Hobart Travel Guide: Best Things to Do, See, Eat & Experience
Hobart has a way of surprising you. One minute you’re wandering between historic sandstone buildings at Salamanca Place, coffee in hand. The next, you’re standing on kunanyi / Mount Wellington with cold wind on your face, looking across the city, river and sea. Then the sun goes down and you’re choosing between a cosy wine bar, a historic pub or somewhere serving incredible Tasmanian produce.
In this episode of Tourist to Traveller, I’m sharing my Hobart travel guide... including the best things to do in Hobart, where to eat and drink, where to stay, the day trips worth adding to your itinerary and the practical tips I wish every first-time visitor knew.
Because Hobart isn't a city I think you should rush through. The magic is in combining the must-see experiences with enough space to wander, discover and follow your curiosity.
