No Hobart itinerary would be complete without at least some natural beauty and a Tasmanian Devil!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tasmania is also home to significant parts of early and modern Australian history that have shaped the country, like Port Arthur, a historic convict settlement with a notorious history and the site of the infamous 1996 Port Arthur massacre. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar convict-era sites can be found all around Hobart and elsewhere in Tasmania. Your Hobart itinerary will probably include at least some of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting to Hobart<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hobart is the capital city of the state of Tasmania, an island state south of Victoria. Since it is separated from the rest of the country by the Bass Strait, the easiest way to get there is to fly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a different experience, you can also take the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spiritoftasmania.com.au\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.spiritoftasmania.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Spirit of Tasmania<\/a>, a ferry, from Geelong in Victoria to Devonport in Tasmania, with or without a vehicle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you take the ferry, it is an 11-hour, 15-minute trip followed by a 255 km drive to Hobart. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are <a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Europcar\" href=\"https:\/\/europcar.com\" data-linkid=\"7036\" data-shortcode=\"true\">Europcar<\/a> et <a href=\"https:\/\/www.budget.com.au\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.budget.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Budget<\/a> car rental depots located at the ferry terminal in Devonport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting around Hobart<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hobart has limited public transport, with busses operated by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metrotas.com.au\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.metrotas.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">MetroTas<\/a> across the greater Hobart region. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being smaller than every other capital city in <a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Australie Posts\" href=\"https:\/\/stillaslife.com\/fr\/tag\/australia\/\" data-linkid=\"5445\" data-shortcode=\"true\">Australie<\/a>, except for Darwin, Hobart is easily managed by car, with many of the key historic sights located within walking distance around the Hobart CBD. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are hop-on hop-off busses and shuttle buses that include both the CBD hop-on hop-off bus but also options that go to Richmond Village and Mt Wellington summit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pre-Book Your Hobart Bus Tour Tickets Online:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>CBD Red Decker Hop-On
