The day was very, very long. Started at 7:45am, finished at 6:45pm. This tour catered mainly for people who wanted to hike in Tasman National Park, as Port Arthur is a drop off and pick up point. We spent 5 hours walking around the site and going on a brief harbour cruise, we then had to sit and wait 1 and a half hours till 4:30 for the bus. For people like myself, who only want to visit Port Arthur this tour probably isn’t for you.
Thank you for your feedback, Kathryn. We’re pleased to hear you enjoyed visiting the Port Arthur Historic Site, but we appreciate your comments regarding the length of the day. This tour is designed to provide guests with ample time to explore the Port Arthur Historic Site at their own pace, while also accommodating those participating in alternative afternoon experiences within the Tasman region. We understand that individual preferences vary, and for guests primarily interested in Port Arthur, the amount of free time may feel longer than expected. We appreciate you sharing your experience, as it helps future travellers choose the option that best suits their interests and expectations. Thank you for travelling with us. Cheers Melinda

Informative and interesting commentary on the bus. Our bus driver, Murray was friendly and very helpful. It was a long but very enjoyable day at the site with excellent talks by the guides. The cafe served good food and catered well for those with dietary requirements.Such a beautiful location.

Thanks again for travelling with us — we’re so glad you had such an enjoyable day! 😊 Cheers Melinda
Excellent day out. Bus times were spot on and the driver, Ben, was very personable and informative. Because we were a little ahead of schedule, he stopped at the Pirate Bay lookout on the way to Port Arthur and chose a more scenic drive back to Hobart in the afternoon- very much appreciated by all on board.
Thank you for your lovely review, Carolyn! We’re so pleased to hear you had such a great Tasmanian experience with us. It’s wonderful to know everything ran smoothly and that Ben made such a positive impression. He’ll be delighted to hear your kind words. Adding in those extra scenic touches, like Pirate Bay lookout and the coastal drive, really helps make the day even more special. We truly appreciate you travelling with us and hope to welcome you back again soon! Cheers Melinda
We learned so much of what actually happened in Port Arthur. We were not aware that convicts came to Tasmania, only other parts of Australia. The information about the young boys was very disturbing even for that time. Driver was good, and bus was comfortable.
Thank you for your review. We're pleased you found the visit to Port Arthur so informative — it is a powerful place with an important and often confronting history. We're also glad to hear the journey was comfortable and that your driver helped make the day an enjoyable one. Thanks for travelling with us. Cheers Melinda
We booked a full day trip with Gray Line tours. Firstly a massive shout out to our Bus driver Colin Dean. Well organised and not one hiccup. Fantastic knowledge of everything historical from Hobart to Port Arthur and every little village in between, made for an amazing day out. Also loved his ‘Dad’ jokes. Our trip took in so many highlights including Tasmans Arch, Remarkable Cave and a brilliant chocolate foundry. Plenty of photo ops also. Port Arthur itself was incredible and well beyond what I expected. Thank you Colin for a great day.
Thank you for your wonderful review. We’re so pleased you had such a memorable day exploring the Tasman Peninsula and Port Arthur. It’s fantastic to hear Colin helped make the journey so enjoyable with his knowledge, organisation and a few good dad jokes along the way! We really appreciate the recommendation. 😊 Cheers Melinda
Lots to see, site on slope so some climbs involved. Interesting history about men and boys who were sentenced there.
Dear Jennifer Thank you for joining our bus service to the Port Arthur Historic Site tour and for sharing your review. We’re glad you found the history interesting and appreciated the depth of stories told across the site. You’re absolutely right that the site is set on sloping ground, and we appreciate you highlighting that for future visitors. Thanks again for travelling with us. Cheers Melinda
It was very long, finished everything and still 3 hours left for the return. It would be great if the bus departs earlier than 4:45 PM knowing that you already in the site by 9:30 AM and activities take 3 hours at maximum.
Thank you for travelling with us to the Port Arthur Historic Site and for sharing your feedback. We appreciate you letting us know how the timing felt on the day.

It is very exposed will need to rug up if forecast for cold weather. Great time. The staff were very friendly.
Thank you for joining our bus service to the Port Arthur Historic Site and for sharing your review. You’re absolutely right — the Site can be quite exposed, so warm layers are always a good idea. We’re glad you had a great time and that our friendly staff helped make the day enjoyable. Cheers Melinda
The Pennicott’s driver picked us up from a hotel near where we were staying. The driver from Hobart to Port Arthur also had a toilet stop which was considerate. The Port Arthur site is serviced by a very well appointed visitor’s centre, the site itself is NOT to be missed while visiting Hobart. Going with Pennicott tours everything was organised for us and all the staff were very nice and helpful.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. Cheers Melinda
