Reviews
The Tasman Island Cruises Full Day Tour from Hobart was easily one of the highlights of my Tasmania trip. Our guide was incredibly friendly, helpful, and informative, making the whole day enjoyable from start to finish. The cruise was amazing—we saw stunning waterfalls, a historic lighthouse, playful seals, and even whales! The boat ride was exciting while still feeling very safe and well-organized. Other highlights included a lovely morning tea, delicious fish and chips for lunch (included), chocolate hazelnut ice cream (extra cost) at the Tasmanian Chocolate Foundry, and visits to the beautiful Safety Cove State Reserve and Remarkable Cave. Every activity was worth it, and I left with wonderful memories and a deeper appreciation for Tasmania's natural beauty. Highly recommended!
Booked Tasman Island by accident went over to the Pennicott Wilderness Centre horbat one day before the trip to change to Bruny Island for no extra charges. Really enjoyed the trip, you get a bus ride from Horbat to Bruny Island (45 mins + 15 mins cross island ferry + 45 mins to adventure bay breakfast (muffin coffee then 2 or 3 hr boat ride ) then 2 or 3 hr boat ride where u get to see Rocks formation, Blowhole and Cave. We are lucky to see Dolphine (rare) and Seal Colony (common) and birds that look like penguin but fly (common) and alot of Kelps and wild abalone on the rocks
One of the must do activities when in Hobart. We were lucky enough as the weather was perfect on the day we did the cruise. Saw many wildlife and the views were just spectacular. Tourguides were very knowledgeable and skillful at driving the boat.
safety: Very safe with crew emphasizing on safety! attractions on route: Impressive and breathtaking especially seeing wonders of nature sculpting the cliffs, and seeing seals itinerary: Well thought out value for money: Very worth it
It was a satisfying trip. In particular, since they let me sit at the very end of the cruise, I could take pictures while standing up. At the end of the cruise, they showed me where whales were coming out so I could see them. It was so much fun. The seals were so cute, and it was a fulfilling trip.
Very good day tour. Every aspect of the tour is very well planned and smooth. Stress-free tour...just enjoying. I found it a bit expensive but I think it's worth the money spent. Very informative guides.
Need to indicate the locations to visit after the 3 hours boat trip. Itinerary is not clear enough. Overall is fun & amazing. I’m truly satisfied and will definately recommend to all of my friends.
Amazing experience. This was the highlight of my Tasmania trip. If you have any doubts booking this, let this be your sign to book it!!
I really enjoyed the tour; the boat was constantly moving, and we didn't spend much time standing still. We saw some great views and even some seals.One idea is to take some fish and feed the seals. 😁
This ocean cruise tour is definitely worth it. You can see many marine landscapes that are usually hidden from view, as well as a variety of animals such as dolphins, seals, sea lions, and seabirds. The boat ride was quite smooth, though it occasionally sped up. The weather at sea can sometimes be unpredictable, so be sure to dress warmly!
