Tasmanian Expeditions

South Coast Track - 9 day challenge at the very base of Tasmania. From day one crammed into a light aircraft with our packs flying of the East Arthur Ranges to Melaleuca airstrip in the middle of nowhere to a 17 hour day traversing the Iron Bound Range (we were slow). A warm 29 degrees for the first day. Fortunately it was dry for most of our days (what a blessing) with only one morning of rain, hail, thunder and lightning. Even so there were still mud bog holes to get through and river crossings that were thankfully ankle to knee deep only and the wet side of the Iron Bound and South Cape Ranges to navigate. Swimming in the Tasman Sea was amazing. Views were astounding along the entire walk from button grass plains to barren rock faces and forests. Our guides were fabulous, they managed the personalities in the group, were empathetic, supportive, insightful and were able to judge and accommodate the abilities of all in the group. Long days of walking & short nights of sleeping. Be prepared to extend yourself and expect a few tears on the way (very cathartic) and above all respect and relish this amazing wilderness.

Not the first time I've booked with Tasmanian Expeditions and definitely won't be the last. I recently booked a Maria Island hiking trip with Tasmanian Expeditions. Apart from the location being stunning our guides were very knowledgeable and forthcoming with info. And the food was amazing! The whole booking process was trouble free with no problems at all. And I was kept up to date with emails.

Had a great experience with Tasmanian Expeditions walking the South Coast Track. Local experience and good leadership made for a successful and memorable trek. Highly recommended.

My wife and I recently completed the Overland Track with Tasmanian Expeditions and can not recommend them highly enough. Our group was excellent and our guides (Timmi and Ollie) were amazing and passionate about hiking and the environment. 5 stars all round.

I highly recommend Tasmanian Expeditions as they really looked after our tour group on a recent hike of The Overland Track. The guides were very informative and caring, giving us great advise even about what we should wear each day! The food was wonderful and all the equipment provided by the company was great. This is the second time I have trekked with this company and everything about both experiences was positive!

Overland Track 6 day thru hike. A trip to remember!

Its a trip I will never stop talking about! It was adventurous, informative, magically beautiful and between Rachael, Laura (our guides from Tas Ex) and the personalities in our group we laughed all day and night! Someone was always cracking a joke! It was so much fun! So a mix of landscape, people and good positive vibes made this a trip to remember! The meals prepared by Rachael/Laura & Tasmania Expeditions were insanely delicious and nutritious for hike food! There was never a time where we went hungry with plenty of snacks and chocolates always on offer!

I completed this walk in April with guides Jesse and Ed. We had beautiful weather and a fabulous group. Our guides were knowledgable as well as fun and made us all feel comfortable. The scenery was spectacular, we saw only a few other people the whole trip and really enjoyed the solitude of this magnificent place.

I recently completed The Walls of Jerusalem Circuit trek with Tasmanian Expeditions. This was a5night, 6 day undertaking, which I can heartily recommend to anyone wanting to experience a true wilderness walk. It was both strenuous and very rewarding. Camping at remote and beautiful lakeside spots for the first three nights and realising that walking in with a full pack was the only way to get there made all the effort worthwhile. The Walls themselves are spectacular and the walks therein exhilarating. Go prepared for some tough walking but GO!

Great adventure, looked after brilliantly by our three guides Shaun, Grace and Ben. Food amazing which of course went with the unforgettable scenery. If you want a real adventure in the wilderness then go with Tasmanian Expeditions down the Franklin. And personally I would definitely include the option of climbing Frenchman’s Cap which was a real highlight.

Great company for walks. Organised with fantastic, friendly and knowledgeable guides. Adds that level of safety especially when you are a solo walker. Also a great place to meet like minded people.

We did a 6 day walls of Jerusalem hike. Stunning. Super supportive guides very well organised. Worked with us to make it perfect for our group. Strong leadership when needed but great guys. (Luke and Ed.) Good equipment and all the help we needed. Very challenging hike but worth every step.

I recently did the 6 day Overland Track with Tasmanian Expeditions and would highly recommend their tours. The two guides, Pete and Dan, were incredibly knowledgeable, professional and great to have a laugh with. The supplied gear was top notch and the provided food was always delicious. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I would travel with them again.

Great time, great experience, both our guides excellent, they knew their stuff, nothing was too much for them to help or give some advise,

I am going back next January to do the six days of Kayaking

Cheers boys see you next time

Had an amazing tour with TAS Ex on the Overland Track over Dec. We were a little unsure of a group hike, but Jess and Laura were amazing! Very knowledgeable of the track and countryside, great group co ordination, and just really good people to guide us and share 6 days hiking with. Did I mention the food? Fresh greens, abundant meals and snacks, varied, perfectly cooked, with lots of treats. Our meals were the envy of all other hikers. Highly recommended tour with this operator!

We had an amazing trip on the Maria Island walk. The bush, beaches and view from the island are spectacular, this was coupled with great local food and wines all freshly cooked by our fantastic guides. What a 4 day adventure this was

Fun day out with Ian and Harry on the Ben Lomond descent, mountain bike experience! Amazing views along the ride and definitely a must do when in Tasmania.
Morning tea and lunch provided was also absolutely delicious!

Mid February, 3 days of cold, wind and rain, woke to an inch of snow covering tent on the fourth day. Learnt so much about trekking, packing and myself. Great equipment, guides and group. Will definitely do again and hopefully see some views.

Touring the east coast of Tasmania on a bicycle is fantastic. Our stay on Maria Island was incredible and added to an already memorable experience all the way down the coast. If you are prepared to climb the first couple days, manage the Tasmanian traffic for a week and provide basic equipment maintenance, the reward is there for the taking and we did. We have positive and wonderful memories that will stay with us. The folks at Tasmanian Expeditions set us up for success. We are impressed with their can do attitude and immediate response to any of our questions and requests. The trip went off like clockwork.

Excellent tour guides, fantastic fellow hikers on the amazing Overland Track. We had an awesome time trekking through Tasmania’s fantastic scenery. Food and company was first class and I would highly recommend this great company to all.

The Walls of Jerusalem is a beautiful hike in alpine Tasmania. Whilst in the high country one explores a fairy land environment surrounded by tall cliffs and rugged snow capped mountains. The scenery is truly amazing. The 3 guides on our trip did a fabulous job - excellent meals, tramping off the beaten track to find a hermit's hut or finding the best place on the lakes to go swimming in the ice cool waters. This is a trip for all. It is not as demanding as the SW track or as crowded as the Overland Track. It is highly recommended to those that love the great outdoors
