What to expect
Your first stop is the Explorer Bus heading uphill through eucalypt forest to the mountain summit. Weather shifts noticeably as you climb; bring a light layer. The half-hour at the top gives you time to walk the lookout platforms and snap photos, or tackle a longer trail if you're keen. Back in the city, the Red Decker's open-top buses show you waterfront precincts, heritage districts, and gardens. Jump off wherever interests you—the theatre district, MONA area, or Battery Point's colonial cottages—then catch the next bus through. The 48-hour ticket means you can split your exploring across two days.
Good to know
Mountain weather changes rapidly; layer up. The explorer pass works all day if you want multiple visits. City buses run frequent loops, so you're never stuck waiting long. Food isn't included, so grab supplies in town. Wheelchair accessible throughout. Prams and service animals welcome.
