The morning cruise to the Island was spectacular and more than I could imagine. The afternoon add-on to Port Arthur was a big disappointment, not because of the site which is very interesting, but due to the fact that others who went to see the Tasmanian devils also ate a lovely lunch at a restaurant while we received bags of sandwiches and left on our own. This trip was very expensive and not worth the value. The 1/2 day cruise was the major attraction while the visit to Port Arthur seemed like an add on to allow combining different tours to all return together. Would not recommend this combo

Hundreds of dolphins on our boat tour around the Tasman Peninsula. So beautiful. This was one of the highlights of my trip to Tasmania.

Great waterside view of the rocky south coast of Tasmania, from the west side to the east side. The boat and guides were excellent. And the 3 hour free time period at Port Arthur prison yard was informative and worthwhile. Highly recommend!

This is a fantastic tour, we really enjoyed our experience on the cruise out to Tasman islands and getting to experience the sea caves and see the fur seal colonies. Our bus driver Alan was very good, the whole company is amazing and accommodating to all.
