    I was a bit worried I might get bored spending the day on the cruise and at Port Arthur, but I couldn’t have been more wrong. The coastline views were absolutely mesmerising, and the three hours on the water flew by. There was also so much to explore while walking around the historic Port Arthur site. I couldn’t recommend this tour highly enough.

    Great day. Bus driver Murray was very friendly and informative of the area. Dress warmly/correctly for the boat ride/sea conditions. It was an adventure and the skipper and deck hand was very knowledgeable with a little human. Port Arthur was wonderful and an eye opener about our Australian History.

    The tour was well planned and organised however the tour guides were less interactive and attentive then previous tours I've been on. I had an individual vomit next to me on the boat and was only moved to another seat, not offered any cloths etc to clean up my pants or shoes.

    We had an amazing day on the Tasman Island Cruises and Port Arthur Historic Site Day Tour from Hobart. The views were stunning, the cruise was exciting, and Port Arthur was full of history. What really made the day special was our driver, Paul he was friendly, funny, and full of great local knowledge. He kept everything running smoothly and made sure we were comfortable the whole time. It was a long day, but so worth it. If you’re thinking about doing this tour, I highly recommend it and hope you get Paul as your guide!

    The tour was planned out very well, fast communication as well. The food provided was great, especially at Port Arthur. The staff on the boat were very helpful and friendly. It was a rainy and cloudy day when we went but still, the views of the cliffs and wildlife was amazing, definitely a "must-do" when in Tasmania.

    The Tasman island cruise is worth it for sure! It gets cold on the way back, dress warm. If you're prone to seasickness, skip, but it depends on the sea conditions. We saw whales, seals, birds, and bottlenose dolphins but the highlight is just the dolomite rocks. Unbelievable

    Amazing this walk, would definitely do again. The boat ride was the best part, asked to tighten up the belts, then we understand, it is emotion after emotion in the waves and near the rocks. We saw sea lions and dolphins. Show.
