Overview
Not only are you in for an adventure of a lifetime looking at Hobart from all angles, but this is also the perfect introduction to our beautiful river city. This signature private tour is designed to take you through some of the most scenic and historic locations surrounding Hobart, capturing breathtaking views from the peak of Mt. Wellington down to the edge of the Derwent River. Whether we are walking through the diverse, flourishing landscapes of the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens or strolling past the historic sandstone cottages of old Battery Point, I love to bring relevant stories to the surface to help set the scene and bring our history to life. Hobart is uniquely built on both sides of the Derwent River. Because of this, we have a deep relationship and a vibrant culture centered around spending time on the water - whether it’s for leisure sailing, fishing, or work. Like most great cities built on waterways, this river was and remains our lifeline, stretching all the way back to our indigenous people, the original custodians of this land. Because this tour is 100% private and fully customizable, we can completely shape the day around your personal interests and pace. Whether you are a photography enthusiast chasing that perfect light and photo opportunity, a history lover in search of family heritage connections, or traveling with family and needing a relaxed schedule, I am here to help you get the absolute most out of your chosen adventure. Come with me, share a laugh, and let’s experience the very best of Hobart together!
