When I planned to do this adventure cruise with my wife I was in dilemma about which touring company to choose but a simple call to Kevin from this company sorted it all for us. I chose the full day tour from Hobart including Tasman island adventure cruise and Port Arthur historic site.
You are picked up in a small tour bus from Hobart and taken to their booking office in Eaglehawk Neck, Arthur Hwy. Here you have to make your payment for the cruise, they have a deal running at the moment where buying of 1 full trip ticket will get you the second ticket at 50%.
You can have your breakfast here (I suggest otherwise if you have the tendency to throw up on boats). You are provided with wet suits which is a life saviour if the sea get rough and some ginger root tablets to help your stomach adjust to the waves.
You are joined with the rest of the group who decided to drive their own from Hobart and taken on a bigger bus to the jetty. Here you meet skipper Craig who is just great behind the wheel. You make your way to as the website suggests "NEWEST and ULTIMATE 4WD of the SEA". This baby can surprise you at times with the power of its Yamaha engines.
The 3hr cruise is the best experience if you are not a frequent one on the sea. I had an amazing time of my life on that cruise and we even spotted a humpback whale. If not anything you will surely see some seals who are seen often on the coastline. The amazing features made from dolerite and sea stacks such as candlestick, the totem pole and cathedral rock is a treat to the eyes and added to that the journey into carved caves will stay in memories fora long time.
After the cruise you are back to the blue seal cafe where your pre-booked lunch is served. Kevin had taken special care to get our meal specially prepared by his chef as we are vegetarians and had indicated this to him during the time of booking.
After that we'll deserved lunch you are dropped off at the Port Arthur historic site where you can look around and enjoy the scenic beauty and history associated with this site. There is an entry fee to this site which your covered in your booking. You are the collected from there for a trip back to your accommodation.
All in all this is a great package, Kevin, Roshan and the rest of the staff are just a great bunch of guys and this trip will be in the list of my most memorable adventure trips ever.... read more
