Begin your day with a 2.5-hour kayaking trip through one of the world’s most scenic harbors. Led by a local guide, explore Hobart’s working waterfront from the water; gliding past historic ships, charming wharves, and stately waterfront homes. Keep an eye out for Sammy the resident seal, and pause mid-paddle to enjoy locally caught fish and chips served directly to your kayak from one of the city’s floating fish punts.

In the afternoon, board the MONA MR-1 Fast Ferry in the exclusive Posh Pit section, complete with complimentary drinks, canapés, and access to a private deck as you cruise up the Derwent River. On arrival, climb the 99 steps to enter MONA (the Museum of Old and New Art) Australia’s largest private museum. Explore its provocative and wide-ranging collection at your own pace, from ancient artifacts to contemporary installations. After your self-guided visit, return to Hobart via the ferry, enjoying one last look at the dramatic river and mountain scenery.

Today you’ll enjoy a scenic full-day transfer from Hobart to Freycinet. Departing Hobart, travel in comfort through the picturesque Coal River Valley with the option to partake in a whiskey tasting at Sullivan’s Cove Distillery (additional cost). Pause in the historic town of Richmond for morning tea and a look at Australia’s oldest bridge, then continue along Tasmania’s east coast, known for its cool-climate wines and coastal charm. Stop at local cellar doors for wine tastings, enjoy a gourmet vineyard lunch, and sample regional specialties like farm-fresh oysters or small-batch spirits. The drive offers a mix of rolling countryside and dramatic sea views, with curated stops along the way. You’ll arrive at your accommodation in Freycinet by late afternoon, with the evening at your leisure.

Freycinet National Park is home to dramatic mountains, secluded bays, white sandy beaches and abundant birdlife. The park occupies most of the Freycinet Peninsula and looks out to the Tasman Sea from the eastern side and back towards the Tasmanian coastline from the west.

Enjoy a full day to explore Freycinet National Park. Today is yours for the taking: choose from a variety of complimentary activities, making the day as action-packed or laidback as you want. Visit an oyster farm and enjoy an oyster tasting, partake in a guided beekeeping experience, visit a Tasmanian devil sanctuary and interact with the elusive creatures, go on an informative guided hike to learn about the flora, fauna, and history of the region, or sample wine or gin at a local vineyard or distillery. For the adventurous, set out on a mountain biking, kayaking, fishing, or golfing excursion, or even partake in cooking or mixology class.

Enjoy your last morning at Freycinet, either partaking in another activity or just enjoying the lodge’s 5-star facilities. Afterwards, you’ll journey 2.5 north to the town of Launceston, where the rest of the day is at your leisure.

Launceston is known for its elegant architecture, award-winning restaurants, and proximity to the Tamar Valley – Tasmania’s premier wine region – where cool-climate varietals like Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay can be enjoyed in scenic, riverside settings.

Say goodbye to Tasmania and head to the airport for your flight home or onto your next destination.
