ALL4 Adventure
For teams that crave adrenaline and fun, ALL4’s all-terrain vehicle adventures deliver an unforgettable ride. Located in Coles Bay on the Freycinet Peninsula, ALL4 provides guided ATV tours through otherwise inaccessible corners of Freycinet National Park. Your team can rev up 2-seater or 3-seater buggies and weave through eucalypt-covered hills, coastal woodlands, and boulder-strewn valleys – emerging at breathtaking lookouts over Wineglass Bay or secluded beaches. It’s an exhilarating way to discover Freycinet’s pink granite peaks and turquoise waters together.
ALL4 delivers the perfect blend of fun and adventure in a truly unique, world-class destination.
ALL4 caters to all skill levels (no prior experience needed) and operates year-round, making it easy to slot into any event program. Their tours have proven extremely popular with both large and small groups, and can even be combined with other activities for a full incentive itinerary. Standard tours accommodate up to 20 people at once, but ALL4 can coordinate larger group adventures on request – perfect for conference break-outs or reward trips.
Tasmanian Wild Seafood Adventures
Combine Lutruwita / Tasmania’s famed seafood with a voyage on the open waters, and you get Tasmanian Wild Seafood Adventures – a “deep-to-dish” team experience blending nature, culture, and culinary indulgence. Departing from Hobart’s waterfront aboard Cuttlefish (a 55-ft luxury catamaran), your group will cruise down the Derwent River to the D’Entrecasteaux Channel and around Bruny Island. Towering sea cliffs and secluded bays set a dramatic scene as you glide along at a leisurely pace, spotting marine life like seals, dolphins, or even whales along the way.
The team aims to personally connect with every guest, sharing fishing stories and imparting their passion for the sea.
Meanwhile, two experienced diver–guides don their wetsuits and plunge beneath the waves. Moments later they resurface with a treasure trove of Lutruwita / Tasmania’s freshest seafood – periwinkles, sea urchins, abalone, rock lobster, oysters, mussels, and more – all harvested sustainably from the pristine waters and ready for the onboard chef to turn it into a feast.
Cradle Mountain Canyons
Trade the boardroom for a slot canyon and discover what your team is truly capable of! Cradle Mountain Canyons leads groups into the secret side of Lutruwita / Tasmania’s Wilderness World Heritage Area – hidden realms of crystal-clear rivers, rainforests, and rugged gorges carved into the mountains. Here, in the north-west highlands near Cradle Mountain, your delegates can tackle a range of guided adventures: canyoning (traversing river canyons by swimming, rock scrambling, and abseiling down waterfalls), packrafting (hiking with inflatable rafts to run remote rapids), or kayaking on alpine lakes. Whether your colleagues are thrill-seekers or more reserved, Cradle Mountain Canyons has an option to suit everyone’s comfort zone – and beyond.
The Truffle Farm Tasmania
If your idea of team building leans more toward gourmet than grit, then a truffle hunting expedition might be just the ticket. The Truffle Farm Tasmania, invites corporate groups to immerse themselves in the rich agricultural landscape of the state’s north. This is the home of Australia’s first black truffle farm, founded by the pioneering Terry family who introduced truffle cultivation to the country. Delegates will hear the captivating story of how these prized culinary gems took root in Tasmanian soil – a journey of passion, patience, and innovation.
Under the guidance of second-generation truffle farmer Anna Terry, your team will follow her highly trained dogs into the truffière (truffle orchard). The atmosphere is one of hushed excitement as the dogs sniff out ripe black truffles hidden beneath the earth.
Come and join the hunt and dig up some magic of your own!
After the thrill of the hunt, your group is rewarded with a decadent tasting straight from the source. Freshly unearthed truffle is shaved over a gourmet lunch or sample platter, accompanied by local cheeses, breads, and even the farm’s signature truffle ice cream. Beyond the delicious flavours, participants walk away with new knowledge about farm-to-table practices and an appreciation for Lutruwita / Tasmania’s sustainable producers.
In Lutruwita / Tasmania’s wilderness, team building becomes an adventure in its own right. Whether your group is cruising past seals and sea cliffs, revving ATVs over bush tracks, feasting on freshly caught seafood, canyoning through ancient gorges, or foraging for truffles, each activity enables colleagues to connect in meaningful ways. These experiences go far beyond the conventional “team exercise” – they immerse your delegates in Tasmania’s culture and natural beauty, sparking genuine camaraderie and inspiration.
