About Us
We look forward to welcoming you on one of our walks
A Unique Experience
Hobart Walking Tours is much, much more than someone pointing out some buildings and telling you about dates and timelines.
We are professionally trained guides, story tellers and local hosts with one focus: to give you an experience of Hobart you will find hard to stop talking about.
While we can offer driver guide services, what we love the most is walking and sharing all the knowledge we have.
When you take a walk you travel slowly. You absorb more, interact more, experience more. You stop and run your hands over the intricate stone work of our beautiful heritage listed buildings, crafted by skilled convict stonemasons. Walking allows you to linger longer at sites of great drama, to reflect at sites of great sorrow, to follow the route of corruption and discrimination, adventure and achievement against the odds. Walking brings you into the depth of the city, hidden away places and into the footsteps of those who made the history.
Walking gets below the ‘tourism’ and welcomes you to the real Hobart.
Lisa Bryant
Business Owner
Hobart Walking Tours was started in 2010 Robyn created the content for all of the tours from her own in-depth research and extensive knowledge of Hobart’s colonial past and contemporary culture.
Hobart Walking Tours has certainly grown in the last eight years!
Lisa Bryant is now the owner of Hobart Walking Tours. After completing at Rosny College with Certificate III in Tourism as Student Of the Year, Lisa began training as a tour guide.
Growing up in Tasmanian gave her a passion for this beautiful island and the history that is hidden in every area of the state. Which is how she was drawn to being given the opportunity to show visitors and locals our beautiful city from the footpath.
While working as a tour guide for Hobart Walking Tours, Lisa also became the Office Manager and undertook her Certificate IV in Travel and Tourism. When the opportunity to become the owner presented itself, Lisa could think of nothing better than to become the owner of a business she loves!
A skilled communicator, Lisa has a passion that comes through on every tour and knowledge to help guests to make connections between what they learn on the tour and what they already know. As well as giving information and tips that visitors are curious about.
