Super 7 Day 6 Night Tasmania Tour Hobart Return

Leaving Hobart, your adventure through Lutruwita/Tasmania begins at Mount Field National Park, part of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area.

Stroll among towering eucalyptus trees and marvel at the cascading
beauty of Russell Falls. Traveling through the Western Wilds, take in the breathtaking landscapes of Lake St Clair—Australia’s deepest freshwater lake—and the rugged Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park.

Along the way, uncover Tasmania’s rich mining history in Queenstown before reaching the harbourside village of Strahan, where we’ll settle in for the next two nights.
Overnight: Strahan

Today, choose your own West Coast adventure. For those seeking an active experience, join a guided walk through lush temperate rainforest and across the vast, windswept Henty Sand Dunes. Prefer a more leisurely pace?

Take the optional Gordon River Cruise (additional cost), which glides through Macquarie Harbour, visits the historic Sarah Island, and enters the World Heritage-listed wilderness, where you can stroll among ancient Huon pines.

In the afternoon, we’ll visit the rugged Ocean Beach—Tasmania’s longest stretch of sand—and breathe in some of the cleanest air on earth.
Overnight: Strahan

Cradle Mountain National Park is one of Tasmania’s most iconic destinations and a UNESCO World Heritage Area. We will explore its impressive alpine landscapes and glacial-carved wilderness while keeping an eye out for wombats, echidnas, and other native wildlife.

Choose from a range of world-class walks, whether it’s the challenging climb to Marion’s Lookout, the scenic 6km Dove Lake Circuit, or a leisurely stroll to the historic Boatshed.

After soaking in the beauty of the park, we’ll journey north to Launceston, stopping in the town of Sheffield, famous for its striking murals.
Overnight: Launceston

In Launceston, explore the lovely Cataract Gorge, a natural haven along the South Esk River just minutes from the city. This picturesque reserve is an excellent spot for spotting wallabies. Heading to the East Coast, we’ll stop for lunch in the fishing town of St Helens before continuing to Larapuna/the Bay of Fires.

Here, you’ll gain insight into the deep spiritual connection the Palawa people have with this land. Walk along the Bay’s pristine white sands, where turquoise waters contrast beautifully with the vibrant orange boulders.

Heading south along the coast, tonight, we’ll stay in the coastal town of Bicheno, home to the little penguin.
Overnight: Bicheno

Freycinet National Park, located on Tasmania’s East Coast, is a peninsula known for its extraordinary beaches, coastal forests, and striking pink granite mountains. This nature lover’s paradise offers a variety of hiking options, from the iconic Wineglass Bay Lookout to a rewarding trek down to the beach.

For those seeking a challenge, the climb to the summit of Mt Amos provides breathtaking panoramic views, while a leisurely coastal walk to Honeymoon Bay offers a more relaxed experience.

We also visit the Cape Tourville Lighthouse, where sweeping views of the Tasman Sea showcase the rugged beauty of the coastline. Our day concludes with a scenic drive back to Nipaluna/Hobart along the picturesque Great Eastern Drive.
Overnight: Hobart

Visit Tasmania’s best-known conservation and wildlife sanctuary, Bonorong. You’ll meet a variety of Tasmanian wildlife, such as quolls, birds, wombats, kangaroos, and Tasmanian devils. Then, we’ll take our time to enjoy the heritage village of Richmond. We’ll travel through the winery region of the Coal River Valley on our way back to Hobart and continue to the city’s immense nature playground, Mount Wellington/Kunanyi. Wellington Park is known locally as “The Mountain” and is loved for its fern glades, eucalyptus forests, dramatic rock columns, and boulder fields, with superb walking tracks and spectacular lookouts. We’ll show you some of our favourite places on Kunanyi as our guide helps you appreciate the treasures of Wellington Park. Tonight, unwind in one of the city’s historic pubs or restaurants.

Overnight: Hobart

Discover the rugged coastal scenery and epic convict history of the Tasman Peninsula/Turrakana. As Australia’s best preserved convict settlement, Port Arthur Historic Site is a UNESCO World Heritage-Listed cultural attraction. You’ll learn about Tasmania’s harsh convict history as you explore the expansive grounds and preserved ruins. At Remarkable Cave, we’ll take you on one of the best short walks in Tasmania to experience the impressive coastal sand dunes of Crescent Bay. Finally, at Tasman Arch in Tasman National Park, you’ll appreciate the impact of the powerful Southern Ocean on the highest sea cliffs in Australia. We’ll return to Hobart in the afternoon, as our tour of Tasmania comes to an end.
