Port Arthur, Richmond & Tasman Peninsula Active Day Tour

I booked this one-day tour covering Port Arthur, the Eaglehawk Neck Dog Line, and Richmond. The experience far exceeded my expectations! Our guide, MAX, was incredibly attentive. He elaborated on the colonial history and convict stories behind every landmark, bringing those historical facts to life in an engaging and easy-to-understand way. Along the journey, he pointed out wildlife, and we were lucky enough to spot wombat footprints. He also shared many interesting local, lesser-known facts. MAX is polite, gentlemanly, and the tour pace was perfectly relaxed without any rushed schedule. I highly recommend this guided tour for anyone eager to explore the history of Southern Tasmania!

We had a wonderful day on this tour. We walking over 18,000 steps. The walk along the Tasmin Peninsula was beautiful. The rock formations and ocean were amazing. We saw lots of birds and small animals. We also saw a pademelon. We then went to the UnZoo. We got to feed the Kangaroos, geese, and wallabys. We got to watch the feeding of the Tasmanian devils. They also had a bird show but an eagle showed up so all the birds went into hiding. It was nice to have time to explore the UnZoo. Then we went to Port Arthur. We could have spent two days easy exploring the area it was a bit rushed here but we would not have given up our time at the other locations… so we went back the next day. This is where you buy lunch. Then our tour went to Richmond. We got to see the convict bridge, the oldest church and walked around. It rained quite a bit off and on all afternoon. We were pleased with all we got to do and experience. The tour was lovely. We enjoyed everything. Totally recommend 5 / 5 !!

Nic is our tour guide, providing interesting facts and histories about Hobart and Port Arthur during our trips. We set out in a beautiful sunny morning, with a brief stop at Dunalley for Denison Canal, followed by waterfall bay bush walk where we saw different views towards iconic Cape Hauy, and the famous Devils Kitchen as well as Tasman Arch at the end of the walk. The walk is highly recommended, stunning views along the way. Nic drove us through interesting Doo town where every house has their own “doo” (you’ll figure out what it is during the tour). Then we had 4 hours in Port Arthur. Time is sufficient for a round trip in the historic site. We stopped by Richmond for 30 mins or so, where we had a nice view of the bridge and savored a scallop pie. The itinerary is good, we did not feel rush. I particularly love the bush walk with amazing view. Thanks Nic for the great arrangement.

A very good option of tour where you get to know in details about Convict history in Port Arthur. The guide is very knowledgable and inform everything. I got to also visit a chocolate factory and see how it made.

I chose this tour because it has a bit of everything, the Tasmanian nature sightseeing, some wallabies and joeys, and historic site at the Port Arthur. Some walking in the morning in the national park and 4 hours (incl lunch and a short cruise) at Port Arthur. On the way back you also get to visit Richmond

What I liked most about this trip was the serene and peaceful alone time, where I could spend quiet moments with the Lord during an hour-long bush walk. The lookouts along the way were incredibly picturesque, especially at Devil's Kitchen. Port Arthur Historic Site was fascinating — vast and rich with history, offering so much to explore and learn. A must-try treat is the Valhalla Lavender Ice Cream at Sweet & Treats in Richmond Valley.

nice friendly tour guide Tony picked us up and started heading to port Arthur. along the way we stop at cliffs with stunning views and amazing rocks. learnt so much amount port Arthur and it’s historical history. definitely worth checking it out

Good tour, our guide, Heather is very knowlegeable and shows she really loves her job. Weather was a bit erratic, which did add to the gloomy past of the visited sites.
