Hobart, the capital of the Australian island of Tasmania, is small but full of life and surrounded by incredible countryside. The city has a reputation as being relaxed, full of friendly people, and very safe. For a long time, it served as the entry point to explore the island, but Hobart has become a destination to visit in itself over the past decade. Hobart was originally a British penal colony and is one of Australia’s oldest cities. The skyline is dominated by the 4,170-foot Mount Wellington which holds dramatic views over the city, the Derwent Estuary and numerous bays that lead to the Tasman Sea. The island of Tasmania itself is covered in stunning national parks — 19 in total — that are full of unique flora and fauna and waiting to be explored. Gray Line offers a variety of tours in and around Hobart to suit different interests and preferences — we have exactly what you’re looking for.
As the capital city of Western Australia, Perth has a rich past that continues to influence it to this day. For more than 45,000 years, Aboriginal Australians occupied the region and developed economic, cultural, and ecological practices that lasted generations. In 1829, Captain James Stirling embarked on a project to settle the Swan River Colony because of its fertile soil. Over time, however, Perth evolved into a major metropolitan center with a complex legacy. Enjoy over 19 beaches in Perth due to its perpetually sunny weather — the city experiences an average of eight hours of sunshine per day — and participate in cultural events like the Fringe World Festival.

Australia, officially the Commonwealth of Australia, is a sovereign country comprising the mainland of the Australian continent, the island of Tasmania, and numerous smaller islands.[13] With an area of 7,617,930 square kilometres (2,941,300 sq mi),[14] Australia is the largest country by area in Oceania and the world's sixth-largest country. Australia is the oldest,[15] flattest,[16] and driest inhabited continent,[17][18] with the least fertile soils.[19][20] It is a megadiverse country, and its size gives it a wide variety of landscapes and climates, with deserts in the centre, tropical rainforests in the north-east, and mountain ranges in the south-east.

Driver/Guide Rod was excellent as driver on a tricky mountainside road and very informative as the guide. Coach was full to capacity but Rod ensured all could hear the commentary and supply of fresh air was sufficient. Views from Mt.Wellington are fantastic but at 1,700 metres ab...
Excellent tour. The driver/guide; Phil, spoke at length about Tasmania's history and our destinations. The former Penal Colony at Port Arthur was well worth the visit and we left much unseen in the allotted time.
We had Colin for our driver. Very knowledgeable with his commentary & we enjoyed his Granddad jokes. The site was great and well planned out. I enjoyed the boat cruise as well. We knew what to expect (including how to navigate the rainy weather) when to be where so no stressors....
