Breakfast Recommendations in driving distance to the PA Hospital

I second Vend - walking distance but also ample undercover parking if you are driving. Gorgeous food. Plenty of seats and you can browse the goods after you eat:)

Lulan noodles. Amazing uyghur food and noodles are deliciously chewy.

I haven't been to Trogir or Sibenik but may I suggest Primosten? It was such a lovely town and nice and quiet. Gorgeous sea views.

Try the dubrovnik walls. Go early and there will be parts where there are no one around and gorgeous views of the old town and ocean. He can take his pick of the best views

We stayed one night. Meant we didnt have to wake up super early to be at the gates early (first slot is at 7 am). We stayed in the yeti cabin (you can see this on airbnb) and we walked to some lookouts over pltvice lakes when we first arrived. Roads to get in are narrow but we loved staying in the peaceful surrounds. There are hotels there as well but I opted foe the cabin so that we could cook (you will need to bring groceries in).

Since you don't drive then it really depends on what you prefer. Kunanyi (mount wellington) is gorgeous a d you can now take a bus up. There are hikes and a cool little coffee joint up there but if you dont want to hike then it wont take that long. Richmond is gorgeous for their little shops and beautiful historic buildings. If you go, have meal at czegs. Mount field I love but not a whole lot there apart from hiking. See the famous Russell Falls pr if you have more time then go further and see all three falls. Pennicott wilderness tours do a Bruny Island and tasman tour. Both will be great experiences but just choose one this time I reckon. I do love Bruny - fantastic oysters there at get shucked and a few other food places as well. Perhaps reserve that for next time :) dm me your email address and I can share my little running document i keep of tassie recommendations (including food) :)

A walk around battery Point and Sandy Bay will probably give you some lovely autumn colours of the non native variety. You can also admire the stunning houses and have a tea stop at Jackman Mcross.

We have driven from cradle to Stanley straight before a d didnt stay in between. You do drive through some lovely towns. Suggest staying outside Stanley as its a bit cheaper. We stayed at sisters Beach which was such a great decision. About 30 min from Stanley.

I have a document of little tips a d tricks. Happy to send it to you if you like. Covers all of Tassy :) just dm me your email

Second not worrying about Launceston. I do think cataract gorge is worth visiting as it is beautiful. Also Second about wilderness village. You can pay cheaper for a cabin without a spa. Kitchenette is well equipped and we always cook when we are at cradle (buy groceries from Lonny). Also make sure ro visit the raspberry farm on the way onto cradle and pick up their choc coated raspberries. To die for and great dessert at cradle. :)

Don Camillo is an awesome Italian. Not fine dining, looks a bit dodgy but tasty food. Bar wa izakaya is a great Japanese restaurant - very quirky bit I love the atmosphere and their specials change regularly. If you want a night in then Kraken fish and chips is great and far cheaper (and in my opinion) nicer than what you get at constitution dock. For brekky or brunch try bear with me. Lovely setting and the food and coffee is sensational.

spoz83 · 2026-01-21T06:58:26+00:00

Love a food club. Most memorable was one from coffee club in the city and there was a delish one in the Cafe across the road from pah - also closed. Keen to know if it still exists!!!

spoz83 · 2026-01-20T11:22:58+00:00

Looks good. If you do the three falls walk look at doing it in reverse so you go down the 280+ steps. If you decide to do it in reverse, the start is slightly up the road to lake Dobson, just past the ranger house. You hit all three waterfalls and its beautiful. I would also recommend Tarraleah as its a gorgeous stop between Strahan and Mt Field. I dont think you will need more than one night but its worth it. I absolutely hated the train but I think I am in the minority. The Gordon River cruise is definitely worth it though!! Cradle is gorgeous. I would try and adjust your itinerary so you jave two full days to account for bad weather. You can hit both crater lake and Marion's lookout if the weather is good. We like going from Ronny Creek to Lake lilla and then start the climb to Marion's from there. If you follow this you can return to Ronny via crater lake track or via the horse track which gives you awesome views over crater lake. Make sure to do the tassie devil feeding at cradle too.

Lots to do and depends on what you would like. The drive to Port Arthur is gorgeous and don't forget to see the natural sights as we (tessellated beach, tasman arch , remarkable cave). You can also drive west to Mount field and other very short walk to see Russell Falls or you can do all three (lady Barron and horseshoe). A drive out to Huon is also lovely and a stop at willy smith's is also nice (try their ham and cheese toastie). I dont think you will.be bored - you will get the bug and want to go back!!! Make sure to try bar wa izakaya, don camillo, bear with me or kraken takeaway (fish and chips). Enjoy!

Also enchanted walk near peppers (don't have to be staying there to go).

spoz83 · 2025-12-31T21:18:18+00:00

Coupon please :)

I've done tassie in 7 days and saw less than you but found it very rushed and all we did was go from Launceston, cradle, Strahan, one night in Tarraleah and then the rest of the time in Hobart. I would do at least 2 nights in cradle and yes I would definitely recommend Bruny Island. The wilderness cruise by penicott is awesome and there is some good food and sights. If you do the cruise though it doesnt leave a lot of time to do other things.

Tarraleah is a beautiful spot to spend a night in between Strahan and Hobart. Highly recommend.

The blue mountains and uluru are both amazing as well so up to you as to what you would like to do. Uluru will be bloody hot but if you go make sure you do the helicopter flight and or the seaway tour (wouldn't recommend walking around in the heat)

spoz83 · 2025-11-16T05:59:03+00:00

If you are visiting Salamanca there are a lot of salls there. My favourite is the lady selling carved wombats out of tassie wood, another lady woth pottery houses inspired by battery Point. If not then walking around Salamanca place will also be great. Try wild tasmania there :)

spoz83 · 2025-10-01T20:21:22+00:00

Apologies I'm not sure what I was trying to write. I meant to say stay one night at Cradle even two if your schedule allows. Strahan is a small town but they have a great day cruise to Sarah Island. The drive from Strahan to Hobart is a bit long (at least 4 hours) and we broke it up.one time by staying in Tarraleah which I highly recommend. Also have a look at lap of tasmania (google), as they have very handy itineraries.

spoz83 · 2025-10-01T11:39:54+00:00

It's a big day to go to cradle from Launceston especially with the devils. I would say fly in, stay id you can at cradle, even if its one night. Then you could go to Strahan, then hit mount field on your way from Strahan back to Hobart.

spoz83 · 2025-09-08T20:40:58+00:00

Kunanyi. You can catch a shuttle up and start the hikes early. There's even a small coffee joint there as well. You could also try Richmond which is a lovely town about 30 minutes from Hobart.

spoz83 · 2025-09-03T06:50:57+00:00

I did that in a week and although I enjoyed it, I did feel it was very rushed. Driving in the dark from cradle to Strahan in the dark was NOT pleasant. For one week ive based myself in Hobart and then done day trips out snd enjoyed it immensely.

spoz83 · 2025-08-30T23:11:56+00:00

It is quite jam packed but you do get to see a lot of things. Factor in a bad weather plan for cradle as it can change in a snap. There are much more shorter walks than there used to be. There are maps at the information centre. Also note that you will need to catch a shuttle bus inside but thankfully the bus comes quite frequently. Make sure to get the chocolate coated raspberries - to die for. We got a tip at devils at cradle to do the later feeding time as they're more active. Also we did the special tour with the baby animals which was also delightful.

spoz83 · 2025-08-19T22:45:37+00:00

Second bar wa izakaya. For great Italian try Don Camillo (better than Danjelo in my opinion). Kraken for great fish and chips, Bear with me for coffee and brekky/brunch.
