    Tasmanian nature at its best

    Sangam, our driver and guide, was one of the nicest people we ever met. The visit to the rainforest was especially moving, and could even have merited more time. The wildlife sanctuary is essentially a zoo but, for people like us who had limited time, it was a way of seeing many Tasmanian animals that we would not otherwise have seen.

    Self guided

    This is not what I expected. This is a self guided tour. You must be dressed appropriately for hiking a beautiful park. It is much colder at the park than it is in Hobart.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback and for joining our tour. We’re sorry to hear that the experience was not what you expected. Our tour is designed as a self-guided experience to give guests the flexibility to explore at their own pace, but we understand this may not suit everyone. We also appreciate you highlighting the weather conditions. Mt Field can indeed be much cooler than Hobart, and we will make sure to emphasize this more clearly in our tour information so future guests can be better prepared. Your feedback is very valuable to us, and we truly appreciate you taking the time to share it. We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a more suitable experience in the future.

    Great day hike!

    Our driver PK was very engaging during the 1 hour plus drive to the park. The hiking trail is clearly marked. Easy hike for anyone.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind review. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and hope to welcome you again on another tour soon.

    A Day Tour to Mt Field and Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hobart.

    How much does A Day Tour to Mt Field and Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary cost?

    +

    Prices start at $136 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hobart usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does A Day Tour to Mt Field and Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hobart is not rushed.

    Is A Day Tour to Mt Field and Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hobart, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule A Day Tour to Mt Field and Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is A Day Tour to Mt Field and Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book A Day Tour to Mt Field and Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hobart can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hobart and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does A Day Tour to Mt Field and Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hobart within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Hobart?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Hobart experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include kunanyi/Mt Wellington Explorer Bus- Return Tour (2.5 hours), Full-Day Guided Bruny Island Tour from Hobart, Day Tour in Mt. Field, Mt. Wellington, Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary and Richmond. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Hobart?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Hobart?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in A Day Tour to Mt Field and Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary?

    +

    Included: Bottled water; Entrance fees; and Government fees. Not included: Breakfast; and Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    +
