Our tour to Port Arthur... - Our tour to Port Arthur was absolutely amazing, and a big part of that was thanks to Phill, our guide. He was by far the best instructor we’ve had on any tour! You could tell he genuinely loves his job—his enthusiasm was contagious. He kept the group engaged with his knowledge while adding humor to the experience, making it both fun and educational.
As for the tour itself, it’s completely worth every dollar. The views were breathtaking, and the itinerary felt perfectly curated for an unforgettable day. We didn’t visit the Port Arthur Historic Site, but we did go to the Tasmanian Devil Conservation Park, which was incredible! Everything was well-planned, even down to the lunch stop at the Port Arthur Lavender Farm, which was a lovely touch.
This tour exceeded all my expectations, and I’d highly recommend it—especially if Phill is your guide!

Gorgeous scenery, saw... - Gorgeous scenery, saw dolphins, seals and some sea birds. Boat can get bumpy - tour offers a ginger tablet for sea sickness. Highlight of the Tasmanian devil unzoo was the kangaroo feeding.

Amazing Tasman island cruise - Amazing tours I have to say, the nature's wonders with the beautiful views of the sea and land. A must-not-missed tour. This is paired with professional tour guides that give live commentary and showed schools or dolphins swimming around the sea. Also, they are professional in handing a person with motion sickness like me too.
Thumbs up 👍 and definitely a recommended tour.

Spectacular! - The view of the vertical dolerite cliffs was amazing. The natural beauty of creation!
Saw the Australian and New Zealand seals and had dolphins swimming around our boat, that was a great bonus to this wonderful trip!

Good but disappointing - The staff we encountered, Phil our bus driver, Kane the Captain and Damo his deck head were all brilliant. Unfortunately, we were stuck in the back seat. Your view is obstructed and these should be sold at a discount or not at all. Yes, you can stand up but you’re made to wear a ridiculously long spray jacket which makes it difficult to move.
