Hobart Hop-On Hop-Off Bus & Richmond Village Tour

About this tour

Explore Hobart across two distinct experiences: a 48-hour hop-on hop-off red double-decker circuit covering 20 city stops with panoramic views from the open top deck, plus a dedicated 4-hour excursion to Richmond Village. Wander Richmond's Georgian streetscape at your own pace for three hours—browse independent shops and galleries, visit Australia's oldest bridge and colonial gaol, sample local producers, then return through Coal River Valley's vineyard country.

Highlights

• Open-top double-decker with 360° Hobart vistas from upper deck
• Twenty stops across Hobart, hop on and off freely for 48 hours
• Three hours unguided exploration of Richmond's colonial precinct
• Australia's oldest bridge and original gaol in one village
• Exclusive attraction discounts at Richmond shops and eateries
• Scenic drive through Coal River Valley wine region
• Complimentary Official Sightseeing Guide and onboard WiFi

What to expect

Your first day kicks off with the 90-minute city loop—settle into the upper deck as commentary walks you past key Hobart landmarks. The full circuit takes 90 minutes; most travellers hop off at 3–4 stops. Your ticket stays valid for 48 hours, so return whenever suits. Later, the Richmond coach collects you for a 45-minute scenic drive south through Coal River Valley before arriving in the village. Three hours there is genuine breathing room: grab lunch at a local café, duck into a gallery, inspect the 1823 bridge and gaol, or pick up provisions from artisan producers. The return journey retraces the valley route.

Good to know

Bring sunscreen and a hat for the open-top deck. Food and attraction entry fees are separate—budget accordingly for Richmond. The village itself is freely walkable, but gaol and church entry incur charges. Wheelchair-accessible throughout. Nearest public transport is walkable from departure points. Infants sit on laps; prams welcome but storage limited on the coach.
