Experience the incredible Tasmania by Rail, Road and River


Whether you’re a foodie, an adventure lover, a culture enthusiast or a hodophile, Tasmania has something to offer all types of travellers. No wonder it is one of the most visited destinations in Australia. 



The state is by no means short of breathtaking places to visit and things to keep you busy. From the exquisite wildlife to the beautiful coastal regions, Tassie is the perfect holiday destination for young and old alike.

Railway Adventures offers the best Rail Experiences in Tasmania. If you want to be thoroughly spoilt by the best things Australia has to offer we highly recommend this tour.

The amazing thing about our Tasmanian Holiday Packages is that you not only get to travel by rail but also by road and river. Take a special ferry to The Museum of Old & New Art (MONA) and enjoy everything from the spectacular light installation the Pharos to the Siloam - the underground tunnel complex.

You’ll also ride the West Coast Wilderness Railway from Strahan to Queenstown with champagne in hand, feasting in the train’s comfortable restaurant balcony car.

Tasmania is also known for its majestic mountains, pristine beaches and lush rainforests, but also its indecision when it comes to the weather. This is what sets it apart from the dry, desolate majority of Australia, and makes for some of the best wineries and whiskey distilleries in Australia.

The optimal time to visit the ‘holiday state’ is during Autumn. The changing colors of leaves, mild temperatures and the annual spectacular Sheffield Steam fest will be a sight to behold. However, Tasmania is beautiful all year round, welcoming tourists from across the globe with open arms. 

A chance to explore the incredible things in Tasmania will be a once in a lifetime experience. Opportunities like this don’t come around that often so book your tour now by visiting our website: https://railwayadventures.travel/
