Arrival & Departure
The 5-day Coast Adventures: Tasmania cruise begins and ends in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia (HBA). We highly recommend arriving one day prior to your trip start date in case of any flight delay, cancellation or lost luggage issues. Plan flights to arrive to Hobart in time to board the vessel at 4:00pm for 5:00pm departure on Day 1. Plan flights to depart Hobart following disembarkation at 8:00am on the final day of the itinerary. If you would like assistance with international flights, please visit our Booking Flights resource page.
Activities
Whether you are looking for light activity options or more challenging outdoor pursuits, the ship’s crew can tailor most excursions to suit your skill level. Adventure activities may include hiking; beachcombing; cruising by Zodiac, glass-bottom boat or Xplorer tender; kayaking; stand-up paddleboarding; photography; wildlife observation; and historical visits. This trip is suitable for passengers of all fitness levels, though reasonable mobility is required to enjoy all it has to offer. Guests are welcome to opt-out of any excursions and relax on board. Summer temperatures and wind chill in Tasmania can be very cool so warm layered clothing is essential. As Tasmanian cruises visit remote regions, this voyage is not suitable for passengers with serious medical conditions.
Room Configuration
Limited double occupancy cabins for solo use may be available at a sole use rate in the Promenade Deck B category. Contact AdventureSmith for further details and availability.

Children 0-3 years of age at time of the cruise are free of charge. Two adults and one child traveling together can be accommodated in two staterooms only aboard Coral Discoverer (there are no pullman bunks). On all ships, two adults and two children traveling together may request two rooms next door to each other.
