It is a tour for those who don't want to drive down to Port Arthur themselves, or stand in queue to buy entry tickets. It's also great that the driver of the bus tells you a little bit about Hobart and the town's on the way as he drives. Once you're in Port Arthur and he gets you the tickets and explains the next steps, you're on your own, but it is an easy self-guided your with explanations, maps and aids everywhere. The 20-minute cruise to the nearby islands, included in the ticket, was a unique experience too. The driver drops you around 9.30 am, and then picks you up again at 4.30 pm. It was exactly what we wanted.
