A Different Pace of Discovery
Not just a journey.
Your journey.
Tasmania offers some of the world’s cleanest air, most dramatic coastlines, and pristine cool-climate terroir — but it is not somewhere you want to rush.
Latitude 42 offers personalized, multi-day private journeys across Tasmania for discerning guests who value comfort, flexibility, and authentic Australian hospitality. We’ve traded the crowds of coach tours and the stress of navigating winding island roads for a seamless, private experience.
“With your own luxury vehicle and a local host who quietly handles every detail, you are free to discover the island’s hidden stories at your own perfect pace.”

Behind Latitude 42
Meet Brad — Your Host & Tasmanian Insider
“Tasmania has a way of slowing you down — in the best possible way.”
After years of working with people from around the world, I founded Latitude 42 Concierge to offer something different from traditional chauffeur services. Not formal. Not corporate. And certainly not rushed. I believe the best travel experiences come from feeling comfortable, unhurried, and genuinely welcomed.
Why do I do this?
Over years of exploring the backroads of Ireland, Scotland, and the UK, I kept hearing the same story from fellow travelers: they loved the landscape, but they were tired. Navigating unfamiliar winding roads, complex logistics, and missing the scenery because your eyes are glued to the GPS turns a dream trip into stressful work.
I created Latitude 42 to bridge that gap. My goal is to provide a reliable, relaxed, and local pair of hands—someone who knows the island’s secrets and quietly ensures your journey is as effortless as it is authentic.
What You Can Expect
- Calm, confident driving
- Flexible plans to suit you
- Genuine conversation (or quiet)
- Attentive personal comfort
- Authentic Australian personality
- I’ll buy coffee or share a beer
