The flight one way. The road the other.

Air and Earth is our answer to the most common question we hear: is it worth flying? Do both. Take the helicopter between Hobart or Launceston and Friendly Beaches in about 35 minutes, and travel the other direction in our brand new LandCruiser 300 with a private driver.

On the road leg you set the pace. Stop for oysters at Swansea or Coles Bay, a tasting at Devil's Corner or Spring Vale, or a walk at a lookout, and we carry the luggage for both legs.
