Discover Tasmania’s dramatic coastlines and colonial history
Set off from Hobart in the morning for a day immersed in natural beauty and remarkable pasts. With an expert local guide, journey south to Tasmania's renowned Tasman Peninsula, famed for its breathtaking scenery and unique landforms. Make stops at scenic Pirates Bay Lookout, with its sweeping coastal views, followed by the geological marvels of Tasman Arch and the striking chasm known as Devil's Kitchen. Along the way, learn how wind, water and time shaped these formations, and take in the fresh sea air as you stroll the rugged cliffs.
Step into Australia’s convict legacy at Port Arthur
Arrive at the UNESCO-listed Port Arthur Historic Site, one of Australia’s best-preserved and evocative penal settlements. Join your guide for an insightful walk through the remains of the prison, workshops and colonial gardens. Hear stories of resilience and hardship, and witness artefacts that paint a vivid picture of 19th-century convict life. Your experience includes a harbor cruise to the Isle of the Dead, the atmospheric burial site for prisoners, officers and their families — listen as your guide shares somber tales from its storied past.
Explore Richmond’s heritage and enjoy local treats
In the afternoon, continue to historic Richmond village. Admire its charming colonial buildings and walk across the much-photographed Richmond Bridge, the oldest in Australia. Enjoy free time to sample treats from popular bakeries, visit the old-fashioned Lolly Shop or Chocolatier, or browse local shops for a unique souvenir. Your guide will reveal the legends of Richmond's haunted history and how its convict-built structures survived the centuries.
