Hobart is a compact city sitting in the foothills of majestic Mt Wellington. It offers a rich colonial heritage mixed with natural beauty Here, one can walk the galleries at the Museum of Old and New Art (Mona) that house the the largest private collection of art and antiquities in the world, sample beer from Australia’s oldest brewery at Cascade, or drive to the top of Mt Wellington for stunning views of the D’Entrecasteaux Channel and surrounding bays. This city is a combination of fine dining establishments and a rich history where incomparable landscapes are within driving distance.

Tamar Valley
Launceston sits in the middle of Tasmania on the Tamar River It is a lush, productive region that attracts some of the nation’s best chefs and winemakers At its heart is a wilderness garden featuring the dramatic whitewater Cataract Gorge. To its north and east, the Tamar Valley Wine Route provides wine lovers with many renown vineyards, such as Ninth Island, Josef Chromy, Pipers Brook and Jansz.
North East
In the North East of the state, the coastal township of Bridport boasts one of Australia’s top golf courses – Barnbougle Dunes – that overlooks long stretches of white sand beach.
South and South East
Back in the South of Hobart take a ferry to Bruny, the island off an island, off an island - a haven for food lovers and explorers of wild trails, alike. Journey further south east to the historic town of Richmond and down to the Tasman Peninsula with its spectacular rugged coastline, geological features and the World Heritage listed convict sites at Port Arthur. Down further, just 2 hours from Hobart, experience Cockle Creek which is as far south in Australia as one can drive. And then pull on hiking shoes to walk the South Coast Track to South Cape Bay - the true bottom of Tasmania...any further south requires a sturdy boat, with Antarctica being the next landfall.
