Tasmania

An island packed with adventure, flavour and charm


Wild, delicious and wonderfully unique

Australia’s captivating island state of Tasmania is a place where nature and culture collide beautifully. Best known for its wild landscapes, abundant wildlife (hello, Tassie devil!), and fascinating history, Tassie is also a foodie’s paradise. Picture yourself sampling local wines, sweet strawberries fresh from the farm, delicious cheeses and mouth-watering seafood from friendly artisan producers or bustling markets.

Tasmania’s compact size, paired with easy roads and stunning scenery, makes it perfect for a self-drive adventure. Give yourself at least a week to wander through towering forests, explore pristine beaches, delve into historic sites and marvel at majestic mountain scenery. Fancy something more adventurous? Paddle your way through secluded bays by kayak, tackle exhilarating white-water rafting, or lace up your boots and trek through spectacular wilderness trails.

Looking to mix it up? Glide down tranquil rivers on relaxing cruises, enjoy the thrill of guided 4WD tours, or even take to the skies in a helicopter for views you’ll never forget. And don’t miss Hobart’s iconic Mona, a world-class museum that’s put Tasmania firmly on the global art map.

"Monique compared flight options for me and came up with the most suitable for my needs. She also told me that HoT now does less expensive hotels. Then she researched those and advised me on handy locations in the three places I wanted to stay on the Gold Coast. She prepared an itinerary promptly and advised me on the most suitable travel insurance too."

I am an adventure seeker with a passion for exploring the world and experiencing everything it has to offer. I'm always on the lookout for new and exciting experiences and have a particular love for small group tours and adventures. Whether it's cruising in the Galapagos Islands or exploring new cities, I love the intimacy and camaraderie that comes with traveling in small groups. 

When I'm not adventuring, you can often find me at live sports and events, cheering on my favourite teams and soaking up the excitement of the crowd. Or I'm equally at home soaking up the sun during a beautiful island beach holiday.  

I also have a love for cruising and have had the opportunity to explore new destinations such as the Mediterranean, the coastlines of Spain and Portugal, the Rhône and Saône Rivers in Southern France, canal boating in England, and cruising across the Tasman. All while enjoying the comforts and amenities of life on the water. 

One of my favourite pastimes is people watching whether it's from a cafe in Paris or on the streets of New York. For me, there is nothing more fascinating than observing the unique and diverse cultures of the world and the interactions of the people within them. I'm always seeking out new experiences and adventures, driven by a deep curiosity and a thirst for knowledge and understanding.
