Private Cradle Mountain Tours
Prefer to travel on your own terms? A private tour gives you your own guide and vehicle, your dates and your pace — and an itinerary designed around what you most want to see. Combine Dove Lake and its boatshed, wombats at Ronny Creek, guided walks, a weather-permitting summit, and the story of Waldheim into one seamless trip, over a day or several. Family-owned since 1974, tailored and quoted per enquiry.

Private Tours — FAQ
What is a private Cradle Mountain tour?
A tour built just for your group — your own guide and vehicle, your dates, your pace and the places you most want to see. Instead of a fixed departure, we design the day (or days) around you. Tailored and quoted per enquiry — get in touch.
What can we include?
Whatever you like — Dove Lake and its boatshed, wombats at Ronny Creek, guided day walks, a weather-permitting summit, the Waldheim chalet and history, or a photography focus. We tailor it to your interests.
Can you do it as a day or over several days?
Both — a day tour from Launceston, a two-day trip with an overnight, or longer. You set the length and pace, and we shape the itinerary and handle the logistics around it.
Is it good for families or accessibility?
Yes — because it’s exclusive to your party, we can match walks and timing to children, older travellers or mobility needs, choosing gentler tracks and easy stops. Tell us your needs and we’ll design it.
Do you handle the pass, shuttle and stay?
Yes — the national-park pass, the Dove Lake shuttle and, for multi-day trips, accommodation are all arranged. Because every tour is tailored, we quote per enquiry rather than list fixed prices.
