Heritage Horse Drawn Carriages

For a truly memorable and unique way to see historic Hobart, there is no better tour than a Heritage Horse Drawn Carriages tour.  We focus on the most historic and iconic parts of Hobart - Salamanca Place, the Waterfront and Battery Point Village.  Our tours are exclusive and personalised.  Our guests can get up close and personal and meet our horses as well as us - the owners and operators of this award winning tourism business.  Coming into our fifth year of operation, we've already received three consecutive TripAdvisor Certificates of Excellence, two Commendations from Destination Southern Tasmania and Bronze and Silver Tourism Awards.  
Our guests are guaranteed of a superbly comfortable experience riding in our sumptuous landau carriage.  Our carriage might look like it's from the 19th century but it's actually brand new, with all the modern safety features.  Our horses are re-homed ex-racehorses we have retrained for a new and fulfilling life.  We take pride in our presentation and the health and well-being of our horses.  
There's a tour for every tourist here!  We have tours from 15 minutes duration right up to 1.5 hours and our guests will not only have fun on their tour but they'll really get to learn and appreciate our history, architecture and the stories from the characters who inhabited this once bustling outpost of the British Empire.  Today, Hobart is seen as a cultural hub as well as the gateway to the pristine Tasmanian wilderness.  We're a mecca for the cruise ships as well.  We offer tours exclusively to cruise ship passengers through shore excursions sold on the ship as well as direct bookings from cruise ship passengers for our other tours.
And, not only can our guests enjoy stunningly beautiful vistas in Hobart on their carriage ride, they can enjoy the best of Tasmanian produce whilst they do so.  We offer extras such as our Tasmanian Indulgence Package with award winning Stefano Lubiana (Derwent Valley) NV Brut and Norman & Dann (Salamanca) chocolates.  There's also our Tally-Ho Tea with petit fours and a hot chocolate or cappuccino from Salamanca Cream delivered direct to the carriage.  We love to please our guests and are always happy to help with special requests - whether it be a surprise engagement, special birthday or a romantic evening ride.
