With such a unique local convict & colonial heritage past at locations like Port Arthur Historic Site, Tasmania fills an important place in the early settlement history of Australia. This can be seen by the well preserved early 1800’s Georgian & Victorian sandstone built buildings still standing in Hobart Town or at Richmond Village with their bridge or goal.

It is a great place to choose for a self guided drive holiday, or jump onto a local day or multi-day tour to experience the best of Tasmanian with local professional guides. Tasmania also has a large cruise ship industry, with many local shore excursion operations and local tour providers working in Hobart, Burnie & Port Arthur Ports.

Where did Tasmania come from?

The Dutch navigator Abel Tasman discovered Tasmania in 1642. He named it Van Diemen's Land after the Governor of the Dutch East Indies, Anthony Van Diemen. Little did Tasman know, the state would end up being named after him.

In 1798, the navigator Matthew Flinders sailed with George Bass in a ship called the Norfolk. They circumnavigated Tasmania, proving that it was an island. This was good news for European ships, as it meant they could cut through the Bass Strait (named after George Bass) instead of travelling the whole way around the south of Tasmania.

Tasmania was first settled by the British in 1803. Lieutenant John Bowen arrived on a ship named Lady Nelson with 49 soldiers, settlers and convicts. They originally settled at Risdon on the River Derwent. However, in 1804 they abandoned this settlement for Sullivan’s Cove – the location that would become Hobart under the leadership of Lieutenant Governor David Collins.

Hobart grew as trade increased and local industries, such as sealing, whaling, brewing, shipbuilding and most significantly, the wool industry, emerged.
