Spirit of Tasmania Chief Executive Officer Charles Griplas said Tasmania was well suited to touring by car.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

\u201cThe state may look small on a map, but there is a lot to see and do and no better way to do it than in your own car,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n


<\/span><\/div>\n
\u201cThe obvious link between our vessels and the\u00a0Cruising Tasmania<\/i>\u00a0guide is that you can drive on in Melbourne and drive off in Devonport, ready to begin your touring adventure in Tasmania.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n


<\/span><\/div>\n
\u201cThe biggest benefit of sailing with Spirit of Tasmania and taking your own car is the ease of travel.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n


<\/span><\/div>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a stress-free, relaxing experience, meaning no waiting at airports in long queues, no delays for your bags and no taxi and car hire fees.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n


<\/span><\/div>\n
\u201cWe have plenty of leg room, an array of Tasmanian produce and wine available in our bars and restaurants and you can pack as much luggage as you can fit in your car.\u201d<\/p>\n
