Plan your trip

Tasmania is an island 240 kilometres south of the Australian mainland. It is famous for its natural beauty. At 68,000 square kilometres Tasmania is less than one–third the area of Victoria and is comparable in size with the Republic of Ireland, West Virginia (USA) and Hokkaido (Japan). 

The only ways to get to Tasmania is by aircraft or ferry.

Tasmania has a temperate climate with four distinct seasons. Typical summer temperatures are in the mid twenties during the day and mid teens at night – perfect for walking!

What our guests say

The whole experience was outstanding. Maria Island completely blew my mind with its natural beauty and pristine beaches, the wildlife and the accommodations.

Our guides were awesome. Ella, Issy and Ruby did a fantastic job. Ella and Issy's knowledge was excellent, they were fun and vibrant, easy to speak with and very helpful

In all honesty, this trip will stay with me forever. There is nothing I could complain about. I loved every minute and thought your guides all were awesome.

The walk is absolutely as it is described on the website and much more! I have such happy memories which I have passed on to my walking friends.  The tour is meticulously organised from collecting us from our accommodation to the final departure and good byes.
 Wonderful guides! Louie, Will and Joel are the best I’ve met. Not only are they knowledgeable of the Island’s history they are also dedicated protectors of this island sanctuary. Each day before we
moved on the guides checked the camp to ensure it remains one of the best places in Australia to observe wombats, Tasmanian devils, Cape Barren geese, kangaroos and wallabies. The bird life is
also spectacular.
In addition to amazing scenery, wildlife and birds and a quick dip in the Tasmanian waters I had the best food ever! Our guides prepared gourmet meals under the stars each evening which allowed us time to chat with our travelling friends whilst enjoying local wines.
Wishing Maria Island the very best!
