Hobart is a city of contrasts — colonial charm meets contemporary creativity. On this private walking tour, you’ll explore the best of Tasmania’s capital, from historic waterfront warehouses to bustling markets, with a guide who brings the stories to life.

Begin in Battery Point, one of Hobart’s oldest neighborhoods. As you walk past stone cottages and Georgian mansions, your guide will share tales of convicts, sailors, and settlers who shaped Tasmania’s early years. Learn how the island’s penal past influenced its culture and architecture.

From there, head down to Salamanca Place, a lively area filled with sandstone warehouses converted into galleries, cafes, and boutiques. If you’re touring on a Saturday, you’ll dive into the Salamanca Market, one of Australia’s most iconic markets. Your guide will help you navigate the maze of stalls, from local crafts to artisanal cheeses and honey.

Want more? Your guide can tailor the experience to include a visit to MONA (Museum of Old and New Art), a winery tasting nearby, or a short trip up Mount Wellington for panoramic views of the Derwent River and the Tasmanian wilderness.

This tour is ideal for history lovers, foodies, and curious travelers who want to connect with Tasmania’s roots — and taste its evolution. Your private guide ensures you get the real Hobart, not just the highlights.
