surrounded by stunning beaches and horizon-wide seas
In Australian terms, Tasmania is a small island. But it’s packed with natural wonders and wonderful experiences – nowhere more so than the national park that surrounds Freycinet Lodge.
Tasmania has a spirit all its own and a character that is completely different from North Island (as the locals love to call mainland Australia). It has its own flora and fauna too; ranging from the fabled Tasmanian devil – stand well back; this is a creature of unbridled ferocity and little sense of humour – to mighty, centuries-old huon pine trees.
You can drive from the southern tip to the northern most point in a day, but if you really want to stay somewhere that encapsulates the island, specify Freycinet Lodge on your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Tasmania. Here you’ll be surrounded by stunning beaches and horizon-wide seas, dense green forests, towering mountains, eucalyptus-cloaked hills and deserted bays reached only by tiny tracks, or by boat.

A hugely enjoyable nine-day trip, expertly organised from start to finish. The itinerary covered everything we wanted to see and do, with excellent guides, drivers and seamless logistics throughout. The documentation was clear and helpful, and the London office was consistently responsive, knowledgeable and efficient.
Planning my first solo trip felt like a big step, but The Ultimate Travel Company made it easy from the outset. I reached out over a year in advance, and Rob Kent quickly put together a thoughtful itinerary based on exactly what I was looking for, securing great flights and always being available to talk things through. Everything ran smoothly and I felt looked after every step of the way. The accommodation in Japan, Fiji and Tahiti was excellent and the experiences unforgettable.
