Day 1 - Melbourne, Flinders Island, Strahan Our private plane is bound for the Furneaux archipelago off Tasmania’s north-east coast. Alighting on Flinders Island, the largest of the group, and famous for its crayfish haul, we visit the island’s noteworthy lookouts, including Trousers Point and Vinegar Hill. After a lunch of fresh, local produce we take to the skies again for the short hop to Burnie and a scenic drive to the west-coast town of Strahan. Cocktails are served at our hilltop hotel, which overlooks the charming harbour town, after which we head out on a sunset stroll to dinner at a celebrated waterfront restaurant.
Day 2 - Strahan, Gordon River Today we cruise an exquisite stretch of the Franklin-Gordon Rivers National Park aboard Spirit of the Wild. As we take in the splendour from the vessel’s Premier Upper Deck, our personal guide shares their knowledge and passion for the world-famous region while we enjoy a lunch of local delicacies, accompanied by Tasmanian wines and beers. Back in Strahan, we take our seats in the Richard Davey Amphitheatre, where history is brought to life in the highly-acclaimed play 'The Ship That Never Was'. Afterwards, dine at our hotel’s restaurant or at one of a selection of nearby establishments.
Day 3 - Strahan, King Island This morning, we take to the rails aboard a heritage locomotive for a journey into Tasmania’s cool temperate rainforest. Along the old logging line from Macquarie Harbour, we follow the course of the King River, crossing historic bridges and passing former settlements. This afternoon, a short flight from Burnie aboard our private plane takes us to King Island, renowned for its dairy-friendly pastures and delicious produce. We raise our glasses to these culinary riches during a Farewell Dinner at the island’s finest restaurant, located at Boomerang By The Sea, our accommodation for the evening.
Day 4 - King Island, Melbourne Enjoy a leisurely breakfast this morning before setting off for Cape Wickham on the island’s craggy west coast. Here we see Australia’s tallest lighthouse, which has been a guiding light for Southern Ocean seafarers for more than 150 years. We then make the gastronomic pilgrimage to the King Island Dairy for a much-anticipated cheese tasting at the altar of Australian cheese. Lunch is served, King Island style, before we board our private plane for our early afternoon flight back to Melbourne.
