Experience Hobart's Rich History Embark on a journey that marries Tasmania's rich history with contemporary art. Your day unfurls with a guided coach tour through Hobart, where you'll learn about historic landmarks like Sullivans Cove, the birthplace of Hobart, and the sandstone cottages of the quaint suburb, Battery Point. Did you know that the Cascade Brewery you'll visit is Australia's oldest operating brewery, founded by a former convict turned businessman, Peter Degraves? Explore the beautiful Cascade Gardens and the remains of the Female Factory, a former female prison featured in Bryce Courtenay’s novel. An optional stroll through the resplendent Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens awaits, and you'll be captivated by the panoramic view from Rosny Hill's lookout.

Tasmania's Premier Modern Art Venue, MONA

Board a scenic cruise along the Derwent River, leading you to the world-renowned Museum of Old and New Art (MONA), a labyrinth carved into a sandstone cliff. Home to Australia’s largest private collection of art and artifacts, MONA challenges your senses and perceptions. Navigate through the museum using 'The O', a handheld device that offers interactive commentary and insights about the exhibits. Possibly savor a meal at The Source Restaurant or the Museum Cafe (at your own expense). As a quirky fact, MONA is the brainchild of millionaire gambler and art collector, David Walsh. End your day returning to Brooke Street Pier in Hobart, leaving you with a mind full of artful impressions and a heart full of Hobart's charm.
