“I deeply believe that when I die I want to have made a substantial difference to the world.”
Australian Tourism Legend Robert Pennicott and his team of passionate local guides have been sharing Tasmania with travellers since 1999. Their award winning journeys highlight the spectacular scenery, wildlife and produce of southern Tasmania: Bruny Island Cruises, Tasman Island Cruises, Bruny Island Traveller, Iron Pot Cruises, Tasmanian Seafood Seduction and Wineglass Bay Cruises.
