Bruny Island Gourmet Tasting Day Trip from Hobart

This is a full-day guided trip from Hobart that mixes Bruny Island’s best-known food producers with some of its standout scenery. Along the way you’ll taste local cheese, oysters, fudge, honey, mead, wine and beer, then sit down for lunch at a beachside restaurant overlooking Adventure Bay. It’s a good option if you want to see the island without organising your own transport, and you’re happy to pay more for a food-heavy day with most costs covered upfront.

The day starts in Hobart, with pickup available from selected hotels. Once on Bruny Island, the trip combines gourmet stops with short sightseeing breaks, so it is not just a tasting crawl. You’ll visit artisan producers for samples of cheese, freshly shucked oysters, handcrafted fudge, local honey, mead, wine and beer, with lunch included at Pennicott’s beachside restaurant. Scenic and cultural stops may include Two Tree Point in Adventure Bay, Mavista rainforest, the Bruny Island Neck, white-sand beaches and private English and native gardens overlooking the bay. The tour runs in all weather, so bring clothes that suit the conditions, and let the operator know in advance if you have dietary requirements.
