Start your trip with a visit to the photogenic Tasman Peninsula for a short walk and views over the Southern Ocean. Explore one of Tassie's tourist hotspots, the Port Arthur Historic Site.

Take the opportunity to view the site from aboard a cruise boat on the harbour, then unwind on the return to Hobart via Richmond.

Day 2 - Hobart to Bicheno
Head for the beaches today via a short stop at the historic town of Ross. At Freycinet National Park, sink your feet into the pristine white sand and admire the world-famous beach at Wineglass Bay. Finish the day in sleepy Bicheno, home to the Little Penguins who return to their rookeries each night upon dark.
Overnight - Bicheno (Breakfast / Lunch)
Day 3 - Bicheno to Launceston
Soak up the coastal scenery along one of Australia's greatest journey's from Bicheno to St Helens. Stretch your legs and revitalise your senses with a peaceful beachwalk at the Bay of Fires. Visit the rainforests and waterfall at St Columba Falls, before heading into the pretty colourful city of Launceston.
Overnight - Launceston (Breakfast / Lunch)
Day 4 - Cradle Mountain, Lake St Clair
Travel to one of Tasmania's stunning mountainous regions, the world heritage listed Cradle Mountain/Lake St Clair National Park. Immerse yourself in the rainforest surrounds on one of the many walking trails in the park. Return to Launceston at the end of a great day.
