'Lisa Gershwin has created a magical place for her fascinating presentation on things that glow. The cosy cave with twinkling lights will transport you to the kinds of spaces where you would find the fascinating creatures that Lisa knows so much about. I was spellbound by the information Lisa presented in an interesting and knowledgeable way with plenty of humour and warmth. Highly recommended.'

'What a wonderful mystery to explore and Lisa is the best guide,
with her bubbly passion, friendly storytelling and accessible explanation of the science.
A magical cave for even more magical imagery.
Warm hospitality- even home-made cookies- and a real surprise to top it off.
Take home a new awareness of the wonders at your feet and afar.'

'This was honestly our highlight to our visit to Tasmania. Lisa was not only a wealth of knowledge, she was so much fun and easy to chat with, and her passion for all things that glow made the experience so special. The information was presented in such an engaging way, through personal stories and anecdotes, humour and interesting tales, and made us excited to go and find our own glowing things out in the wild! Comfy chairs, delicious biscuits, generous tea and coffee, an exceptional host, and engaging information all made it a night to remember. Highly recommend for locals and visitors alike.'

'This experience was a highlight for my first trip to Tasmania. Lisa-Ann I am so grateful for your generosity, knowledge, energy and those cookies you baked were divine. Thank you! I think suitable for anyone interested in life...nature is amazing.'

'Lisa’s enthusiasm for bioluminescence, biofluorescence and all things that glow is infectious. Her depth of knowledge is such that she will likely have a great answer to any question you may have but is also able to explain things simply enough that anyone of any age and science background (or lack thereof) can understand the concepts. After an evening with Lisa I feel compelled to hunt for sea sparkles and chase the aurora.'

Perhaps described more easily with poetry than science, Tassie's glowing phenomena are the most wondrous part of our night life!
