About this tour
A full-day loop from Hobart that combines coastal walks with colonial history and wine tastings across Tasmania's east coast. Starting with breakfast near the city, you'll drive through rural landscapes to Freycinet National Park, tackle the moderate hike to Wineglass Bay's clifftop vantage point, explore sheltered beaches, then wind back via a historic convict bridge and winery lunch overlooking Great Oyster Bay. The 10.5-hour itinerary covers roughly 240 kilometres with a local guide navigating the Great Eastern Drive.

What to expect
Expect a mix of driving, moderate hiking and short walks across varied terrain. The standout is the Wineglass Bay climb—a steady 45-minute ascent with grand coastal rewards, not gruelling but requiring reasonable fitness. You'll swap between the bus, beaches and lookout platforms, with natural breaks for food and photos. The winery stop lets you rest legs while sampling regional produce. Weather dictates pace; guides adjust timing based on group energy. Most stops are guided rather than self-directed, so you'll absorb local knowledge without having to plan.
Good to know
Minimum moderate fitness required; not suitable if you struggle with sustained walking or stairs. Wear sturdy shoes and check the forecast—Tasmania's coast shifts quickly. Meals aren't included but opportunities abound at the bakery, winery and farm shop. Hot beverages aren't allowed on the bus for safety. Children under 8 aren't permitted; infants travel on an adult's lap.
