This walking audio tour turned out to be one of the best ways to explore Devonport beyond just its cafes and beaches. Starting at the ferry terminal, David's tour takes you through Devonport Village and the surrounding volcanoes in a way that lets you put your phone away and walk with confidence, noticing things you’d otherwise miss. The tour really brings the village to life.
