The bus driver & his stories he had a lot of information. Sadly the boat trip didn’t happen as the lady would not let us on as we were 1 minute late

The driver of the bus, Colin, was excellent. Very informative and amusing. We had a full day of exploring the area including Port Arthur. Excellent value for money.

This was a delightful tour on a beautiful day. We would recommend it as it covered the various areas we were interest (including the Isle of the Dead) in a very comprehensive way. The driver Colin was excellent. His humour and great source of information and made the day.
