Boottocht op de Gordon River vanuit Strahan

Vaar langs oeroude regenwouden terwijl u aan Tasmaanse wijn nipt en heerlijke lokale kazen proeft tijdens een boottocht op de Gordon River vanuit Strahan. U kunt kiezen of u 's ochtends of 's middags wilt vertrekken, en uw zes uur durende boottocht op de Gordon River geeft u meer dan genoeg tijd om Strahan en omgeving, de poort tot het Werelderfgoedgebied van Tasmanië, te verkennen.

Come aboard the fastest, smoothest, most comfortable cruise boat on Tasmania's West Coast, Lady Jane Franklin II, to journey deep into a land lost in time. Your cruise begins in the waterfront village of Strahan, heads towards the open sea at the spectacular Hell's Gate, then crosses Macquarie Harbour to the calm lower reaches of the mighty Gordon River. In the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area, marvel at the riverside rainforest, perfectly reflected in the river's waters, then take a walk into the timeless green of the forest at Heritage Landing.

At Hell's Gate, you'll feel the power of the sea and understand why mariners gave the place its name.

On Sarah Island, hear an enthralling actor tell stories of the days when convicts labored to cut logs of Huon Pine, to craft the timber into sturdy ships. The cruise ends with an early afternoon return to Strahan, in plenty of time to discover more about the town and its surroundings. Browse through the Wild Rivers Store and the Thylacine and Endangered Species Center.

Your seating options include:

• Atrium Seating - All forward seating, spacious seating with a number of styles to choose from. Includes buffet lunch
• Window Recliner - All forward seating with full length windows for exceptional views. Includes buffet lunch
• Captain's Premier Upper Deck - Luxury seating and exclusive deck space plus your own dedicated nature guide/steward. Includes fine food, wine and local Tasmanian beer.

Reisplan:

Salmon Farm: Atlantic salmon are raised in inland hatcheries then transferred to floating pens like those in Macquarie Harbour, where they grow to market size. Commercial farming of Atlantic Salmon only began in Tasmania in the mid-1980s and is now worth more than $150 million a year. Tasmania grows the only farmed salmon in the world that does not require treatment to remove impurities.

Sarah Island: The convict settlement at Sarah Island was once Australia's most productive shipyard, turning out almost 100 vessels. The six hectare island, located in Macquarie Harbour, was a feared penal colony from 1822-33 and ruins of the settlement are still visible today. Convicts built boats from the highly prized native timber, Huon Pine. Almost 2000 prisoners, officials and military passed through the island before the settlement closed.

World Heritage Walk: Enter the eternal silence of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area on a rainforest walk at Heritage Landing, beside the ancient Gordon River. Stroll through some of the world's last remaining temperate rainforest, featuring myrtles, leatherwood trees and species of native pines found only in Tasmania. A raised timber walkway leads through the damp forest to a fallen giant - a 2000-year-old Huon Pine that has fallen to the ground but continues to support new life in the form of saplings.

About the Lady Jane Franklin: The Lady Jane Franklin is a fast, quiet, spacious and environmentally designed cruise ship for the Gordon River. The hull and engine design ensure minimal impact to the pristine wilderness, whilst the interior features create the best possible experience for passengers.
