Both my daughters and Reg and I have toured Tasmania  several times and loved it.  Because of the ocean crossing  most mainlanders never visit this beautiful Island  as often as we would like to.  it is definably worth planning a tour and committing to the date by writing your goal date to visit Tasmania again in save the date cards. Just get there. It is beautiful in all seasons.   This publication, The Rough Guide to Tasmania is a great place to start planning your tour.
