Looking to visit the multi-award-winning UNESCO World Heritage Site of Port Arthur? Want to explore some of the Tasman Peninsula’s highlights along the way? Or simply need transport to the area? This tour has you covered!

Port Arthur and the Tasman Peninsula are among Tasmania’s most iconic destinations. With a blend of rich history and stunning scenery, it’s easy to see why this region is one of the state’s top attractions. This popular tour lets you experience it all in one unforgettable day, with one of our friendly local drivers eager to share their knowledge and ensure you have a fantastic time.

On the way to Port Arthur, enjoy a scenic stop at Pirates Bay Lookout before visiting the Dog Line Monument at Eaglehawk Neck. Then satisfy your sweet tooth at the Tasmanian Chocolate Foundry before heading to the picturesque Port Arthur Lavender Farm. Browse unique handmade lavender products and take a relaxing stroll along the fragrant lavender trail.

Next is the highlight of the day—the Port Arthur Historic Site. Step back in time and explore the best-preserved penal settlement in Australia. Entry is at your own cost and includes a 20-minute harbour cruise. Spend up to four hours discovering the site’s fascinating and often dark history.

For those wanting an extra stop, you can rejoin the bus after three hours for a short trip to the Remarkable Cave. Just eight minutes’ drive away, this natural wonder offers breathtaking views over Maingon Bay and Penguin Rocks. Descend 115 steps to a viewing platform framed by towering sandstone cliffs and gaze through the cave’s famous opening.
