class sparkling wines, crisp cool climate white wines and velvety, seductive reds. During vintage you'll see grapes being processed and wines fermented, throughout the year you'll see grapes growing in the vineyard and wines maturing in barrel rooms. You may be lucky enough to try wine direct from the tanks or the barrels, depending on the time of the year and what the winemaker is working on that day. Expect a day packed full of wine tasting, tours, conversations and even some local cheeses thrown in for good measure. Please note detailed tour destinations are an example only. Sometimes we have to change the places we visit on our tours dependant on industry demands and availability. Rest assured - you'll always be going to the tastiest places!
