A salt-scented wind greets you as the coach slips out of Hobart and the River Derwent widens like an inland sea. Early sunlight picks out the pink granite of the Freycinet range while gulls dare you to look away; later the rainforested gullies of Mt Field push a cool, damp hush around Russell Falls. Over seven days the landscape changes fast—rocky headlands, convict ruins, white-sand bays and eucalyptus forests—each day offering a different pace and a different story.

A salt-scented wind greets you as the coach slips out of Hobart and the River Derwent widens like an inland sea.

Over seven days the landscape changes fast—rocky headlands, convict ruins, white-sand bays and eucalyptus forests—each day offering a different pace and a different story.
Tasmania’s east coast records deep geological time in its pink granite and coastal sculpting, while Port Arthur preserves a sobering chapter of colonial penal history that shaped the island’s settlements. Hobart’s maritime culture and small-village charms—Woodbridge at Peppermint Bay, sandstone Richmond—speak to a living island economy built on fishing, vineyards and conservation.
Practicalities are straightforward: this small-group tour covers Hobart to Launceston with three nights in Hobart, one in Freycinet and one in Launceston, and includes selected meals, transfers and guided walks to Wineglass Bay lookout and Port Arthur. Trails range from short rainforest circuits (Mt Field) to the moderate lookout walk at Wineglass Bay—expect uneven boardwalks, rocky steps and some short climbs.
Bring layered clothing for changeable weather, sturdy shoes for mixed terrain, and a charged camera: wildlife encounters at Bonorong and marine sightings from Peppermint Bay are common if you keep quiet and patient. Move deliberately, respect signage and tide times, and you’ll leave with a clear sense of why Tasmania still feels like an island apart.
The package includes 4 nights in Hobart, 1 night in Freycinet, 1 night in Launceston at 3.5-star hotels, and specified breakfasts and lunches including a special Peppermint Bay cruise lunch.
Both are moderate: Wineglass Bay lookout involves an uphill section with uneven surfaces for 20–40 minutes; Russell Falls has accessible boardwalks and short steps through cool rainforest.
Yes—Bonorong offers close encounters with Tasmanian devils and wombats, and marine mammals such as dolphins or seals are often seen from the Peppermint Bay cruise, though sightings cannot be guaranteed.
A personalized arrival airport transfer is included; departures typically return you to Launceston Airport as scheduled in the itinerary.
