Launceston's best range of Tasmanian Whisky and Gin. Local artists and friendly service Tasmanian Spirits- Launceston Souls
I was made to feel so welcome walking in and the bar tender was engaging and friendly. I had a glass of sparking wine followed by a Tassie whiskey. The jazz duo added a lovely atmosphere. I especially loved the 2 comfy sofas at the front of the bar. Will be back.

Small bar in Launceston, Tasmania. A warm, friendly space to relax and enjoy good wine, good food and good company.
This little wine bar is the sort of find that makes you think “yeah I can live in this town! “ Having Recently moved from Sydney and after extensive travels in America and Europe, I was delighted to find this authentic, intimate , quiet wine bar with a superb selection of wine and great small plates , I highly recommend it!

Welcome to Australia’s largest regional museum The Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery (QVMAG) has enjoyed a long and proud tradition having celebrated its 120th anniversary in 2011. Today it has two key Launceston sites: the 19th century railway workshop at Inveresk which houses the natural science and history collections; and its 1891 Royal Park building on Wellington Street which was officially opened to the public as a dedicated Art Gallery last year. At Inveresk you’ll find our extensive permanent exhibitions Tasmanian onnections, Transforming the Island, hands-on science in the Phenomena Factory, Replay>> Sporting Life in Tasmania and the Heritage Trail. In addition there are a range of special exhibitions and our regular facilities including the Museum Shop, auditorium and café. As if Inveresk is not enough, there is even more at Royal Park. Make sure you visit both sites to really experience all that QVMAG has ‘On show’.
The highlight of this museum was the colourful and fascinating Chinese temple - brought together by a Chinese Australian from various Tasmanian mining sites. The bird landscapes were also very good. This place is well worth a visit.

We took a 4 hour Tamar River Cruise and it was an absolute highlight of our trip. Wonderful catering during the whole trip with fabulous staff who took care of everyone from beginning to end. Morning tea, lunch, a fully stocked bar and wine and beer tastings. The running commentary during the trip was amazing. So informative and entertaining and never once felt like it had been delivered a thousand times before which it must have been. Thank you to the crew for a wonderful experience.

A great market with wonderful local produce. The market is medium-sized, and you could go over all the stores in an hour or so. A nice place to get some fresh fruits and veges, and breakfast as well:)

The Tamar Island Wetlands is an unique urban wetlands reserve just 10 minutes' drive from the heart of Launceston. An interpretation centre offers visitors the opportunity to learn about the value of the wetlands environment and the wildlife that live there.
I stopped here thinking i could spend 30mins wandering around the wetlands and stayed over 2 hours. It such a beautiful little spot to stop. I did the walk out to Tamar island, an easy flat boardwalk all the way with a few bridges along the way for viewing the black swans, ducks, water hens and other birds. There are plenty of spots to stop along the way for a seat and a gorgeous picnic bbq area when you get out to Tamar Island. A lot of work has and continues to go into the wetlands - i would definately reccommend stopping if you have some spare time on the western side of the Tamar
