Beautiful day trip to Port Arthur and an easy way to see Tasman Peninsula. Our driver Mark was very funny and attentive! The time we had in Port Arthur was closer to 3 hours than 4.5 hours like it says on the itinerary, but still enough to see the most important parts.
Great experience- would recommend!

Great day with a lot packed into it. Phil, our driver and tour guide, was a delight and easy to listen to. He was very knowledgeable about the area. Port Arthur was much more than I imagined. Would absolutely recommend to anyone.
