About this trip
Six days circling Tasmania's coast and wilderness, from Hobart's markets to the rainforests of the west coast and the white beaches of the east. It's built around the island's nature and wildlife rather than nightlife or pace, with a small group and a guide filling in the detail as you go.
You'll cover a lot of ground — the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area, Cradle Mountain, the Bay of Fires, Wineglass Bay — but the tour keeps a relaxed rhythm, staying in motel-style accommodation and moving at a comfortable speed rather than rushing between stops.
It ends on Tasmania's human history and creatures, with a wildlife sanctuary visit for the Tasmanian devils and a look at the convict-era Port Arthur site.

Worth it if you want Tasmania's highlights without driving mountain roads yourself and enjoy a knowledgeable local guide. Think twice if you're tall, need legroom, or expect a group under 10 people.
- Multiple guides (Hadyn, Wombat) earned consistent praise for knowledge, kindness and adapting walk paces to group abilities.
- Bus seats are cramped with high backs blocking views; tall passengers struggle; you'll miss scenery unless you grab single aisle seats.
- Group size inconsistency: one reviewer expected 10 or fewer but got 20 with mixed ages and mobility, affecting accommodation and breakfast variety.
- Some sites have uneven steps without handrails; pack comfortable hiking shoes and check your mobility comfort before booking.
