A place of wild and beautiful landscapes

Much more than a holiday, Tasmania is an authentic and and inspiring experience: a destination to broaden your mind and make your spirit come alive with the wonders of nature. Tucked away at the far south of Australia, across the untamed waters of Bass Strait, Tasmania is rich with heritage and history, spectacular natural scenery, welcoming locals and charming townships. What more could you ask for on your next journey of discovery?

When to go
More than any other state, Tasmania enjoys all four seasons, each with their own unique attractions. Summer is festival season, when the warm days give way to long summer nights. The cooler days of autumn are a great time to sample local fresh produce straight from the farm. The cool winds blowing from the south make winter a wonderful time to experience a roaring open fire in one of Tasmania’s wilderness lodges and you’ll see Tasmania is full bloom, during the spring, with tulips and daffodils coloring the landscape.

Sojourn to some of Tasmania’s most beautiful destinations and experience a selection of the finest hotels and tours for the ultimate experience.
