5 If you need a scenery fix...
Looking for sandy beaches, top-notch views and premium produce? Bag a flight to Tasmania to commence AAT Kings’ East Coast Highlights tour. Steering well clear of the festive season’s hustle and bustle, relax and reconnect with nature via a hike through the picture-perfect Freycinet National Park, a walk through historic convict site Port Arthur, and a cruise around the haunting Isle Of The Dead. Foodies are catered for – thank goodness! – the tour includes a stop at Bridestowe Lavender Estate, famous for its lavender ice-cream. Grab an optional extra to spot penguins, too!
HOW TO BOOK From $1145 per person if you depart before December 27. Includes travel by luxury coach, accommodation, an experienced guide and airport transfers. aatkings.com/tours
