Great way to see Port Arthur without a car

This tour is a great way to see Port Arthur without a car. The visit to Port Arthur includes a harbour cruise done together as a group with the remaining time left free to explore Port Arthur as you like. Our driver/guide Rod was very knowledgeable providing a lot of history on the drive and plenty of recommendations for things to eat, see, and do in Hobart.

Great small group tour

Great small group tour where we had opportunity to enjoy delicious food (oysters and cheese were highlights) and see plenty of the island including the lighthouse. Unfortunately weather wasn’t the best on the day however our guide Dave adapted it for the conditions. Dave was very knowledgeable sharing history about Hobart and Bruny island on the drive and was friendly and happy to answer questions.

Our driver Rob added to this experience!!

First the time frame of 9:30am-5:30pm was perfect. Really like the two short stops at the chocolate and lavender stores. We traveled with Rob, who is just great. his commentary along the way showed how knowledgeable he is of the area. I really liked when we got to Port Arthur that Rob took the time to walk the group in and in front of the penitentiary building he gave us some tips including where he thought would be the best starting spot.He answered all questions and genuinely wanted everyone to enjoy their time there. If you have the opportunity to leave Port Arthur, I little bit early and go see the Remarkable caves …do it. The views of Maingot bay and the cave are beautiful.

Wonderful day tour

We had an absolutely lovely time with Jodi! Another tour had fallen through and we booked last minute; very glad we did. She was knowledgeable, funny, and a delightful guide! Tour itself was also a great bite sized roundup of the wonders of Bruny, really packed a ton in for a day and had us home in time for dinner. Highly recommend!

kunanyi/Mt Wellington Explorer Bus- Return Tour (2.5 hours)

The bus to take to Mt Wellington!

So affordable for a great bus tour up to the mountain! Tony was the driver and have a fun commentary (and lots of puns). Wifi on the bus. It’s best to get a left hand side seat for the mountain side view when driving up. I took advantage of the hop on/off option and went off at the Fern Tree stop and did the Silver Falls walk. I had an 11am start and it was my last day in Hobart but next time I will do this tour again and see more of the mountain. The bus drivers communicated through radio so they knew I was to be picked up by the next bus on the way down and it was reassuring. It’s a really narrow shared busy road so better to take the bus if you don’t feel comfortable driving.

Exploring Tasmania

Today I participated on a Tour at Bruny island showing some food production as cheese & beer, honey, chocolates etc with tasting. We had on a beautiful location lunch with fresh Oysters and fish of the day. In between we had walks at the beach, in a private garden and in the rainforest. Dan was a very friendly and cultivated Guide and he explained us a lot about the history of Tasmania. Moreover the sun was shining and we had a wonderful and calm day!

Cradle Mountain OMG! Hobart to Cradle Active Day Trip

Margaret_W, Apr 2026

Excellent tour - don't miss out

This was the best tour experience we have ever had. Don't be afraid of the long day. Our tour guide Sam was very skilled at making strategic stops along the way to and from Cradle Mountain National Park so the drive did not feel too long. His music playlist was wonderful and I wish I had asked him for a copy. The trip is so well planned you never feel rushed or 'stuck'. It was perfect. Once you arrive at Cradle Mountain you have lots of options of hiking, strolling or hanging out at the lodge. You could also ride the park shuttle bus to each stop and get out to explore each area. We chose to walk around the lake, about a 3 mile trip. It was so beautiful and very manageable for two 70+ year olds. Don't miss out on this wonderful experience. On the way home we stopped for dinner at a local restaurant. Sam called our orders in ahead so dinner was ready when we arrived. This was so helpful in keeping the drive back to Hobart on schedule. We got back at 9-9:30 pm. Yes it is a long day but you won't regret taking this tour. It is our favorite memory of our time on Tasmania.

Great Guide/Driver

This was a fantastic full day tour, Jarrod the guide was very knowledgeable. However, I would recommend booking direct with iwandertassie.com as my sister is disabled and we weren't able use her companion card and concession card when booking with viator. I didn't realise viator is only a booking service :(
