Itinerary
See MapDay 1: HOBART > STRAHAN
We begin our journey into the Western Wilds at the stunning Mt Field NP, with its wondrous Russell Falls and some of the world’s tallest trees. Located within the World Heritage Area, we’ll experience Lake St Clair, rainforests, and magnificent views along the way as we traverse the Franklin-Gordon NP. We stop briefly at the quirky and fascinating mining area of Queenstown which provides a taste of Tassie’s pioneer history, before settling in the scenic harbourside village of Strahan. Nestled on Macquarie Harbour, this beautiful town has a wicked history, and here our guides know the best places to look for the elusive platypus!
Overnight: Strahan
Day 2: WILD WEST COAST
We’ll take you into the Tarkine Rainforest to hike to Tassie’s highest waterfall, Montezuma Falls, then explore Henty Sand Dunes. Or, today you can choose to take the optional Gordon River Cruise (own cost). Later, we’ll check out the wild and rugged Ocean Beach and breathe the freshest air in the world, before returning for our final night in historic Strahan.
Overnight: Strahan
Day 3: CRADLE MOUNTAIN > LAUNCESTON
Here it is! Tasmania’s big ticket item and every hiker’s dream: Cradle Mountain NP. Will you take on the climb to Marion’s Lookout or opt to meander around the glacial carved Dove Lake? With luck today, we may see a wombat or two at Ronny Creek. We’ll then check out Sheffield, the Town of Murals, before reaching one of Australia’s oldest cities, Launceston.
Overnight: Launceston
Day 4: LAUNCESTON > BICHENO
Explore Launceston’s beautiful Cataract Gorge before taking a scenic drive to the East Coast and exploring Tasmania’s best beaches, including the turquoise waters of the Bay of Fires. Here we take our time enjoying the breathtaking coastal scenery before making our way down to the relaxed township of Bicheno, where this evening you may wish to take the optional guided little penguin tour (own cost).
Overnight: Bicheno
Day 5: FREYCINET NATIONAL PARK > HOBART
An early start means we are the first to the Wineglass Bay Lookout, beating the crowds and the heat. Relax on the secluded beach or choose the more challenging Mt Amos climb or a beach walk. We’ll take in phenomenal views from the lighthouse at Cape Tourville before following the Great Eastern Drive to Hobart.
Note: Itineraries may vary for reasons such as seasonal conditions, weather extremes or Traditional Owner and national park requirements. See terms and conditions for more information.

Reviews
“Wonderful Time”
Hey guys, just finish our tour and wanted to say thank you for a great trip.
We had a fantastic group of individuals and the tour guide john was superb. He really went out of his way to teach us about Tasmania and to make sure we got the most out of our time here.
thanks again
“Great job guys!”
I had a great tour! The itinerary was perfect and the tour guide was great!
Keep it up!
“ It was absolutely 10 star tour”
Yes. I love and enjoy this trip very much. The beautiful scenery and friends met in the trip impressed me deeply. I didn't want to leave Hobart at last. If I have time I think I will go to Tasimania again. It was absolutely 10 star tour. Thank you so much.
“I had a wonderful trip to Tasmania.”
I had a wonderful trip to Tasmania - I really loved it. I had a great tour group and all of us had lots of laughs! Weather was superb with the day we were at Cradle mountain at about 30°C! You can't ask for better!
I don't really have any feedback to offer because I really thought the tour was well run i guess if you had to twist my arm i didn't realize i could do day tours with you guys out of Hobart - so the only thing i could offer is that on your tour advice page when you state we start in Hobart if you could have links to your day tours to like Port Aurther and the day trip down to MONA - and you know you might already have that it could be i didn't look closely enough!
But otherwise our tour guide was great (Leith) he had great knowledge was happy to chat to all of us and answer questions. Accommodation was mostly great. Tasnmania was beautiful! I'd def score it 4 out of 5 - and the only reason i didn't give it a 5 out of 5 was probably Launceston accommodation - and it wasn't terrible it could just do with a little updating - it was really hot and stuffy (not really their fault just summer and a hot day that didn't much cool down at night - rare i'd say for Launceston!) and i thought the bathrooms were a little under the weather - and we didn't have a microphone in the bus which did mean sometimes it was hard to hear Leith when giving instruction in the bus but it wasn't really an issue as he would always make sure we knew what we were doing and seeing and if we asked questions he was really good about answering them and everything - so it wasn't an issue but just as an overall feedback.
Thanks for showing me such a good time!
Regards
Jenni
“Bellissimo!”
mi spiace se non le scrivo in inglese, non lo parlo molto bene.
Il mio viaggio in Tasmania è stato bellissimo, l'ho trovato molto bene organizzato, anche il tour leader è stato molto paziente e teneva un'atmosfera sempre allegra.
In poche parole sono rimasta molto soddisfatta del viaggio cho ho fatto in Tasmania.
Buona serata Maria
“Great Tour”
The tour is great. My friends and I enjoyed the trip very much.
But one thing i would like to make a compliant. From the information on your website, it is a small group tour with maximum 16 people. But come out it was 24 people group tour. Then the 25p Car is comparatively small, with 24 people plus tour guide driver, 25 seats were fully occupied. It was very uncomfortable, especially for those big, tall and long legs.
“A really fun tour.”
The tour was allot of fun. We had A combination of A great guide (Bruce) and A fun group. The days were well spend and full of cool things. We recommend this tour to anyone that goes to tassie. The hostel of the 3e night was not so great. A huge kitchen but no supplies to make anything. ( like pots, pans and silverwear)
i dont know if you guys give out any prices for like "best guide" but if you do, i will nominate Bruce A 100%. Goodluck with future tours.
“Loved the tour!”
Loved the tour! I ended up adding on an extra day last minute and regretted the fact that I had to catch a flight after that because I would have loved to stay on for the last two days of the tour as well. Paddy was an excellent guide, I learned a lot, made a bunch of friends and had lots of fun.
“The trip was great!”
The trip was great! I give a score 3 out of 5. Unfortunately I think more meals can be include, at least the first lunch, the only place where we can eat for this lunch is pretty expensive (around $10 for just a sandwich), and it’s a bad start for a trip. Otherwise the bbq was yummy, the guide nice and walks and landscapes amazing!! Also, I expected only people aged from 18 to 40, but we went only a few young people it's made 2 groups in the group it’s a pity.
“great scenery”
I enjoyed the Tasmanian tour with my friend. I was just surprised how much travelling and sitting in the bus was involved. Or I may have underestimated the seize io the island. So I would suggest to give a notice in future.
Besides that the guides were very informative and great scenery.
“fantastic tour!”
The trip was fantastic and I would score it 4.5.
Every thing was great, but for the meals and accommodation. It seems that no chances to enjoy famous Tasmania seafood in a proper restaurant there and that’s a pity for me.
If the accommodation could be a Twin-bed shared room, not bunk bed dorm, that would be great, too. No one wants to sleep in the top bunk apparently. There is an old gentleman,73 from Japan who is forced to sleep in the top bunk because the young guy in our tour didn’t want to go to the top. Or, if the dorm could be no bunk beds, that would be also much better.
I definitely will go to Tassie again because there are still so many other beautiful places to explore!
“ Excellent”
if 5 is excellent, I’d rate 5.
“Review ”
We were a bit older than the other travellers. We have been on tours with the fancy upmarket stuff with somebody looking after you every step of the way.
Our tour guide Robert was entertaining (dry laconic wit) knowledgable, and caring.
Our fellow travellers were representative of our neighbouring countries, diverse backgrounds and ages.
We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and will stay in touch with some of our travelling companions.
The only negative comment would be that the transport provided has more comfortable seating with back pockets for storage of water bottles etc whilst on the move.

“Wish I could have stayed longer”
It feels like a lifetime ago! But it was a great trip - I only
wish that I had been able to stay for longer and actually this was a
mistake, I should have done the whole 8 day tour.
Ian, our tour leader was exceptional and really made the difference. I
guess he works for your partner in Tasmania? His knowledge and kindness
and humour but also his leadership in getting things done and on time -
all exceptional. It was great fun. The small vehicles were great too. I
would highly recommend the tour.
My only feedback would be that the cost of the single supplement seemed
too high and I know that this was a grievance felt by several of us on
the tour. I am 45 years old and a seasoned traveller and spent many
years staying in hostels and low budget accommodation. I have no issues
whatsoever with doing so and the accommodation on this tour was
perfectly adequate. I didn't take the single supplement offered at time
of booking as it was so expensive. However, one night I upgraded myself,
as there was a serious snorer in my group and the simple single room
that the YHA host gave me cost an extra $20 - seemed super reasonable.
We realised that in many of the places we stayed in that this would have
been the case. In Launceston one of my fellow travellers was very angry
as the prices she had paid for her single supp upgrade as it would have
been much cheaper to go directly to the hostel and get the upgrade that
way. I would use you again if this were the case but in fact some of the
options I have looked at give me a single supplement at lower prices.
“Good time in Tasmania ”
I'm spent the good time for five days trip, good Tassie travellers, good service, should be to join if i travel again in Australia.
“We will be back”
We were really enjoyed the trip in Tasmania.
We do hope that we will visit there once again
“5 Day Review”
“I absolutely enjoyed my trip. Tasmania has so much to offer.”
I absolutely enjoyed my trip. Tasmania has so much to offer. We got to see all the famous attractions in the 5 day island quick tour.
Rick was a wonderful tour guide, he made our trip so fun and I ended up making so much friends.
The hostels were great as well. Safe and close to the centre.
“5 days of tassie”
It’s probably the best way to explore Tassie! During the five days you get the chance to see the wide spectrum of Tasmania. You always have weather depending opportunities and even if it’s cold and rainy it’s still beautiful and definitely worth it! Along the way, our tour guide Rick taught us a lot about Tasmania, took care of everybody and did a great job! I would definitely recommend this trip to my friends!
“Famous 5 Tasmania Tour”
We have recently finished the famous 5 tour of Tasmania and had a great time on the trip. The tour is perfect for people to get a taste of Tasmania and see many of the different environments it has to offer. From the rainforests of the West coast to the Bush in Freycinet National Park the tour really has something for everyone and does a great job of catering to the different fitness levels of the people on the tour. Our tour guide Rick was fantastic as well, he was enthusiastic about the whole trip putting a smile on people's faces all the time as well as providing a great commentary about the areas we were visiting allow us to all learn something along the way. The accommodation on the trip was good as well especially the stay with Bumpy at Strahan Backpackers. Overall a great trip we would recommend to anyone.
“Super nice guide and well-organized tour”
Our tour guide, James, is super nice and friendly to everyone all the times. There are elders, hard listening people, and single traveler in our tour. We attends 5days tour. He is the guide and also the driver for 5 days. I feel the working hour is very long, but he treats everyone patiently always!!
The tour is well-organized and the stops are all the most famous sightseeing. The accommodation are all clean. Tour includes the breakfast. It saves our time to prepare in the morning. In the end of each day, James takes us to supermarket to buy food for the dinner and accommodations all have kitchen for use. Of course, it's easy to find restaurant around the accommodations if you are lazy to cook by yourself.
It's fun to travel with who are from a totally different background and age. Guide must be a plus in this tour!!
“Famous 5”
The tour is a little rush as you don't get too long in each location, it feels like a tick box exercise of the things to see in Tasmania. Some of the accommodation on the tour is interesting with quirky hostel managers and guidelines.
The tour guide (Storm) was very informative and thoughtful, making an effort to make sure everyone was ok and comfortable.
“Famous Five Tour”
I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to go to Tasmania! This tour goes both to the West and the East coast of the island, offering the most incredible scenery and views. This includes a lot of hiking, usually with a hard or easy option offered. There is also the option to go swimming at a lot of places, I highly recommend that!
The itinerary of the tour is great but what made the tour so awesome was our tour guide, Evan. He was very helpful, knowledgable and funny! A lot of driving and early mornings were involved but Evan somehow managed to always be in a good mood and he also provided us with some great tunes on those long drives.
Thanks Evan for making this tour the best one I have ever taken!
“Must not miss in Australia”
Homestly was the best tour I have done in Australia. Having done pretty much everything else Aus has to offer, the famous 5 tour of Tassie really gives you everything you want out of coming to the state. Climbing to the top of Cradle mountain was a personal highlight and swimming at every chance we got. Staying at Bumpys hostel for the first 2 nights really brought brought the whole group to together with how welcoming it was there. If anyone does this tour then make sure to get onto the one with Evan as your tour guide. Best tour guide I’ve had in Aus and is genuinely the coolest and most chill guy, more like a mate showing you around for 5 days and hanging out with you the whole time but also being so informative about all of Tasmania. Also he had some top jokes to dish out.
Thanks for the best time Ev
“Famous Five”
The Famous Five was the perfect amount of scenery and hiking. Options throughout the tour made it perfect for everyone, from casual walker to marathon runner. Our guide, Evan, was excellent. He clearly knows the island well, and had great recommendations throughout the tour.
Definitely recommend this tour for anyone who wants to see the most of Tasmania in a short amount of time.
“Amazing experience”
Our Famous 5 tour was fantastic! So many amazing stops, and a great group of people from all over. Our tour guide Matt took the experience to the next level with his knowledge and recommendations, and did a great job. Between the East and West coast Tasmania such a variety of beautiful scenery, would highly recommend.
“5 days Tasmania”
We had an enjoyable trip. It was relaxing as we had a good guide cum driver. Matt is very good with the local history and was able to recommend good places to dine in. We had a fun group and everybody was cooperative and punctual. Our guide is very polite, well mannered , responsible and tries his best to accommodate us. We could joke with him, tease him and have nice conversations too. Our requests for music onboard was granted. We cracked jokes and he interacted well with all of us. This trip by Under Down Under is good.

“5 days tour around Australia”
Very good tour, loved it. We saw all the highlights and very beautiful places in the west and east coast. Our tour guide Matt was awesome, thank you being with us!!!
“Fantastic”
We took this wonderful tour with Matt Februar 14-18, 2019. We were picked-up at our hostel on time and we began our 5-day journey. The vehicle in which we drove around Tasmania was good although the space between seats was a bit slight for tall people, where the knees were in contact with the seat in front. For me was wonderful cause I'm 1,72 Mts. The hostels we stayed at varied but ranged from I'd say very good good. Sleeping and bathroom accommodations were all acceptable till good! The leader, Matt, was knowledgable and always friendly. The group, which ranged in age from 19-60, was fantastic! It was the best group of my trip to Australia; this tour was the longest of my trip, which might have made a difference in giving time for getting to know people better. The hikes provided wonderful opportunities to get in touch with each oder and to know them. Of course HIGHLIGHT was "Matt" our Guide, he was really gut informed and helpfully, he explained us each Name, Corner and way we are very happy about this opportunity to know Tasmania with a very professional and top Tourist guide. We will of course highly recommend this tour to all the people we meet.
“Fantastic 5 day trip”
Amazing week (14.-18.2.2019) with our fantastic guide Matt! I have been to several tours around the world but a guide this relaxed, funny and informative is very rare. I would like to have Matt around on my future tours. Cheers, Enrico
“Famous 5 with our awesome guide Jacob!”
I just came back from the Famous 5 (5 Days) Tour. IT WAS TASMAZING!!! I have done lots of tours in Australia already and this was honestly one of my favourites! Tasmania itself is just beautiful. We saw parts of the west coast and also the most important spots on the East Coast. I really liked that we had plenty of time at each of the spots so we were flexible. There was the chance to do lots of hikes and everyone could choose a hike that suited personally. The breakfast was included, not lunch or dinner. But at each spot was the possibility to purchase groceries at the supermarket to prepare a cheap meal in the accomodation (and plenty of options to dine out). Thanks Under Down Under for this awesome experience. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!!
“Everything was brilliant! ”
I really enjoyed the opportunity to see some amazing places in Australia- it’s a very beautiful country. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and made the tour experience unique.
“Amazing experience!! ”
The trip to Tasmania was amazing. I really enjoyed every moment of it. We had a great guide (Matt) and we learned a lot about the history and modern times about Tasmania. It is one of the most beautiful places in the world.
“It was a trip of a lifetime! ”
Darcy was a fantastic tour guide, the bus was comfortable, all the stops where amazing.
Wish I could do it again and again and again :)
“One of the best experience!”
We enjoyed our trip. Though we couldn’t go to Cradle Mountain this time because of bad weather, we had a great time touring the island. Our guide was very friendly and took good care of us during our stay.
“All the best ”
I just finished 5 days tour in Tasmania with Under Down Under Tour. ( Start from 2/01/2022 to 6/01/2022)
It was an amazing tour package ( reasonable price, visited many many popular towns, restaurants, coffee shops, seafood restaurants especially hiking at famous mountains at Tasmania.
This was my first time to Tasmania but taking this tour I had chance to experience a lot of things in Tasmania, culture, history, beautiful natures and seafood in Tasmania….
I was enjoyed every single moments of each day tour. It was an amazing experience in Tasmania through this Tour package to me. I had so many beautiful memories from this tour which I can’t share all by words…!
I’m highly recommend this Tour to everyone who is wonder how beautiful Tasmania is. Let book the tour and enjoy it *****
Jason - Tour Guider- I would like to say Thank you to him and he deserve 5 stars for his services as A tour Guider for us. He is the most fun, friendly and intelligent tour guider I know from the time I relocated to Australia. He worked so hard to make sure everyone enjoy every single day of the Tour…. and his organizing skills are amazing
“Great action packed adventure”
A great way to get a huge amount of sights into a week with energetic and friendly tour guides, great information and explanations and an insight into Tasmania history.
“Super 7 Tour experience”
Completed the Super 7 tour in November 2021. Five of the seven days our group was with Ian. Ian was extremely professional and knowledgeable about every activity and hike we did on those five days. He put in his extra touch on every place we travelled to by first explaining the history of the place and how it linked with the previous activity. He also accommodated all of our additional requests. I had to make an important phone call on a packed day with limited reception and he was able to provide me a time and area for me to make that call. Furthermore, he helped the group immensely when deciding on what to eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
I had a great time on this tour, especially at cradle mountain and wine glass bay. I would highly recommend under down under if you are looking for a way to explore most of Tasmania in an efficient way.

“What an awesome tour it was”
This was the first time I was travelling in a group tour as mostly in the past I have done only travelled as solo traveler or did a day tour. The experience from this tour has been so great that I am thinking of doing more such tours in future.
Keygan who had been our guide throughout this tour was very polite, humble, very knowledgeable, humorous and friendly. All the tour mates were very friendly and humorous. I made new friends which is great. The best thing about this tour with Under Down Under was that they had taken to places more than I expected and cost of your was reasonable. Apart from that, accommodation was good and everyone were very well taken care of.
Now I am back in Brisbane but feel like going back and doing the tour again. I would like to return to tour with Under Down Under in future.
“Fantistic 5 Day Tassie- What a Trip!”
An amazing trip! Five days jampacked with Walks, Climbs, Lookouts, Waterfalls, Lakes, Beaches, Animals, Cruises, Tall Trees, History, Conservation, Fresh Produce, Wine, Theatre, Fine Dining... we did it all under the expert guidance of Ian Cordwell. Ian personalised the tour to individuals, which I, as the least fit member of the group, really appreciated. :) The days didn't end early for Ian- he was always available to make sure we were happy, and this was much appreciated. We couldn't be happier with our 5 Day Under Down Under Tour- thanks very much to a great local company for a fantastic Tassie Experience. Support them- they are awesome, and much, much better value than hiring a car!
“A Fabulous Experience”
I recently completed this tour and I could not rate it highly enough. I was unable to hire a car and I signed on for this tour as it ticked many of the boxes in relation to the places I wanted to see. Our tour guides, Tim and Ian were excellent, and I found out so much about the places we visited that I could never have found out travelling my myself- history, geology, zoology - our guides were an amazing source of information.
The highlights were the National Parks - Gordon- Franklin, Lake St Clair, Cradle Mountain, Freycinet etc. Tasmania has a unique landscape, and we were given an opportunity to explore it.
We had a lovely group of 18 people of mixed ages and nationalities, and that was another highlight for me. I enjoyed the backpacker experience, but if you are looking for five star accommodation this tour is not for you. We bought our own food, but were given the opportunity to buy fresh local oysters, amazing ice creams and Tasmanian baked goods. Even when it rained, our days were full of interest. Thank you particularly to our guides Tim and Ian who made sure that everything ran smoothly. They were always patient, informative and pleasant.
“Top Trip”
We had an amazing time with Wombat (Gaz) as our guide, he was so knowledgeable about flora, fauna, history and the local attractions. I am so glad we chose this tour with motel upgrade, rather than try to drive ourselves and organise everything. There is no way we would have seen so much or covered so many kms by ourselves in such a short time. Its definitely a busy 5 days, but gave us such a good overview of the main attractions, and we will definitely be back to Tasmania.
“Breathtaking Tasmania!”
Travis, our guide was amazing. His knowledge and insights of the places we visited was awesome, giving us tips and options along the way of towns , natural wonders we went too and was extremely helpful with any questions we had along time way. The places we stayed in where comfortable and the local communities we met along the where lovely. The group was great , some fab! connections made. I would definitely recommend Under Down Under Tours for those wanting to explore the breathtaking nature that Tasmania has to offer.
“Jacobs the man!!”
I usually don't do reviews but Jacob Fisher made this trip like no other. We had an amazing time over the 5 days and met great people on the tour. We got a nice blend of outdoor activities like hiking and swimming in the morning and cook-ups and dinners in the evening. Jacob was extremely knowledgeable (fan of horticulture, trees, birds, pretty much anything) and always had a story or two to make the trip more eventful.
If anyone's interested in getting to see Tassie over 5 days and keen to get away from the city for a bit, this tour is perfect for you.
“5 day Best of Tassie tour”
We saw so much and had a great time. We chose the motel upgrade and the properties were good quality with comfy beds and 2/3 had toaster and crockery for Own breakfast. When we added up the cost of car hire, fuel, accommodation, park entries, plus time saving the tour was so worthwhile. Our guide Courtney was fantastic, always accommodating and helpful, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Traveling with a mix of age groups and mostly Aussies (due to Covid) we all got along well. Highly recommend this option if you have limited time and want to see the highlights of Tassie. We will be back to see more in the future. Well done Under Down Under!
“5 Day Tasmania Tour”
Under Down Under provided the perfect taster to my first Tassie trip. We saw and experienced so much that I could not have done it on my own. Our tour guide Courtney was exceptional! Given that she is a Tasmanian girl now living interstate, she had a wealth of knowledge but was also just as excited as we were to see the sites. Courtney gave us options and was always professional in her dealings with us and the broader community. While she must have been exhausted, she provided an outstanding and fun tour.
“Tim the Tour Guide - BEST EVER!”
Tim was the guide on our tour, and he absolutely smashed the trip! What a legend!
His knowledge and sense of adventure are second-to-none - he has a plethora of facts and stories to keep you entertained and informed along the tour.
He’s extremely adventurous, helping everyone on the tour experience the best of the mountains, lakes, seas and forests along the trip. He cares deeply about nature and the world around him, spreading a true love for the mainland of Tassie!
I would highly recommend planning your trip around the tours that Tim is guiding - I’ve never been on a better tour!!
Tim taking you around the island over the five days will give you a true taste of the best Tassie has to offer!
*See attached for a shot of Tim living his best life up Cradle Mountain*
