Port Arthur tours

Amazing 3 hours morning sightseeing cruise tour from the town of Port Arthur Tasmania. The tour guide provided us the bright red wind/spray proof jackets, as well as the safety instructions before the zodiac ride. The exciting cruise first toured around the beautiful Stewarts Bay and Port Arthur. On the way towards Cape Pillar, we came across a large pod of common dolphins swimming and even jumping by the side of our boat! That was a breathtaking experience! And then the boat cruised along the spectular hundreds metres tall dolerite sea cliffs at the cape where we spotted some fur seals resting on the rocks. The guide then drove us around the unique Tasman Island, which was a very isolated flat top island outside the Tasman Peninsula with a white lighthouse on its top. All visitors to Tasman Peninsula are recommended to join this Tasman Island Cruise (the 3 hrs tour is operated 2 sessions daily, morning or afternoon).

Very knowledgeable guide who showed us all the important tourist attractions on the way and gave amole time to explore Port Arthur historic site. Highly recommended this for hassle free and enjoyable experience in Hobart

Great experience in the one hour Port Arthur Historical Site Convict Tour. Our tour guide Jet led our group walking around yhe well-preserved site, immersing us in the history of the Port Arthur penal institution between 1830 and 1877, learning interesting stories about the buildings, penal system and the convicts daily life at those days. Highly recommended for any visitor to Hobart and southeast Tasmania.

Had a great time viewing the seaside geographical features of the Tasman Island! We managed to see dolphin calves and seals as well. Port Arthur is also beautiful. Just make sure you are prepared that it can get very chilly (late July) on the cruise.

driver guide is professional. the time assigned in each spot is right time, with full 4 hours on port arthur site. 4 hours is not enough if one would like to look at each building in detail but this is how much you can do with a tour. overall very good experience

The itinerary was very rich, including visiting the landscapes along the way, representative animals in the zoo, personally feeding kangaroos and birds, visiting the World Heritage Site in Port Arthur in the afternoon, and also stopping by the small town of Richmond. There were not many people in the group. The tour bus picked up and dropped off directly outside the hotel. The tour guide was very responsible. In addition to driving, he also kept explaining the history and culture of Tas along the way. He also took care of the needs of each group member. It is worth recommending.

the tour is very rich in culture and informative ive enjoy my tour here. And learned a lot. and also the tour guide is very energetic

I participated in this one-day tour with my family. We did not drive ourselves, so this group suited our needs and included a tour bus, which was very convenient. The driver introduced Hobart's attractions and deeds while driving, which was very interesting.
