About Us

Come aboard our cute little vessel Jus' Leven and experience the wilderness of the Leven River in Ulverstone Tasmania. Long Tours include an exclusive guided tour of our secluded 31 acre fauna and fauna sanctuary (est. 1890) located 7 klm's up the beautiful Leven River. Relax, take a seat and tuck into a scrumptious 3 course BBQ meal prepared fresh on site within our very bushy Bar & BBQ shelter among the ferns and Blackwoods of North West Tasmania. Follow in the footsteps of nearly 120 years of visitors and enjoy the natural untouched beauty of the sanctuary, the birds and the river.

After something different. A cruise or tour with a difference. Water interests, waterway education, environmental knowledge, understanding the future of waterways, wildlife, flora, fauna, close up interaction with nature. Tasmanian native bush and close viewing of the amazing man-fern tree. Test your five senses; touch, see, smell, taste and hear unique nature of the Leven River, Ulverstone Tasmania
