Testimonials
BOOKED DATE: Saturday 30 April 2011
"The tour was professionally run with great commentary during the journey from Hobart. The tour group was roughly 12 in size, so it meant we all chatted and had a few jokes making the journey seem quite short.
Our guide was very knowledgeable and also played different parts of a DVD based on the actual life and hardships of one of the convicts of Port Arthur.
Along the way we stopped at Richmond, which was an interesting village. Managed to get a number of photos from the village including the oldest bridge in Tasmania (built by convicts I believe).
A photo opportunity at Pirates Bay Lookout was worthwhile. Next we continued onto Tasman Arch and the Devils Kitchen providing more photo opportunities.
The Port Arthur site was well worth the journey; the highlight being the Ghost Tour. Our designated Ghost Tour guide was both funny and informative; providing ghost tales and Port Arthur facts during our 90 minute Ghost Tour.
I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tasmania. I had a great time and so did the rest of the people on the tour. Thanks for a great day!!"
