The Tasmanian harbourside capital of Hobart combines heritage charms with modern pleasures; and is the gateway to a long list of natural treasures across the island-state. Steeped in history and framed by dramatic sea cliffs, the nearby Tasman Peninsula is home to historic Port Arthur and the spectacular Three Capes walking track.
Follow the coast east to take in some of the island state’s most scenic drives including Maria Island, the Freycinet Peninsula and the beautiful Bay of Fires. Enjoy fabulous fresh seafood, luxury lodgings and some of Tasmania’s most exhilarating hikes along the way.
Fringed by sandy beaches and lined with scenic bushwalks, Bruny Island offers a rich bounty of delicious local produce and wonderful native wildlife.
Launceston is the launch pad for foodie trails in the tasty Tamar Valley, famous for its delicate sparkling wines; and golfing getaways on the windswept Barnbougle coast and remote King Island, famous for their challenging links courses.
The wonderfully wild Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park provides opportunities to walk alongside wombats and dine with Tasmanian devils, hike dramatic untouched terrain and fly-fish in hidden mountain streams.

The days ahead are spent gazing up at the spectacular Breaksea Island sea caves or out from stunning mountain-top lookouts, wandering along the untracked sands of Stephens Bay Beach or hiking through ancient rainforests, cruising the Huon-pine lined bends of the Davey River or picnicking in pristine wilderness. Spot dolphins playing in the bow waves and chance a glimpse of the endangered orange-bellied parrot.

We have been blown away by everything - hotels, food, people, golf, wine - the list is endless. You did an amazing job
Planning a 7 week trip is daunting enough without the complications of COVID cancellations, rebookings, and closures. Yet every connection, every transportation detail, every accommodation, every meal, everything was flawless.
From our arrival in Sydney .. to our last stop in Queenstown .. we will carry with us the best memories of our trip and all of your efforts. The incredible private boat tours .. the bespoke wine tours with the best guides .. our accommodations .. and the excellent itinerary and pacing, made for a perfect trip.
We can't thank Southern Crossings enough for making this trip all, and more, than we had imagined. You allowed us to see the best of your countries: the people, the beauty, the culture. Five stars, a blue ribbon, and a gold medal to everyone at Southern Crossings!
Your country, its people and your team could not have made us feel more welcome.
Thank you for all the special moments you enabled us to experience.
