This summer, load the car and head south for a
holiday that begins the moment you step on board. Sail with Spirit
of Tasmania between 23 January and 21 March 2010 and when you buy a
Day Ticket for just $95* each way, you'll get another Day Ticket
absolutely free! But hurry, offer ends 28 November 2009 unless sold
out prior.
Experience the freedom of loading your vehicle with as much
luggage as you like and enjoy the stress-free allure of sea travel.
Day sailings depart Melbourne and Devonport at 9am and arrive the
same day at 6pm.
Passengers can enjoy cruising along to live entertainment during
the voyage or take a seat in the on board cinema which screens
complimentary movies.
Travellers can select from a variety of food and beverage options
at one of the on board bars and dine in either the buffet or a la
carte restaurant.
Once you arrive, you'll feel relaxed and refreshed, ready to start
your touring adventure. Tasmania is an island made for car touring.
There are high-quality roads, the distances between towns are
comfortably short and the glorious landscape is constantly
changing.
Explore the wonders of the Tamar Valley Wine Route and discover
why it's such a majestic place to visit - for a short break or a
major holiday. There are nearly 20 vineyards and wineries along the
route and you'll recognise many of the most famous names in
Australian wines, such as Pipers Brook, Providence, Jansz and Tamar
Ridge. Many have cellar doors for tastings and sales and the beauty
of having your own car means you can stock up on all your
favourites.
While in Launceston, don't miss Festivale - celebrating three days
in February devoted to food, wine, arts and entertainment including
roving street performers, musicians and dancers from Tasmania and
interstate.
Discover some of the most beautiful and best kept beaches along
the east coast of Tasmania. Named one of the 10 best remote beaches
on earth, the stunning clear waters and pure white sand of
Wineglass Bay are a paradise hard to believe existing in our own
backyard.
"With the festive season already on its way, surprise a friend,
relative or loved one with an affordable holiday that they'll
always remember," said Mr Charles Griplas, CEO Spirit of
Tasmania.
