Departing Hobart, this tour offers something for everyone. Start off by visiting and driving across the Tasman Bridge and park beneath to learn about the Lake Illawarra collision and bridge collapse. From there, you will be captivated by the breathtaking views overlooking Derwent River. Visit two wineries, and a local distillery owned by the daughter of Tasmanias founding whisky distilling family.
Includes a beautiful two course lunch at the Frogmore Creek Winery.
While the Kangaroo Bluff Battery was originally developed in the late 1800s to prevent enemy vessels posing a threat to Hobart, it now makes the perfect picnic location with views over the River Derwent, Kunanyi/Mount Wellington and Hobart. After exploring the Kangaroo Bluff Battery and learning about Tasmanias early war time history, we will visit various wineries and venues in the region including Every Man and His Dog Vineyard, Frogmore Creek Restaurant, Wicked Cheese, Richmond Village, and Killara Distillery. These venues offer wine, gin (Whisky & Liqueurs), chocolate and cheese tastings for you to indulge in. At Killara Distillery, you will have a special distillery experience with the owner. Additionally, you can take pleasure in exploring the beautiful gardens surrounding these Tasmanian wineries.
For lunchtime, we have arranged a wonderful two cousre winery lunch at Frogmore Creek Winery where you can also enjoy more wine tastings.
Take a leisurely stroll through the historic village of Richmond and cross over Australia's oldest working bridge.
Along our route are several roadside stalls selling local fruits and preserves - a great opportunity to purchase something special to bring home as a souvenir.
