What to expect

Over the next two days, a small coach departs for the four-night touring loop: you'll reach Freycinet for a night, guided walk at Wineglass Bay, then continue to Mt Field and Cataract Gorge with walks at each, before returning to Hobart. On day six you travel to Launceston for one night. The tour concludes the following morning; all guided walks and coaching between towns are led by your group's driver-guide.

Good to know
This tour suits anyone wanting a structured overview of Tasmania's major coastal and mountain scenery without self-driving. It's pitched at all fitness levels, though walking at Wineglass Bay and Port Arthur involves moderate terrain—let your operator know about mobility concerns beforehand. Expect small-coach travel with around 15–20 passengers. Winter (June–August) brings shorter daylight and occasional alpine snow. Meals outside breakfast and the three stated lunches are your own cost. Travel insurance is strongly recommended but not included. Airport pickup is personalised; check your booking confirmation for pickup details.
