I am very enjoying the 3 hours cruise and the nice views of every spot. The timing for both tours are well planned.
Exciting Tasman Island Cruise!

We loved this cruise! It was amazing to watch all those ancient rocks formations! The captain maneuvered the cruise very skillfully around different rocks so that we could enjoy a 360 * view. The scenery on the Tasman sea was so beautiful!! We even saw some Dolphins playing and some Seals on the rocks! The tour in Port Arthur was very interesting and Informative to learn about the prison system. The tour guide had made a very good arrangement for breakfast & Coffee and also a delicious lunch! All in all the Tasman Island Cruise was very exciting and we thoroughly enjoyed it! We do have one comment though. We would have felt safer if the captain had all the tourists wear life vests, considering the high waves. Especially important for people like us who cannot swim. Other than this, the cruise was perfectly enjoyable! The Captain was very nice to give everyone the Ginger tablets as a remedy for motion sickness. We highly recommend this Cruise!!
Great way to see the sights

The cruise was breathtaking and included tons of dolphins and seals. Dress warm for the boat, but it was definitely the highlight. Phil - was knowledgeable and kept us on schedule. He even helped us retrieve an item left behind at the cafe.
Great cruise but overpriced on the whole

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.
