Welcome to Melbourne - the Sunshine City. Be our guest at the traditional Welcome-Dinner. Let's get to know each other. Your tour guide will be happy to answer any questions regarding your upcoming Tasmania adventure.
Saturday, Day 2
Melbourne - Devonport
Right after breakfast and the day’s briefing, we head to Torquay, the gateway to the Great Ocean Road. This legendary coast road was built by home-coming soldiers in memory of their companions. Back in Melbourne, we start our overnight crossing on the Spirit of Tasmania over the rough seas of Bass Strait from Melbourne to Devonport in Tasmania.
Sunday, Day 3
Devonport - Strahan
By sun up, the 7th state of Australia, Tasmania, is in view. A beautiful sight for those up early, and we land at the small harbour of Devonport. Riding along the coastal Bass Highway and exploring the Tasman rain forest, we arrive in Strahan. At the visitor’s center you‘ll find an exhibition about the biggest environmental protests in Australia. Or you can go for a look of the rain forest train or a Gordon River Cruise visiting the Wild Rivers National Park. There are many activities in Strahan - something for everyone!
Monday, Day 4
Strahan - Hobart
The day begins with impressive photographic opportunities for nature lovers. Passing glassy clear lakes with beautifully coloured mirror images, we reach Glen Clyde House for lunch. Besides an excellent cuisine, you will find beautiful Tasmanian art and handcraft. In the afternoon we arrive in Hobart, the second oldest city in Australia and the capital of Tasmania. Our hotel is located in the centre, and the rest of the day is free time for everyone
Tuesday, Day 5
Hobart
Today we relax on an excursion to Tahune Forest and its Air Walk through the pure air and the wonders of nature of this Tasmanian park. From the Air Walk there is a beautiful view in all directions.
Wednesday, Day 6
Hobart - Swansea
An real highlight of Tasmania is the former penal colony, Port Arthur, so we take a guided tour and a cruise to the prison islands.
Along the Tasman Highway we stop at a Tasman Devil Park and stay overnight at Swansea.
Thursday, Day 7
Swansea - Devonport
From Swansea we return to Devonport along the Bass Highway. We re-cross Bass Strait from Devonport to Melbourne by overnight ferry, the Spirit of Tasmania.
Friday, Day 8
Melbourne
Arriving in Melbourne in the morning, we check into our hotel. Melbourne, with its Crown World of Entertainment, including shopping centers, casinos and a lot more attractions, is waiting.
