We love Tasmania
At the Tasmanian Travel and Information Centre we employ over 20 enthusiastic, multilingual and knowledgeable staff to help visitors plan the perfect Tasmanian getaway. In addition to our skilled travel advisors, we have over 100 dedicated volunteers to greet visitors arriving from cruise ships and the airport on selected days.
We assist in planning itineraries, offer personalised travel suggestions, provide detailed local knowledge and information, and can even make your bookings.
As locals and tourism experts, we possess unique knowledge and information drawn from our experience of living in Tasmania and working in the tourism industry. We are conveniently located in the centre of Hobart, less than five minutes walk from the waterfront and the city centre. We are here to help, so call, use the website contact form or visit our travel centre for our personalised service.
Our website
Throughout our website, you’ll find online booking options as well as staff recommendations. You can create your own wish list by using the heart icon and, once you're done, you can send the list to a friend, discuss them together, compare tours and products. You can also send them to us for help in deciding based on your available time, your chosen mode of transport and the aims that you have for your holiday. Once you’ve narrowed down the wish list, we can take the stress away from the trip and book in your must do tours and experiences in order to make sure you don’t miss out through high demand once you’re on the ground. Alternatively, we can make similar suggestions if the timing just doesn’t work out, or you can’t change certain parts of your itinerary.
Our team get to experience many of our online tours and accommodation services first hand, so you’re able to trust that our advice is based on experience, whilst we're focused on providing a great service and even better holiday. Better still, we don’t charge a booking fee, and if you find something we don’t have on our website, chances are that we still have a relationship with the operator, can ring and book them in directly and simply add it to your itinerary. Once your itinerary is complete, we can work with each operator to confirm all of your details and, finally, settle everything in one transaction, rather than many small ones.
Lastly, we’re local. During your holiday, if you do need help for whatever reason, we’re a local phone call away and our small team will answer your concerns. Because we’re a small, it’s highly likely that the team member that answered your very first online question three months ago is the very same person that will be on the other end of the phone helping you with whatever you need. This means that they’re fully invested in your Tasmanian holiday and will do whatever we need to in order to make sure that you’re well looked after and more than just happy.
We specialize in Tasmania. Happy is not enough. We want you to go home completely and utterly stark raving ecstatic! We want you to share your stories and come back again and again and see what we see, share what we share - and love Tasmania.
