A Luxury Driving Holiday to Tasmania including the Targa Tasmania rally

After an early start, the group will enjoy breakfast before starting the drive. Your day cuts through the centre of the island via the Great Western Tiers, Central Plateau, and Great Lake Conservation Areas, offering a stunning backdrop of craggy ridges, wetlands and historic homesteads. In the afternoon you'll arrive into Frogmore Creek for a late lunch, before enjoying an evening at MONA and the precinct's award-winning restaurant, The Source.

Today, you will head north on the bends and twists of the south-eastern coastal roads from Hobart to Launceston. Along the way, you'll enjoy lunch at Twamley Farm sampling Gert and Ted's gourmet creations. In the evening the group will arrive into Launceston and prepare for the commencement of Targa the next day.

Today you will commence the Targa Tasmania tarmac rally component of the event. The first day of the Targa Tour is a warm-up loop to the east of Launceston that includes six closed road stages, as well as some great driving as part of the transit legs.

Day two of the Targa Tour covers one of Australia's most dramatic and beautiful forest-to-coast drives. Your stages today include the infamous Sideling, as well as one of our favourite drives - Elephant Pass. In the early afternoon our tour will peel off and make our way down to the stunning Saffire Freycinet, one of the country's most stunning boutique resorts. Here you'll enjoy a fresh oyster shucking experience, followed by a degustation dinner with accompanying wines.

Indulge in a well-earned sleep-in. Relax and enjoy a leisurely morning at Saffire Freycinet before we depart for the final leg back towards Devonport, enjoying a final run on open roads again. In the early evening board the Spirit for the return trip to Melbourne.

Today we will arrive back into Melbourne bright and early, disembarking the Spirit between 06.30 and 07.00. From the disembarkation point in Port Melbourne, the convoy will head south to Elwood for breakfast.
