Tasmania’s eastern coastline presents an unvarnished beauty that unfolds across rugged granite shores, crystalline bays, and windswept beaches. Premier Travel Tasmania’s 5-day small group tour zeroes in on this spectacular stretch, blending immersive natural encounters with rich historical and cultural narratives. Starting in Hobart, Tasmania’s capital, this itinerary moves northward through some of the island’s most compelling landscapes.
Day one begins with a warm arrival in Hobart, followed by a guided city tour that highlights its colonial heritage, including well-preserved Georgian architecture. A convivial welcome dinner sets the tone for the adventure ahead. The next day’s journey leads eastward to the Freycinet Peninsula, home to the iconic Wineglass Bay, where the coastline arcs in a perfect crescent of white sand against turquoise waters.
