This package is perfect for couples wanting to get away from it all, to experience some of Tasmania’s best nature walks while indulging in the Island’s famous food and wine.

Throughout your journey, swing by the cider houses and farm gate stalls of the Huon Valley and take meals at charming pubs and wineries that have been family owned and run for decades. Feast on fresh, local produce including line-caught seafood, grass-fed beef and home-grown fruit and vegetables. This part of Tasmania is just as much about the food as it is about the nature.
This self-drive package includes 5-nights in handpicked, boutique accommodations in Hobart, Dover and Wattle Grove on a twin share basis.
