Tasmanian Devil Experience - Private Tour (Brenda)

This truly is a stunning and special excursion from Hobart.
Traveling Southwards towards the coastal and riverside towns of Huonville (apples and cherries in season); Franklin (wooden boat building centre); the very quaint inland village of Geevston. Here we have a chance to spot some of these incredible Platypus swimming in nearby creeks. Nothing, however. . . is guaranteed. Sorry

The scenery heading towards The Hartz Mountain ranges is spectacular, and our destination is the Tahune AirWalk.
Here you get to enjoy elevated views across the Huon River, discover the famous Huon Pine - the 'prince of Tasmanian timbers' - well known for being one of the world's most desirable furniture and boat building timbers. Enjoy a delicious and included lunch here at Tahune.
We return back to Hobart via the well known cider-making company - Willie Smiths.
Try a cider, cake, tea or coffee.
Truly a fabulous day, showcasing the beautiful Southern districts of Tasmania.
