Hobart Historic Walking Tour


Journey into Hobart’s fascinating past, discover how and why the island was first settled and the struggles of early settlers.

Your expert guide will point out some of earliest structures as well as famous sandstone buildings, still in excellent condition today. Hear stories of important characters, from the troublesome military officers to high achievers including legendary Sir John & Lady Jane Franklin, 1840’s governor of Tasmania.
