DAY 1

Bay of Fires, Bicheno & East Coast

This morning we head north-east to admire the amazing memorial carvings at Legerwood and taste the cheesy delights of the Pyengana Dairy Company.

In the afternoon it’s time for the highlight of the day – the stunning Bay of Fires. With some of the whitest sand and clearest water you’ll ever see, take your time to explore the beach or maybe take a swim. If you like oysters you can purchase some of the best nearby at St Helens.

In the evening we arrive at our accommodation in the seaside town of Bicheno. As darkness falls head to the beach to see the little penguins come ashore to nest.

Overnight – Bicheno

DAY 2

Wineglass Bay, Freycinet & Kate’s Berry Farm

This morning there’s an optional activity ($25pp) to check out animals at East Coast Natureworld, a popular wildlife sanctuary. We arrive at feeding time for the Tasmanian devils, wombats, kangaroos, koalas and many more animals that call the park home. (Extra cost)

Now it’s time to pack a picnic lunch as we see another Tassie icon – the sparkling waters of Wineglass Bay in Freycinet National Park. I hope you had your Weetbix because this is a walk to get the heart pumping, with the reward of fantastic views from the lookout.

This afternoon we travel down the scenic Great Eastern Drive back to Hobart with a stop at Kate’s Berry Farm at Swansea – a great afternoon tea stop.

Tour finishes in Hobart at 6:00 PM.

FAQ

WHERE DO THE TOURS START?

Our Tasmania tours start in Hobart and Launceston. Days of departure vary through the year, check the tour page to work out which departure is right for you.

SHOULD I BOOK A FLIGHT TO ARRIVE THE DAY BEFORE THE TOUR STARTS?

Yes that is the easiest way to do it. Stay in Hobart or Launceston the night before the tour and we can arrange a pickup at your accommodation or nearby. If you must fly in on the day the tour begins we may be able to organise a special airport transfer to allow you to join the tour that day, this costs extra is only possible for flights arriving before 8:30am.

CAN I FLY OUT OF TASMANIA ON THE FINAL DAY OF MY TOUR?

Yes, for tours ending on Friday or Sunday any flight departing at 7:30pm or later from Hobart is OK. If your tour ends on Wednesday, it is only possible to fly out of Launceston, with a flight departing at 6:30pm or later. Airport dropoff can be organised at extra cost.

WHAT'S THE WEATHER LIKE IN TASMANIA?

That depends on where you are! First of all, it’s not that cold! It only snows on high mountains in winter, never in the cities and towns.

The east coast is the dry, sunny, warm side of the island. Annual rainfall in the east is 600mm - less than half the annual rainfall in Sydney. Daily maximum temperatures in summer (December to February) are between +20 to +30 degrees celsius. In winter (June to August) daily maximums are between +12 to +18 degrees celsius.

The west coast is mountains, rainforest and untouched wilderness. Annual rainfall in the west is 2000mm, helping to create the stunning wilderness of Cradle Mountain, Lake St Clair & Mount Field. Daily maximum temperatures in summer are between +18 to +25 degrees celsius. In winter the mountains look spectacular with snow on top and daily maximums are between +5 to +15 degrees celsius.

WHAT SHOULD I BRING?

Comfortable shoes to walk in, warm clothes for the mountains, light clothes for the beach, a rain jacket or umbrella, a towel and bathroom items (soap, shampoo etc). You do not need to bring a sleeping bag, sheets and blankets are provided.

ARE MEALS INCLUDED IN THE TOUR PRICE?

No, to help ensure that our tours remain the most affordable in Tasmania we leave food choices up to you. Dinner time gives you the opportunity to try local restaurants or if you’d like to cook your own, cooking facilities are available at all of our accommodation.

DO I NEED TO PAY FOR MY TRIP IN FULL AT THE TIME OF BOOKING?

Yes, our tours are very popular due to their great features and low cost, so we can only reserve seats once we’ve received payment in full.

HOW MUCH LUGGAGE CAN I BRING?

As our Lap of Tassie and Tassie MAX tours start and finish in the same place, we’d appreciate it if you can minimise luggage by leaving some of it in your hostel/hotel in Hobart or Launceston, bringing only those things you need for the tour. Most hostels and hotels in Tasmania offer storage facilities. Please limit the luggage you bring on tour to one backpack or suitcase (maximum 20kg) and one day pack or handbag per person.

ARE THERE ANY EXTRA CHARGES I WILL HAVE TO PAY?

No! Unlike other companies we do not charge extra for national park fees or fuel surcharges! We offer some optional extra activities that cost extra, you can choose to participate in these or not.

ARE THERE ANY DISCOUNTS?

Seriously guys, our tours are already hundreds of dollars less than other Tasmanian tours, because we’ve created them to be an excellent low cost option for everyone. We live on an island and that makes all our costs higher than they are in Sydney and Melbourne, but we work very hard to keep our prices as low as possible!
