Had a great time on this tour with our guide Natalie! Natalie is an amazing tour guide and always accommodating the needs of everyone in the group (there was a big range of ages on the tour). All of the stops on this trip were great it's hard to pick a favourite! I would recommend going to optional activity The Ship That Never Was in Strahan.

We just finished the Super 7 tour of Tasmania. It was outstanding. Our group of 21 included a variety of ages from 20's to 70's (I'm 70) with the majority being young. We enjoyed our group very much. Each day offered a new adventure with some history, nature, and a few choices of hikes to accommodate different fitness levels. We were fortunate to have excellent weather throughout the tour. The motels we stayed in were good enough. Many in our group stayed in hostels. The bus was a bit cramped but okay. The real key to this tour was our exceptional guide, Evan. His infectious personality provided a relaxed atmosphere among the group. We laughed a lot. Evan did a fantastic job of providing appropriate information at exactly the right time. He advised us correctly about the difficulties of the various hikes and what to bring with us each day. Evan knows where all of the coffee shops, bakeries, and toilets ("lemon-squeezing stations) are in Tasmania. He is also knowledgeable about the history, flora, and fauna of Tasmania. Evan has so many great stories to tell. This is an energetic tour. Some individual hikes last 3 to 4 hours. It might have been too difficult for us a few times except for Evan's advice and help. Somehow he has the ability to look after everyone in the group even when they are doing different activities or the same activity at a different pace. Amazing! We are so glad that we toured Tasmania with Under Down Under and recommend it to you.
