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.

Hey there!

I’m Laura, the smiley face you’ll spot as soon as you walk through our office door. With a serious case of wanderlust, I’ve done it all —lived abroad, cruised the seas, island-hopped, and even cruised around South Africa on the back of a motorbike. But let me tell you about my ultimate love affair Africa!

For three incredible years, I bounced between Australia and South Africa, exploring every corner of the country, often on the back of a motorbike. I’ve sat with elephants for hours, watched big cats hunting, and slept under the stars in the middle of a game reserve. My heart belongs to the wild, and if you’re an animal lover like me, trust me, Africa will capture yours too.

Nothing lights me up more than helping people experience this magic. The more I learn, the more excited I get about sharing these adventures with you! Whether it’s a dream safari, a relaxing cruise, or an off-the-beaten-path escape, I’m here to bring your travel dreams to life.

Let’s make your adventure happen!
