    What type of transportation is provided to and from the airport in Launceston to Hobart? When the tour ends on December 7th at 17:30 are we able to be transported to a hotel by the Launceston airport so we can catch a 6:30am flight the next day?

      The tour starts and finishes in Hobart. As the tour starts and finishes in Hobart you would just fly in and out of Hobart. The city of Hobart is approximately 20 minutes from the airport in which you can either catch the bus/taxi or uber.

    I'm travelling to Australia with my daughter and family in March 2026 but wish to extend my trip to Tasmania when I will be travelling alone.
