Tasmania Cruise Highlights

Vineyards & Wine Tasting

Tasmania is home to some of Australia’s finest wineries, and in recent years has made a name for itself as a premier wine-producing region. Visit one of Tasmania's many vineyards for a tour and wine tasting, or enjoy a delicious meal paired with local Riesling, Pinot Noir, and other famous local varietals. You'll find that the wines of Tasmania are a perfect complement to the island's cuisine, from organic meat and fresh seafood to locally produced cheeses and honey.

Tasmania is well known for its abundant wildlife, including the elusive Tasmanian devil. Take a nature walk or safari through one of Tasmania's many national parks and spot kangaroos, wallabies, echidnas, and other local fauna. Trek to the beautiful Myrtle Gully Falls near Hobart, or explore St. Clair National Park for sweeping views of this pristine wilderness area. Venture to one of Tasmania's smaller offshore islands to look for penguins, seals, and dolphins in their natural habitat.

Aboriginal Heritage Sites

Tasmania is home to some of Australia's most important Aboriginal heritage sites with a deep connection to the past that blends with the island's modern culture today. See rock art dating back 20,000 years at the Tasmanian Aboriginal Centre, or explore the shell middens and stone huts at the Port Arthur Historic Site.
