  • Overview
    Passing through the bustling Hobart waterfront over to the historic stone IXL building and the Cruise Terminals, this jaunt gives you a real appreciation of Hobart’s connection to the sea and the mountains such as Mt Wellington that's looming behind the city. This area of the Waterfront was the site of the first settlement in Hobart in 1804. Hunter Island has now become Hunter Street and the IXL Jam Factory is now the Henry Jones Art Hotel. Such wonderful repurposing of these architecturally valuable buildings has seen them live into the 21st Century and beyond. Therefore, horse-drawn carriages are the best possible way to experience the old-world charm of Hobart Waterfront.

    We had a wonderful time on our carriage ride with our 2 year old daughters on Saturday! I think it was the highlight of their trip to Tassie and the owners and horses were so lovely! Such a wonderful thing to do and really gives you a feel of what it may have been like living in battery point back in the day. We only did the 20 minute ride but easily could’ve gone longer! Would recommend as a must do if you’re visiting Hobart (us parents loved it too!)

    This was an amazing experience! We went on the 30 minute ride and it did not disappoint! We learned so much about the buildings, history, the carriage, everything! The horses were amazing and well behaved and it really was just such a beautiful experience! 5/5 would recommend!

    This was a lovely experience we booked after seeing the horses go past our hotel. Very accommodating for our 2yr old Who decided after 5mins she wanted to sit at the front in which Steve pulled over when safe and allowed her at the top with dad! Well priced, my only suggestion is to ensure you book in as spaces fill fast and we almost missed out!

    Very affordable experience and great way to see hobart township. The tour is roughly 20mins and the guides are very friendly down to earth people. Blankets are on board to keep you warm on those chilly nights. The tours run from the end of the Salamanca markets or can be from other pickup venues by arrangement. Booking is essential as the slots run out fast.

    I booked this for my wife, on her first visit to Hobart, as a unique introduction to the picturesque waterfront of the city. She enjoyed it more than I could have imagined. As a horse rider, she was thrilled by the opportunity to ride up with Steve and talk horses. Even though it was raining and cold, my son and I were warm and comfortable in the carriage, with the roof half-closed. Overall a great experience, highly recommended!
