Fabulous insight into the road less travelled in Hobart and Tasmania, the gourmet's guide! Sad you missed the scallop pies though, but you have to be quick getting there! 😁👍
Update: Other food places we visited Restaurant: Bar Wa Izakaya - Japanese - Really enjoyed the food here! Peacock & Jones - (Modern Australian) owned by a masterchef contestant Cafe: Born in Brunswick - Breakfast/Brunch/Coffee Bear with me - Breakfast/Brunch/Coffee Bar: Evolve Spirits Bar (worth a visit)
Wow, well done! Not sure why I started watching a video about what to do in my home town. I expected Salamanca, Mona and Mt Wellington but you covered so much more including several local spots. Best of luck with your chanel. Cheers Jono
Hey Jono! Appreciate the positive feedback! It's always good to see the perspective of a tourist. hey. We loved it in Hobart and can't wait to head back :)
If you come down to Hobart again you should definitely go to Lucinda and Sonny they are wine bars that also serve tapas. Amazing wines and atmosphere. I’ve heard Molto is pretty good also. Also Aloft, Frank and the Waggon are a couple more incredible restaurants you might want to try. 😊
Great video, gives me an idea of a few more places to visit on my next Tassie trip. I was down in Hobart in May last year, went to Port Arthur, didn't quite get up Mt Wellington due to black ice on the road, saw MONA that was something else, loved a lot of the exhibits they were fantastic but some extreme adult paintings on the lower level the content is outright sickening, but other than that MONA is awesome!
@@larrylim Port Arthur is a great place to see if you have an interest in colonial history, there you get to see the ruins of Tasmania's notorious penitentiary and learn about its history through a guided tour in which the guide explains each building and the system they had for the convicts. Also there is a boat tour which takes you around the bay showing the locations of the outer reaches of the penal colony and the guide talks about the history of those locations too. It is definitely worth checking out if you're into history!
Personally as a Tasmanian, I think going to Port Arthur is interesting if you want to hear about the history of the penitentiary and see some beautiful scenery but as you say, the buildings are in ruin. If you want to see a fully intact convict era gaol you are better off going to the village of Richmond which is also far more accessible than Port Arthur. The gaol at Richmond is intact and has various cells that you can actually go into and close the door on. Small admission charge.
Thank you for being honest in your reviews and mentioning your NOT TOO GOOD experiences. As you said, they are all pleasant but perhaps not great for the price you pay. I’m sure there are better options. You just have to keep visiting the region and reviewing more places. Funny you said you are Pinot drinkers but you found the chardonnays better?. Having such a cool climate, Pinots from Tassie are allegedly the best downunder, but I had the same impression recently and as a Pinot lover myself I did not find tassie Pinots up to scratch as they were 10-20 years ago. Grape or Vintage problems? climate change? Not sure what is happening to Tassie Pinots. Better to stick to their sparkling and whiskey.
Hey thanks for the comment!! Glad you like the video. I’m glad we wernt the only ones that didn’t have a good Pinot 😂 we were actually surprised the chardonnays were such a standout compared! I need to visit again to try more wineries, one visit isn’t enough!
Hi, thank you for showing this video. What month is peak season? Is still cold in November? Which guide tour can we book in the day for sightseeing or wine tasting?
Hi thank you so much for your vlog. Is Hobart 'doable' if one don't drive? Are most places/restaurants you mentioned easily accessible by public transport? I am planning a trip with my son in May 😊 Appreciate your advice. 🙏
Hey there I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! For the cafes/restaurants in Hobart city, you can definitely walk or catch a cheap Uber ride. However, if you're going to the wineries that I mentioned you will need to go on a tour which I think is a good idea so you can enjoy the wines :) As for Mt Wellington, there are buses and tours you can go on :)
Just what I needed for my Hobart trip coming up! Keep up the good work. Look forward to see this channel grow.
Glad it came in handy! Appreciate it the support 🙏

Haha I live in Hobart and Mona is honestly the funniest weirdest place I’ve ever seen 😂
Yessss totally agree with you on that haha! I just uploaded a MONA video too!
@@larrylim oo nice, will watch that
For cheese tasting, probably better off to visit The Bruny Island Cheese Company on Bruny Island or Grandvewe Cheese in Birchs Bay.
Yes agree with you on that, we went to Bruny Cheese Company and had a great time sipping on some cider and beers!

Hey Troy! Glad you got some places to visit next time. Curious how was Port Arthur, worth the visit? Haha yes MONA is quite unique hey.

Hey mate, glad you like the video, we went in mid April, I think in November max is around 25ish. Best to use trip advisor for all the day trips!
fun fact my sister was 1 of the winner in the Young Artcheis 2023
🙌🙌🙌🙌
Which month is the best to go and explore during winter ??
I am thinking to stay for 4 or 5 days
We went in mid April and thought it was perfect, cooler weather and sun. Keep in mind it does snow in TAS. Have fun on your trip.
When I was there the locals were incredibly racist...
Oh no sorry to hear that!! Maybe wrong place, wrong time, wrong people 😩
Wow this guide is next level! Thanks for all the tips and visuals.
Thanks Oliver, appreciate the feedback. Stay tuned for more vids :)
Thanks for watching! Hope this guide helps you when visiting Hobart!!
