Tasmania's Foodie Roadtrip

Another thing that Tasmania is infamous for - their food and drink! You could spend weeks tasting everything Tassie has to offer, from cafe hopping around Hobart, to Lobster rolls on the west coast, to wine tasting or a brewery tour around Devonport, oyster farms on the Freycinet Peninsula and artisan cheese in the midlands. In fact, one of the best offerings in Tassie are the side-of-the-road honey, homemade jam and seasonal fruits - discoveries which happen spontaneously when you're driving, making car hire an essential for authentic food experiences. Book your SIXT hire car and create your own culinary adventure through Australia's gourmet island.

Iconic Tasmanian Road Trips

Tasmania delivers Australia's most rewarding road trips, with each route offering distinct landscapes - from alpine highlands to pristine coastlines, colonial history to ancient wilderness.

Drive around the island taking in Freycinet National Park, Bay of Fires, Cradle Mountain, Strahan's wild west coast, and Port Arthur. Follow the Great Eastern Drive north through coastal towns. Connect Cradle Mountain with Strahan via the Tarkine wilderness. Explore the Tasman Peninsula and return via the Huon Valley and Bruny Island.

With SIXT's flexible one-way rentals, design the perfect itinerary that matches your interests. Start planning your Tasmanian road trip today!
