The smallest and the southernmost capital city of Australia, Hobart is artsy and exudes a charm making Tasmania unique. Summer is ideal for sailing and fishing or just about any sport out on the water. The snowcapped mountains are ideal for skiing during winter. The locals are laid back and take life on the bump. The cafes and bars that line the ocean front are characteristic of Hobart, and offer some of the best places to dine and wine. Enjoy the eccentric nature of the city, or head out to the outskirts and find thriving vegetation and wildlife just waiting to be discovered.
Whilst in the city make sure to visit, the historic Port Arthur, Australias oldest brewery Cascade, the beautiful Mount Field National Park, the beautiful architecture of Arthur Circus, the picturesque Salamanca Place, the art galleries down Hunter Street, the Maritimes Museum of Tasmania, Mount Wellington and the Cadbury Visitors Centre.
Found on number 100, Cadbury Road, Claremount is one of Hobarts best tourist attractions no matter the age, as long as you love chocolate. Wheelchair friendly with plenty of parking, closed on weekends and public holidays, the popularity of the place is evident from the number of visitors.
A Cadbury qualified guide will take your through the entire process of making chocolate, although the actual manufacturing process is not accessible, the experience is still worthwhile. One can be rest assured of plenty of samples along the tour. There is a video that runs on regular intervals explaining the history of the brand. Alongside this one will find a guide tell a more detailed version of the history in person.
The souvenir shop is brimming with quaint memorabilia and all mouthwatering selection of the beloved brand. It is best to ensure that tickets are bought in advance, as during peak season it maybe difficult to visit the Cadbury Visitors Centre. No doubt a must visit for people of all ages, this tourist attraction is a highlight among the many the city has to offer.
