Nathan, our guide is friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. This excursion is also great value for the price we paid.
We appreciate your kind feedback. It is great to hear you enjoyed the day with Nathan. Hope to see you again soon.
I really enjoyed this tour, made even better with tour guide Rob who was excellent! We didn't go to the Chocolate Factory as there were 2 large buses already there, and the wait would have been ages. Doolishus van was a welcome sight for food and drink. The Lavender farm was lovely, although not as big as I expected. The gift shop had some lovely things and I could have spent an hour in there!! Finally to The Tasman Arch, When you first see it, it takes your breath away.....spectacular! There is so much more to Port Arthur than the penal colony and I am so glad I did this tour. Thank you Rob, our guide and driver!
Thank you for sharing your experience! We are so glad you enjoyed the tour with us! Hope to see you again.
We enjoyed visiting the Port Arthur and seeing the National Park with the sea cliffs and the Tasman Arch. The fish and chips was great.
Thank you for the wonderful review! Hope to see you again.
Our guide was great…waited a few extra minutes for us to get off the tender ship from the cruise ship. The pace was quick, but not hurried. We got to see a lot in a short amount of time, which was perfect for having to take water shuttles to and from the cruise ship.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We are glad you had a great experience. We hope to see you again in Tassie!
