Please note this itinerary can be combined with the Travelling Naturalist's Eastern Australia Tour.
Tasmania is Australia's only island state, an archipelago of more than 300 islands sitting just 240 kilometres (150 miles) south-east of mainland Australia. It is a stunning heart-shaped island of lush green valleys, uncrowded towns and villages, and unspoilt coastlines.
More than 40 per cent of the Island is protected as national parks and reserves, and Tasmania’s isolation from mainland Australia has ensured the survival of many plants, animals and birds that are rare, or even extinct, elsewhere in the country.
Tasmania's marine animals are among its most impressive wildlife, ranging from magnificent southern right whales surging past our east coast to delicate sea dragons drifting near forests of giant kelp. You can cruise beside some of the highest sea cliffs in the southern hemisphere in search of seals, dolphins and albatrosses, and many easily accessible beaches offer up their secrets at dusk, as little penguins waddle in from the ocean beneath clouds of shearwaters returning to their burrows.
So come and join us at the edge of the world for a truly unforgettable experience!
Thursday 13 October 2011. We suggest that you arrive in Hobart the day prior to the start of the tour if at all possible. Inala can provide discounted rates for accommodation if required.
