Things to do in Hobart - Bruny Island Cruises - Tasman Tours Activities

Hobart, nestled below Mt Wellington on the banks of the Derwent River, is Australia’s second oldest town yet maintains a small town charm lacking in other capital cities. With attractions such as the Salamanca market right on the waterfront (held every Saturday), the recently opened and acclaimed Museum of Old and New Art (Mona), brewery tours and burgeoning restaurant scene, Hobart holds its own as a venue in itself, while also acting as a portal to seeing what the rest of the island has to offer. A short distance away you can enjoy cruises around Bruny Island and the Tasman Peninsula, and explore the convict settlement at Port Arthur and the spectacular views afforded on this unique peninsula.
