Port Arthur & Tasmanian Devils Day Tour

Get ready for a whirlwind adventure! Departing from Hobart, journey towards the stunning Tasman Peninsula. This area is renowned for its rich history, fascinating stories and spectacular scenery. Home to Australia's highest sea cliffs, your first stop is Pirates Bay Lookout, offering panoramic views of the stunning coastline. As you pass through Eaglehawk Neck and "The Dogline," your knowledgeable guides will share fascinating tales of the region. Embark on one of Tasmania's "Great Short Walks" along the Waterfall Bay Clifftop. This short but spectacular track showcases the peninsula's dramatic rock formations of the "Tasman Arch" and "Devil's Kitchen." Next stop is the Tasmanian Devil Unzoo, arriving for all the action of a Tasmanian Devil Feeding! Watch in awe as these iconic Australian animals snarl, fight and bone crush in a spectacle of devilish behaviour. Afterwards, hand-feed friendly wallabies and explore the charming "Unzoo" surroundings. Your journey continues to the infamous Port Arthur Historic Site. With approximately 2.5 hours to explore this World Heritage open-air museum, delve into the depths of Australia's penal history through a guided tour among the main penitentiary, solitary confinement cells and a haunting harbour cruise around the the Isle of the Dead. Get a sense of the isolation experienced by the convicts in this “inescapable prison." As the day winds down, continue through the charming town of Richmond, where history and charm intertwine. Stroll across Australia's oldest bridge, a convict-built sandstone structure rumored to be haunted, and savor local treats from the local Lolly Shop and Chocolatier! Return to Hobart around 6:00 pm.
