Tasmania is the place I have spent the most time — primarily because I spent the first 21 years of my life there! I grew up surrounded by trees and bush, living on a mountain where I actually saw snow occasionally rare in Australia. I get many questions about what to in Tasmania with kids and without particular around what to see in Tasmania in 7 days.
To help you plan your trip, I have written this list of my top 25 places to visit in Tasmania — the ultimate bucket list! It is truly amazing. This museum is interactive, entertaining and completely different to anywhere else I have been. It is also confronting, controversial and riveting — I never knew what was going to come next.
There is a great deal of variety in the exhibits and the use of light, sound, movement and the involvement of all your senses means no one is going to get bored — even young kids. This is definitely top of my list of must see places in Tasmania.
You can read more in my full review in my guide to Hobart. The beautiful Hobart waterfront — we stayed right here. Read more about it in our Sullivans Cove Apartments review. This is a great place to pick up a souvenir, try some local food and soak up the atmosphere.
There are many surrounding parks and gardens which make a great spot for a picnic after picking some food at the market or for the kids to run around. Even when the market is not taking place, this is a nice area to visit with some great pubs, restaurants, cafes and shops. I used to spend a lot of time around here when I lived in Hobart.
