Zoos in Hobart, TAS

Hobart is Tasmania’s very historic and very scenic capital city.

It’s the perfect place for kids to immerse themselves in culture, and of course, the great outdoors! Naturally, there are a few surprises along the way!

Tasmania is an island, so naturally there is a maritime history! Just as well there is the Maritime Museum of Tasmania where kids to explore the fascinating stories of the past! 

Hobart itself is an incredibly historic town, and there is so much history to uncover you won’t be short of places to explore! The very spooky Penitintiary can even lead to some fun ghost tours, or spend the day exploring Battery Point with original buildings from over a century ago!

Art fans will just love the Museum of Old and New Art, and those sweet toothed family members will LOVE sinking their teeth into the Cadbury Chocolate Factory! (Don’t eat too many samples at once!)

From animals at Bonorong Animal Sanctuary, the relaxing State Cinema, to the challenging Mount Wellington, Hobart really has something for everyone in the family! 

A family-friendly island filled with family-friendly history, culture and FUN!
