We had lots of problems getting off our ship, but with one call to the office, they hooked us up with a driver to meet us at our ship, drive us to our coach on the highway and secured our very wonderful day of touring. Everyone was top notch, and our guides at Port Arthur Historical site were excellent. The tour to Isle of the Dead was really worthwhile. We had someone with us that was somewhat incapacitated, and the little golf cart trolleys were extremely helpful. Really worthwhile day of touring!

Everything was great apart from the driver. He was a bit impatient and rude to other passengers, not to me. He didn't really explain to us what we have to do, like the time of the cruise. I know it's written on the ticket, but he should have told us the difference between different tickets and what we can do there, etc. Devils Kitchen and Port Arthur are very good!!

This is a tour that no one should miss. I felt a connection with the surroundings.

The tour was good, but was a bit brief to reach its full potential. Although the day was well organised, the early leaving time from the venue in the afternoon meant that we couldn't enjoy the venue to the full.

Very good tour to Port Arthur. The tour guide was very well informed. Port Arthur is a great place to go for an idea of how Australia started as a penal colony. Would recommend.

Can't believe Port Arthur has a such sad history. Definitely worth visiting.

I struggle with the option it could have been better to I do not recommend it. The bus broke down before we started. I understand this was unavoidable but the bus driver did not have to make a joke about it. hen we were at Port Arthur he did the walking tour because we missed the 1130. I felt he was rude in pushing everyone along, 'don't read the signs, you don't have time!' Not very well appreciated especially since we had very elderly people on the tour and they were struggling to keep up. He could have gotten the shuttle for us to make the tour quicker. Also where we were to have lunch. They ran out of sandwiches.
