< View Other Tours

Tour Overview

Spend three days dining, exploring and savouring the peaceful landscape of Maria Island National Park. Enjoy lazy mornings in the quiet Bernacchi heritage house before you choose your activity of the day. Active adventurers can summit the island’s peaks or coastal cliffs with local guides while the more laidback can take it easy with wombat and wallaby spotting or relaxing by the fire. Learn about the island’s penal history as you explore the convict site of Darlington, then return to the mainland after two nights of Tasmanian island hospitality.
