Description

Board the Tamar Odyssey at Home Point and cruise into the enchanting Cataract Gorge reserve before gliding through Launceston’s historic riverfront. Pass the modern Seaport precinct before the landscape opens to rolling vineyards, fertile farmland, and charming riverside communities. Along the way, discover Tamar Island’s peaceful nature reserve, heritage homesteads, historic St Matthias Church, and the Rosevears waterfront pub. Cruise through Whirlpool Reach towards the iconic Batman Bridge. Travel 40 kilometers along Australia’s longest navigable estuary — a river steeped in romance and rich with stories of bushrangers, explorers, and gold diggers. Sheltered coves and quiet inlets provide sanctuary for hundreds of native waterbirds, offering wildlife encounters that can only truly be experienced from the water. As the scenery gently unfolds, relax into the rhythm of the river and indulge in local wine and beer, freshly brewed tea and coffee, morning tea, a light lunch, Tasmanian cheeses, and fresh seasonal fruit.
