How YesDrive Is Supporting Local Tourism in Tasmania
Tasmania is one of Australia’s most unique travel destinations—offering a perfect mix of wild landscapes, historic towns, vibrant food scenes, and relaxed local charm. And as more Aussies and international travellers look to explore the island state, YesDrive is proud to play a part in supporting local tourism.
Whether you’re flying in from Sydney for a weekend escape or you’re a Tassie local keen on discovering new corners of your backyard, a hire car gives you the freedom to experience the best of the Apple Isle at your own pace. Here’s how YesDrive is helping travellers and locals alike explore Tasmania while boosting the local economy and tourism industry.

Making Tassie More Accessible—One Drive at a Time
For many travellers, Tasmania starts in Hobart—and with good reason. The capital city is home to world-class dining, history-rich architecture, and access to breathtaking natural landscapes. But the magic of Tasmania lies beyond the city limits, in its rugged coastlines, quiet country roads, and lesser-known gems.
That’s where YesDrive comes in. With convenient pick-up options in Hobart, we make it easy for visitors to explore regional areas like:
Freycinet Peninsula – Home to Wineglass Bay and stunning coastal walks
Port Arthur – A rich blend of history and nature just 90 minutes from Hobart
Huon Valley – Full of cider houses, farm gates, and forest adventures
Bruny Island – Easily accessible with your hire car via the ferry from Kettering
Whether you’re here for 48 hours or a full week, having a reliable, comfortable rental car opens up a world of travel possibilities.
Empowering Regional Tourism with Flexible Car Hire
One of the best ways to support Tasmania’s tourism economy is by getting off the beaten path—and with YesDrive, that’s exactly what you can do. Our fleet includes a wide range of vehicles to suit different kinds of road trips:
Compact cars for zipping around Hobart and nearby towns
Spacious SUVs for heading into national parks or up winding coastal roads
Family-friendly vehicles with extra luggage space for longer getaways
We know that regional areas depend on visitors to keep local businesses going, especially post-COVID. Every stop at a small-town café, local vineyard, or roadside art gallery contributes to keeping Tasmania’s tourism industry thriving—and a hire car gives you the freedom to go beyond the standard itinerary.
Partnering with Local Businesses and Attractions
YesDrive isn’t just about car rentals—we’re about community. We actively support and promote local tourism operators, experiences, and events throughout Tasmania.
When you book with YesDrive, our friendly Hobart team is always happy to recommend:
Local eateries and wineries that are off the radar but well worth a visit
Hidden beaches and scenic routes ideal for slow travel and picnics
Seasonal festivals and markets that celebrate Tasmania’s creative and culinary culture
We also collaborate with Tasmanian tour operators, eco-lodges, and regional event organisers to help more visitors explore the state responsibly and comfortably.
And if you’re flying in from Sydney, we’re ready to help you plan your Tasmanian adventure the moment you land in Hobart.
Supporting Sustainable Travel in Tasmania
We believe in preserving Tasmania’s pristine landscapes for future generations—and that means supporting sustainable travel practices. Here’s how we’re doing our part:
Fuel-efficient vehicles: Our modern fleet is designed to reduce emissions while offering comfort and reliability.
Encouraging off-peak travel: We promote road trips to lesser-known areas and during quieter travel periods, easing pressure on popular sites and supporting smaller towns.
Eco-conscious advice: Our team shares tips on how to tread lightly—such as bringing reusable containers, sticking to designated paths, and supporting eco-certified businesses.
We also encourage all travellers to follow the Leave No Trace principles while exploring Tasmania’s wild places.
