Had a very informative tour with Mick. He’s passionate about everything Hobart. Loved hearing his stories. Would highly recommend taking one of his tours.
It's lovely to hear Mandy you both enjoyed the tour with my guide Michael exploring our beautiful Salamanca & Battery Point during autumn. Enjoy your remaining time in Hobart. Best wishes, Peter Salamanca Walk
The history and views of interesting and beautiful properties around Salamanca were delightful. Peter is very knowledgeable about the area and the walk itself is very gentle in slope.
Thank you kindly for your feedback and comments. I am very pleased you had a lovely time exploring Battery Point's neighbourhood on a beautiful Hobart autumn morning. Enjoy your remaining time in Hobart. Best wishes, Peter
We have been to Hobart numerous times previously and never done a Walking Tour before this week. What a great decision it was to book Peter‘s Walking Tour of Salamanca and Battery Point. Our group of six thoroughly enjoyed being shown many little hidden gems around Salamanca that we would previously have walked right past and not noticed or missed visiting. Hearing the many stories and information about so much of what we saw, together with the photographs that Peter had to show us of what it looked like in the old days compared to today were absolutely fantastic. Our whole group thoroughly enjoyed our 2 1/2 hours walking around Hobart with Peter and all agree it was an excellent way to spend the morning. Peter provided us also with a list of recommended restaurants and pointed us in the direction of the pub that we had booked to go to for lunch. If you are looking for a great walking tour of Salamanca and Battery Point area, do yourself a favour and book Peter’s Walking Tour… You won’t be disappointed.
Thank you Lyn for your lovely feedback, I am very pleased you all had a great time exploring Battery Point and the wharf area on a beautiful Hobart autumn morning.
