My wife and I went there for a 2 week holiday. Loved it so much we quit our jobs and moved over there. Stayed 5 years.
So much to see. Port Arthur is great and the night ghost tour is chilling.
Salamanca market on Saturday morning is terrific if you like that sort of thing. The gardens between Salamanca place and the CBD are interesting with all the old tombstones there. Cascade Brewery is special and difficult to leave once inside.
You could probably spend a whole week in the Hobart area and only see a portion of it.
If you are driving between Hobart and Launceston visit Richmond and Ross, two historical towns just off the highway.
If you manage to get to Launceston, Cataract Gorge is a must see.

Enjoy your trip.
