Experience the romance of yesteryear today! Board a sumptuous carriage drawn by two beautiful horses to explore our historic Salamanca Place and the Waterfront areas of Hobart. Unique in Australia, Hobart retains its colonial charm like no other city. Settled in 1804, it's the second oldest city in Australia. We love to show guests what brought us to settle in this beautiful state.
We'll take you through Salamanca and across the Waterfront which is a working port right in the middle of our city. Clip clop through our little city, breathe in the freshest air on the planet and feel the sun and breeze on your face, smell the salty air.
Our horses are Standardbreds (ex-harness racing horses) and have come to love their new job meeting hundreds of people each day. They live on our farm in the lush Huon Valley and come to work in Hobart one or two times per week. We hope you love meeting them!
Highlights
- Feel like royalty as you sit back and enjoy the sights and sounds of Hobart
- Be transported back to another era when carriages were de rigueur
