Hobart Walking Tour
Hobart Walking Tours is much, much more than someone pointing out some buildings and telling you about dates and timelines. When you take a walk you travel slowly. You absorb more, interact more, experience more. You stop and run your hands over the intricate stone work of our beautiful heritage listed buildings, crafted by skilled convict stonemasons. Walking brings you into the depth of the city, hidden away places and into the footsteps of those who made the history. Walking gets below the ‘tourism’ and welcomes you to the real Hobart.
Red Decker
The Red Decker is the official sightseeing tour of Hobart featuring the city’s best sights and attractions. Use your 24-hour ticket to do the 90-minute city loop tour or hop-on hop-off at any of the 20 stops for the duration of your ticket.
