In the morning, we will first drive to the best-preserved town of Richmond in Australia, where you will visit Australia's earliest stone arch bridge built in 1823 and the Catholic church built in 1836. The old bakery and dessert shop in the town are also a good place for tourists. This is also the filming location of the Hong Kong movie "Once Again". Next we will visit Salamanca Square. In the afternoon, we will climb Mount Wellington at an altitude of 1,270 meters, which is a great location to overlook the panoramic view of Hobart and the nearby sea. Next we will visit Australia's oldest brewery (exterior). We will also go to Tasmania's famous oyster farm, where you can taste delicious Pacific oysters (tasting at your own expense).
Drive south through Hobart city and arrive at the ferry terminal. Take the ferry for 20 minutes to Bruny Island. Drive along the coastline and shuttle through the forest to the famous North-South Line. This narrow trail connects the south and north of Bruny Island like a thin line, with endless sea on both sides. This is also the habitat for penguins to return to their nests. After lunch, go to the oyster farm on the island to taste the most delicious oysters in Tasmania (at your own expense*). Visit the bustling Adventure Bay on Bruny Island and look for the unique white kangaroos on Bruny Island. There are also some small shops hidden in the mountains and forests on the island, where you can eat cheese, taste seafood, and even have a glass of whiskey.
In the morning, we will first go to Mount Field National Park, which is the second oldest nature reserve in Australia and the oldest nature reserve in Tasmania. It has the best protected temperate rainforest in the world. There are both towering ancient eucalyptus trees and the beautiful and spectacular Russell Falls. Because of the lush forests and rich negative oxygen ions, it is also called a natural oxygen bar. In the afternoon, we will visit the beautiful Royal Botanic Gardens. Founded in 1818, it is the second oldest botanical garden in Australia. There are not only various local plants, but also plants from Europe, Asia, Africa and even Antarctica. The orchid pavilion, which is often used as a wedding venue, has a variety of beautiful flowers.
The east coast of Tasmania is a dream world, with blue sky, white clouds, colorful sea water and colorful reefs embellishing the coast. In 1999, Wineglass Bay was voted one of the top ten beaches in the world by the American travel magazine Outside. However, Wineglass Bay is located in the mountains, and its beauty is not exposed. Tourists must climb high and spend some effort to appreciate its beauty. Stop at the beautiful coastal town of Swansea on the way to enjoy the beauty of the east coast of Tasmania from different angles. (For driving safety, the tour guide will not accompany you to climb the mountain)

Port Arthur is the site of exiled criminals in the colonial era. It was the largest prison in the Southern Hemisphere in the 19th century and the best-preserved prison monument in Australia. The cultural history of Port Arthur and the beautiful scenery of the Tasman Peninsula have become one of the most famous tourist hotspots in Tasmania. Every tourist who goes to Tasmania will make a special trip to visit Port Arthur (tickets are at your own expense).
