Embark on an unforgettable journey through the landscapes and stories of North West Tasmania with eGuide, Tasmania’s award-winning and trusted leader in tours. From rolling inland hills to glittering coastal vistas, this carefully designed shore excursion showcases the very best of the region — blending breathtaking scenery, fascinating wildlife, and award-winning gardens into one perfect day ashore.

Inland Countryside
Your adventure begins with a drive through Tasmania’s lush interior, where patchwork fields, rolling green hills, and distant mountain ranges create a scene of rural tranquillity. As the countryside unfolds, your knowledgeable local guide shares tales of Tasmanian history, unique wildlife, and the traditions that have shaped this remarkable corner of the island.

George Woodhouse Lookout
Our first stop is the George Woodhouse Lookout — a serene vantage point where sweeping views stretch across valleys and farmland. It’s the perfect place to breathe in crisp mountain air and capture postcard-worthy photographs of Tasmania’s pastoral beauty.

Wings Wildlife Park
Soon after, tucked away in the countryside, lies Wings Wildlife Park, one of Tasmania’s true treasures. Spend two hours exploring this sanctuary, where you can hand-feed kangaroos, meet wombats and koalas, and encounter the island’s most famous creature — the Tasmanian Devil. With entry included, you’ll have ample time to wander freely, enjoy the on-site café, or even take part in optional animal encounters for an even deeper connection to Tasmania’s unique wildlife.

Penguin & the Coastal Drive
The return journey towards Burnie takes you along Tasmania’s spectacular north-west coast. Gaze out at the sparkling waters of the Bass Strait, rugged cliffs, and pristine beaches, with a short stop in the charming seaside town of Penguin. Its quirky giant penguin statue offers a playful photo opportunity and a memorable reminder of Tasmania’s coastal character.

Guide Falls
From the coast, venture inland once more to Guide Falls, a peaceful cascade framed by lush greenery. Here you can stretch your legs, enjoy the soothing sound of falling water, and hear from your guide about the importance of waterfalls to Tasmania’s ecosystems and culture.

Emu Valley Rhododendron Gardens
Continue on to the internationally recognised Emu Valley Rhododendron Gardens — a botanical wonder of vibrant blooms, winding paths, and tranquil lakes. This award-winning attraction offers serenity and colour in every direction, and with luck, you may even spot a platypus in the ponds. Take time to relax at the licensed café and savour the peaceful surroundings.

Upper Burnie Lookout
Your day concludes at the Upper Burnie Lookout, with sweeping views across Burnie’s harbour and your cruise ship waiting below. From this elevated perch, your guide will share insights into Burnie’s maritime heritage and its role as the gateway to Tasmania’s wild and beautiful northwest.Experience Tasmania’s breathtaking scenery and hidden gems with eGuide.
