Places to visit
Launceston, a city that’s north of Tasmania. Wait… Tasmania? You mean the Tasmania devil? That’s not what I said but yes, you can see one over at the Tasmania Zoo, at 1166 Ecclestone Road Riverside, Launceston. While you’re there, and other than just sight-seeing, you can take up the opportunity to become a keeper yourself for day, working behind the scenes where most don’t get access to often.
Feeling lucky of all a sudden? Maybe, you can try your new found luck over at the Country Club Tasmania’s Casino. It’s a good experience for some casual fun, but always remember to play within your limits! If this would be your first time gambling, don’t be afraid to approach their game attendants, who will gladly guide you through the basics of a particular game you’re interested in.
For the artsy crowd, you can head down to Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery, which contains exhibits for everyone to admire and appreciate, whether you are young or mature.
Finding accommodation
Hotels are in abundance here, and I’m seeing more stars on average this time. 4 stars to be exact. If budget is not a problem for you, you can go ahead and stay in a hotel. Otherwise, there are alternatives like an affordable motel stay or a cosy inn stay will suffice.
Eating out
If you want to try out Tasmania’s local favourites, you definitely can’t go wrong with beef! Simply delicious to consume, and you won’t regret from such a hearty meal. While you’re there, you might also want to try out their local produce such as their farm grown sweet grapes.
Travelling around Launceston
Big city? No fear, an experienced guide and a trusty minibus to cater to your group will be enough to do the trick. Hiring one prevents you from encountering the possibility of not being able to acquire a transport when moving from one place to another.
