Day 1

Good morning, traveller! We will begin your Christmas in July escape with a complimentary home pick-up. Once we have collected your fellow passengers, we will make our way to Campbell Town where we will have some free time to stretch your legs and enjoy a delightful morning tea. Our next stop will be in Launceston, at Franklin House. Here, we will enjoy a very festive ‘Christmas in July’ afternoon tea. Built in 1838, Franklin House provides a unique look into the Tasmania of years long gone. After enjoying our afternoon tea and exploring the house & gardens, we will make our way to The Dragonfly. We will take a moment to enjoy the charming, quirky rooms of our home for the night. Dinner tonight will be at the King’s Bridge Restaurant. Enjoy stunning, hearty meals made with plenty of fresh local produce. With our night coming to an end, enjoy your luxurious room tonight as you drift off to a peaceful sleep.
