Sharing is caring!

Who says you need a car to explore Tasmania’s capital? Hobart is proof that some of the best travel experiences are right at your feet—or just a ferry ride away. With walkable streets, compact neighborhoods, and epic activities around every corner, this city is a dream destination for those who want to travel light and sustainably. Here’s your ultimate guide to a car-free Hobart adventure.

Where to Go and What to Do

Mona: Where Art Gets Wild
First stop? The Museum of Old and New Art (Mona). This isn’t your typical museum—it’s edgy, thought-provoking, and seriously cool. Getting there is part of the fun: hop on a ferry along the Derwent River and snap some pics while perched on a quirky sheep sculpture. Pro tip: upgrade to the Posh Pit for all the bougie vibes (think free canapés and drinks).

Salamanca Market Saturdays
Spend your Saturday mornings wandering through Hobart’s iconic Salamanca Market. With over 300 stalls selling everything from fresh produce to pottery, it’s the perfect spot to shop local and snack on a famous Tasmanian scallop pie.

Battery Point Strolls
If vintage vibes are your thing, Battery Point is a must-see. This charming neighborhood feels straight out of a storybook, with its cobblestone lanes, historic cottages, and cozy cafés. It’s perfect for snapping Insta-worthy shots or enjoying a quiet moment over coffee.

Unique Experiences You Can’t Miss

Blak Led Tours
Want to connect with Tasmania’s roots? Take a Blak Led Tour and discover Hobart’s deep Aboriginal history. Whether you join a guided walk or go the self-guided route, you’ll gain fresh perspectives and cultural insights that’ll stay with you long after the trip.

Seaplane Adventures
For the thrill-seekers out there, hop on a seaplane with Above & Beyond. Get aerial views of Tasmania’s stunning coastlines, from Port Arthur to Bruny Island. It’s the kind of once-in-a-lifetime experience that’ll make your friends jealous.

Tasmanian Devil Unzoo + Coastal Cruise
Mix wildlife with breathtaking views on this unforgettable combo. Meet the iconic Tasmanian Devil at the Unzoo, then cruise along the dramatic cliffs of Tasman National Park. Nature, history, and conservation all in one day? Yes, please.


The Takeaway

Hobart is your go-to destination for effortless and unforgettable car-free travel. Whether you’re into art, history, nature, or food, there’s something for everyone—and you don’t need a set of wheels to make it happen. So pack your walking shoes, grab a ferry schedule, and get ready to explore this gem of a city.
