What to expect
Your guide collects you from Hobart for a ferry crossing to Bruny Island. After arriving, you'll head to Cape Bruny Lighthouse for an exclusive tour with stories rooted in the keeper's house—your guide's father worked there. You then descend to a secluded beach for oysters, cheese and bread while taking in the southern coastline. The afternoon rotates through Bruny Island Honey and Bruny Island Chocolate Co for tastings and browsing. You'll walk to The Neck's elevated lookout for 360-degree views, explore South Bruny National Park's shorter trails, and spot wallabies if conditions allow. Lunch rounds out the day at Hotel Bruny, featuring local and island ingredients.

The tour maxes out at 20 people per bus, smaller groups available. App-based commentary in Mandarin, Spanish, Japanese and Hindi—bring headphones. Ferry and park fees included; drinks aren't.
