Tasmania is the smallest and only island state in Australia. You will enjoy a close encounter with unique Australian wildlife, experience early colonial history and stay at the very best lodges in the State.
Tour Itinerary
Day 1: Hobart. Hobart is attractively located beneath Mt Wellington and straddles the Derwent River. There are many fine Georgian buildings in the city.
Day 2: Orford. A boat trip out to Maria Island, where a wide variety of native animals and birds are to be found, is well worthwhile.
Day 3-4: Freycinet. A beautiful coastal ride with a ferry trip across to Freycinet Peninsula and two nights in magnificent Freycinet Lodge.
Day 5: St Helens. A very scenic coastal road with no major hills.
Day 6: Scottsdale. Passing through impressive stands of eucalyptus and giant ferns, we stay at a comfortable B & B.
Day 7-8: Launceston. A rest day brings an opportunity to visit some local vineyards in the Tamar Valley.
