TAILORED SPECIFICALLY FOR CRUISE SHIP PASSENGERS. The historical site isn’t the only reason people flock to Port Arthur. Whilst docked here, don’t miss the chance to explore outside of the sandstone walls of the historic site. The Tasman Peninsular offers so much! Picturesque landscapes, spectacular rock formations, breathtaking views of some of the tallest sea cliffs in the Southern Hemisphere and so much more. A good half-day trip isn’t a great trip without the accompaniment of fine local produce, which Tasmania is known and loved for. Which is why we will take you to the Blow Hole where you can purchase fresh local seafood in a spectacular setting. We will also call into the Port Arthur Lavender Farm and Federation Chocolate where you can treat yourself if you have a sweet tooth!
Highlights of the tour include:
Lavender Farm – wander around the grounds, opportunity to buy something to eat and drink and browse their gift shop.
Devils Kitchen and the Tasman Arch – amazing natural rock formations and a viewing platform of some of the tallest sea cliffs in the Southern Hemisphere and views of the Southern Ocean.
Blow Hole – a chance to buy some lunch and sample some of Tasmania’s finest and freshest seafood at the famous food stall.
Federation Chocolate – if you have a sweet tooth, then a nibble on some free samples will top off your lunch! An opportunity to purchase some produce and souvenirs.

Great day! Was my last favorite of the 4 but I'm glad I did it because it's a different part of Tasmania than the other 3 days. Beautiful countryside and great stops.
Smallest group on this tour so I enjoyed that.
Hobart Highlights- Guide: Mark
Started at Salamanca Market. Bummer that Mt Wellington road was closed so we did not get to go up. We drove up as far as we could and played in the snow but I was looking forward to the lookout view. At Richmond, I went through the jail on my own and enjoyed being at my own pace; there were only a couple people besides me there. Bonorong was great feeding the kangaroos!!!
Port Arthur- Guide: Mark again
I will advise that there's not enough time at Port Arthur to properly see it on this tour, so if you're someone who wants to go in each building, read all the signs, listen to the guides, look their the museum, and do the ferry, there's not enough time!!! For most people who just want to see it, it's probably enough time for you but I was overwhelmed with how much I missed. I do recommend the ferry since it goes around Isle of the Dead and they're talking through the ride. If you get nauseous, go stand outside though (it's a VERY smooth, short ride, with bakery/cafe/ coffee items to purchase on board)
Bruny Island- Guide: Pascal
My favorite tour! My favorite guide!
Great day, we had great weather! Very knowledgeable about the plants/animals and history/people. Lucky to see 4 white wallabies.
I highly recommend Tassie Tours! So easy, bringing you right back where they picked you up. They take care of you and give you time at each stop. They ARE PUNCTUAL so if they say they'll be there at 7:06, they really mean 7:06! No problems at all. All super great and knowledgeable guides.
Side note: on my last day I did a great tour on my own at the Hobart Female Factory.
Would recommend to people of all ages!
I would definitely recommend to friends.

Huge thanks to our amazing guide and driver, Gray, for making this trip so wonderful. Throughout the whole journey, he shared so much practical information, and the pace of the entire itinerary was incredibly smooth.
The real highlight of his exceptional service happened at the very end. I completely spaced out and missed the first drop-off at the Launceston Transit Centre. Gray was an absolute lifesaver! He went above and beyond to make sure I still caught my connecting bus right on time. Truly grateful for his kindness and professionalism, highly recommend him!

Highly recommend Pascal!

He was incredibly punctual for all the pick-ups and drop-offs, which made the logistics completely stress-free. What really set this tour apart was his extensive knowledge; he provided so much deep insight into Port Arthur and all the different attractions around Hobart.
On top of that, Pascal has a fantastic sense of humor that kept the entire journey lively, engaging, and never boring. It was a thoroughly satisfying and enriching experience. Thank you, Pascal, for such a memorable trip!
Jodi made our tour experience lots of fun and very intetesting with all her kmowledge.
I found Tassi tours to be very professional and wouldnt hesitate booking another tour with Jodi as my tour guide.

I just finished the Bruny Island tour today (Thursday, 9th April), and honestly, I am still buzzing!
The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and the entire day was so seamlessly planned. But what truly made the experience was our guide, Brunzy. He was the absolute standout—incredibly informative, organized, and he went above and beyond to ensure every single person had the best day possible.
By the end of the tour, I didn’t feel like just another tourist; I felt like I’d spent the day with a local friend. Brunzy, thank you so much for the laughs and the hospitality! And don't forget... you have to try that rum!
I cannot recommend Tassie Tours highly enough. If you’re in Tasmania, do yourself a favour and book a trip with them.

We did a full‑day tour that started with a beautiful ferry ride over to the island and then turned into a perfect mix of food, walks and views. Our first stop was Get Shucked for takeaway oysters : plump, fresh, with a light Asian dressing, which we carried up the wooden stairs to The Lookout. Sitting at the top, slurping oysters while looking out over that incredible coastline, was one of those “pinch me, is this real?” moments. (There is a loo down there, but it’s a very basic long‑drop style, so be prepared!)
From there we wandered into the lush fern forests of Mavista. It genuinely felt like walking onto a Lord of the Rings set , cool, green and quiet , and we even spotted a shy Tassie Devil on our easy hike.
The day is also a joy if you love food. We stopped at the Bruny Island Honey store, which is a sweet little spot, and the Bruny Baker roadside fridge , the sourdough aroma alone is worth it. Lunch was relaxed and satisfying, and afterwards we visited a gorgeous little cove where you can swim, so definitely pack a swimsuit and a towel if the weather is kind.
We finished at the local chocolaterie, which for us was the only slightly “meh” stop in an otherwise amazing day , everything else more than made up for it.
All in all, the tour was beautifully paced and showed off just how stunning and special Bruny Island is. Go! You will love this tour. Steve took us and he was great
We had a nice day.
However, she offered very limited information while driving and did not go with the guests on the first stop, she just pointed (it was raining, maybe she did not want to get wet). The final stop she walked with us after our request, but did not add any information during the walk to the wildlife refuge.
This was not so much a round as a bur ride to 3 areas in Hobart.
But overall great experience and my tour guide Sky was very informative and engaging :)
The food on Bruny is insane! I cannot recommend you try the oysters more highly. Best in the world. The beautiful lagoon we stopped at for a swim was so idyllic and the water was actually way warmer than I expected it to be - don't forget your bathers!
I loved how you could 'choose your own adventure' on the Wineglass Bay tour. I chose to walk down the 1000 steps to the beach and WOW! I'm so glad I did. What a spectacular part of the world. I cannot recommend these tours more highly 😍
A little piece of paradise for sure.
Highly recommend
We booked the full day (10 hour) tour to Bruny Island and it was an amazing experience. The directions for meet up were clear and the driver was on time. The coffee and breakfast options at the ferry were delicious and we enjoyed getting out of the car on the ferry ride over. Every stop was intentional and informative. We walked a lot and had the option to enjoy great food and snacks along the way. Our driver brought us to some amazing beaches and his guidance and humor was top notch. The memories and photos we have of our day will be cherished. Thank you, Andrew, for a great time!
Thumb up to him, and thankfully we have seen some wildlife here in Tasmania.
As well as we do enjoy the history about Australia and Tasmania.
Yeah, we have a good wrap up for our tour with really delicious oysters.
Great plan and heartfully thanks, and appreciate for Nathan's plan.
Best regards, Amy from Singapore.
Beautiful views, good food, wild nature and great talks!
I would highly recommend it
On my day trip, the Tahune air walk was cancelled. The company refunded a portion of our payment for the airwalk, without any prompting from us. I have been cheated by other tour companies before, so I really appreciate this.
Our tour guide (?Juno/Johno/Juneau) was so friendly and kind. I had lost my jacket and it was cold, so he offered me his jackets throughout the day. It's a shame I hesitated asking him to clarify his name 😅.
The rest of the tour, Hasting caves- spectacular and apple pie- great touch to the trip.
Highly recommend Tassie tours in general and this particular tour.
