Tasmania is an archipelago of more than 300 islands sitting just 240 kilometres (150 miles) south-east of mainland Australia. While Tasmania is part of Australia, it is in many ways quite different. There are more than 1,000 mountain peaks, four mild seasons, more than 40 per cent of the island is protected as national parks and reserves, and it is home to some of the world’s rarest animals. The main Island, which compares in size to West Virginia, the Republic of Ireland or Hokkaido, is home to about 500,000 people. Fly directly into Hobart and spend two full days exploring the surrounding areas. Explore the gardens and galleries of the city by motor-coach before we venture into the village of Richmond as well as Bonorong Wildlife Park. You will also enjoy a day trip to Bruny Island - full of untouched wilderness and ocean coast wildlife. Enjoy morning tea, and the spectacle of massive stark cliffs shaped by forces of nature. Embrace the power of the ocean and look for dolphins as well as enjoy a boat cruise. This extension is a great add-on from main-land Australia and is easily accessible by air.

  • Reviewer: Rinat Goren, 2009 located in Central America

    "Just wanted to thank you. We are back from Costa Rica and had a wonderful trip. Everything worked really well, on time and we had really good time. Also, I wanted to comment on your contacts in Costa Rica- they were very responsive, helped solve problems on the spot and it was very reassuring to have them there."

  • Reviewer: Nita Duncan, 2009 located in Egypt & Ancient Lands

    "For any single traveling woman - no fear! I, a single 61 year old female, traveled through Egypt & Jordan with absolutely no fear or concern for my safety. Not because I am brave but because there was no external cause for fear. The representatives who met me at the airports, the guides (especially Sam), and the drivers were all wonderful and very informative. The tour was first class and I would love to take another with Kinsington Tours and will recommend them to all my friends."

  • Reviewer: Marie, 2009 located in Asia

    "We are back and we had a wonderful trip. Everything was perfectly organized, with the right balance between time with a guide and free time. We were very lucky with the weather, no rain at all except for a 20 minutes thunderstorm in Dalat. Halong Bay was very clear all the time although it is supposed to be foggy during the day. The Metropole was perfect, the best breakfasts ever, the boat, Jasmine, wonderful and we were only 14 people instead of 44…,the Palm Garden in Hoi An very nice, the Ana Mandara in Nha Trang, pure Heaven, the Sofitel in Dalat beautiful, almost empty and a very friendly staff."
