What you can expect

Discover Southern Tasmania in a whole new way with this immersive full-day adventure tour. Departing from Hobart, you'll swiftly descend into the picturesque Huon Valley, embarking on a scenic two-hour drive through its winding roads and past lush fruit orchards. Upon reaching Dover, the stunning Port Esperance Bay will captivate you with its reputation as one of Tasmania's most exquisite natural harbours. Under the guidance of a seasoned local expert, embark on a leisurely morning kayak around Hope, Faith, and Charity islands, soaking in serene views of Adamsons Peak. This 2.5-hour kayak excursion requires no prior experience, ensuring you can fully appreciate the awe-inspiring scenery. Enjoy a delightful morning tea on the islands, all while gaining a fresh perspective on the Hartz Mountain Range, Dover township, and its enchanting surroundings. A lunch stop will be provided for you to grab a bite to eat before continuing to the Tahune forest for a captivating two hours. Walk among the treetops on the Tahune airwalk, a sturdy steel canopy offering a bird's-eye view of the forest floor, 50 meters below. Immerse yourself in the forest's tranquillity on a leisurely stroll and summon your courage to traverse a swinging bridge over a river. As the day winds down, relax on your return journey to Hobart, arriving around 5:30 pm.
