Port Arthur is a fantastic day trip. We highly recomend a visit, and it is really one of those 'must see' destinations in Tasmania. There are many things to do there, and you could spend anything from 2 to 5 hours easily.
A guided bus tour will show you everything you want to see, but hiring a car is an option you might want to explore. The 'Mega Day Tour' by Adventure Island Tours is fantastic at around $100, and is one of a several options for guided tours.
Hiring a car is also an excellent option for you to think about. A guided tour will cost around $100, and a hire car will cost around $30 plus insurance and fuel. The site entrance fee of less than $30 includes a walking guided tour and boat trip around the harbor. |
