From Hobart: Port Arthur Day Trip with Wild Animals

About this activity

Begin your day at Iron Creek Bay, feeding and interacting with friendly alpacas, peacocks, sheep, and ducks. Next, head to Blue Lagoon Oysters for an unforgettable tasting of Tasmania’s premium gold lip oysters harvested fresh straight from pristine waters, paired with local wine or cider. Spend your afternoon at the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Port Arthur Historic Site, where you will enjoy a harbour cruise around the Isle of the Dead and Point Puer, followed by a walk among the beautifully preserved sandstone ruins.

Please choose your package option: The Standard Tour includes a visit to the stunning Remarkable Cave. Alternatively, you can choose the Upgrade Option, which replaces Remarkable Cave with a spectacular 1.5-hour Cape Raoul Wilderness Cruise to marvel at towering vertical cliffs and deep sea caves (the cave is omitted to ensure catching the boat on time). Please note that the Cape Raoul Cruise upgrade requires a minimum of 3 days' advance booking to secure your seats.
