An
island of natural beauty
Pristine wilderness reigns supreme on this
fascinating island, where National Parks and
World Heritage Areas abound. Experience
Tasmania's splendid isolation, which has
preserved a unique colonial history and
captivating convict past.
Separated from the Australian
mainland by Bass Strait, Tasmania has developed
its own distinct identity. Here, you can indulge
your senses as you breathe in the clean, fresh
air. Your palate will be tempted with such
delights as lobster, salmon, full-flavoured
cheese and a spectrum of fruits. Travel through
dramatic landscapes and discover an extraordinary
world of nature. The island's jagged mountain
ranges, mighty rivers, deep rainforests, remote
beaches and city streetscapes will compete with
each other for a place in your memory. Our King
Island Add-on will be the perfect way to
complement your holiday. Who better to show you
the real beauty of Tasmania than the people who
know it best?
So sit back and relax in first class
comfort, as you explore the spectacular scenery
of an island steeped in culture and natural
beauty with Australia's No.1 Tour Operator.

yourself.
