The 15 Best Richmond & Coal River Valley Tours from Hobart

22 reviewed

Twenty-five minutes north of Hobart, Richmond keeps the oldest bridge and the oldest Catholic church in the country, and the Coal River Valley around it pours some of the best cool-climate wine in Tasmania. These 15 tours join the village, the cellar doors and the history in one run: what each stops at, how long they take, and which pair the heritage with a long lunch.

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 371 reviews · 10h 30m · from $119

Small-group day trip from Hobart to Wineglass Bay and Freycinet National Park, plus Richmond heritage and secluded bays with a guide.

“Great day trip with lots of beautiful views and wildlife! It was also more affordable than most other tours. We lucked out with some great weather despite the rainy forecast. Alex was a great guide and was interested in getting to know all of us individually, which I appreciated. I personally would have rather skipped the winery and gone straight to Richmond so that we could spend more time exploring the town (but I’m not a wine drinker). Definitely try the homemade lavender ice cream there! I also enjoyed stopping for fresh cherries and nectarines (I recommend highly them!!)”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 158 reviews · from $121

11-hour Tasman Peninsula, Port Arthur and Richmond day tour from Hobart: cliff walks, UNESCO prison site, Harbour Cruise, plus bridge stroll.

“Trip exactly as described. Our guide was informative and friendly. The walk in the national park was short(and optional if you didn't want to do it) but beautiful and we saw some wildlife along the way. We had about 4 hours at Port Arthur on our own, which included a harbor cruise. Stop in Richmond was 45 minutes. It was a lot to cram into one day, but didn't feel too rushed. Ticks many boxes for people with limited time in the Hobart area.”

Afternoon 4-hour coach trip from Hobart to historic Richmond Village. About 3 hours to explore, shop, and eat.

“Our bus tour from Hobart to Richmond was a highlight of our stay in Tasmania. It was so much more than just being driven to and from Richmond. Al (not El) our bus driver and guide, was the star. Despite not being born and bred in Tassie, Al had a commanding knowledge of Tasmanian history and had so many interesting stories to tell us. But he also was very charming and created an atmosphere of camaraderie amongst the passengers during the trip, having us all laughing all the way to Richmond and back. Al made our day, and is an absolute asset to this company. Thank you.”

Full-day Hobart tour to Mt Wellington, historic Richmond, and Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary for up-close native animals and Tasmanian devils.

“Our guide, Bas, was great. He was informative and looked after us. The weather was beyond his control but because he thought it might go bad he stopped to ensure we did get a great view of Hobart and surrounds. He was very careful coming down the mountain in the snow and we had no concerns about our safety. We enjoyed our time at the Botanical Gardens. However, in the afternoon we would have liked less time in Richmond and more at Bonorong.”
