Tasmania Holidays


australia
Perhaps Australia’s best kept secret, Tasmania’s natural beauty is simply spectacular, with the dramatic coastline of Freycinet National Park, lofty peaks of Cradle Mountain and one of the planet's last great wildernesses.

More surprising still, you’ll also find moving history in Hobart and Port Arthur, endless sandy beaches and some of the finest dining on the continent. You may even meet the inimitable Tasmanian Devil on your travels! A self drive by car or motorhome is a popular choice in Tasmania, or we can also offer a range of escorted tours.

Each area of Tasmania boasts its own incredible natural attractions. Australia’s smallest state capital, Hobart, is packed with history and culture and easily warrants a few days of exploration, whilst the national parks boast remote wilderness, deserted white beaches and towering peaks.

Trailfinders is the UK and Ireland's No.1 for Australia holidays

and one in six of all visitors from the UK travel with us! Almost all of our travel consultants have travelled extensively, often returning time and time again. Whether you want to link the best of Australia’s attractions with an easy network of flight routes, experience a once in a lifetime roadtrip, or traverse the epic outback by rail – our consultants can map it out, book your flights to Australia and guide you on the best time to visit.
