Overview

The Hobart Waterfront area is steeped in history, full of amazing flavor’s and a place of natural beauty.  Combined with being a relatively flat area, this makes the ideal location for our Take A Local guided walking tour app.

The walking tour commences at the historic St. David’s Anglican Cathedral before meandering down to Salamanca place via St. David’s Park.  Beautiful sandstone buildings that were once warehouses now await you having been filled with restaurants, cafes, bars and galleries. A bustling area for locals and tourists and presided over by kunanyi/Mt Wellington.

Learn about the past history of this still working dock as we venture along the waterfront towards Mawson’s Hut and the old IXL Jam Factory.  Fishing boats, modern yachts, cruisers and historic vessels are all able to be viewed up close as you wander in and out of the various docks.

After visiting some of Hobarts most luxurious hotels the tour winds its way back to the start point passing some of Hobarts most historic buildings including a bar that holds quite an amazing title!

The blend of old and new, natural and man-made, as well as numerous places to savor some of Tasmania’s finest produce, all in such a condensed space makes this a wonderful place to explore.
