Departing from Hobart at approximately 7.45 am after being picked up from your CBD accommodation...its then on to our first main stop, historic Richmond Village... A convict heritage site, Richmond is full of well-preserved colonial sandstone buildings, including St John's Catholic Church, thought to be the oldest in Australia. While in Richmond you can visit the Richmond Bridge, the oldest bridge still in use in Australia today. You will have 30 mins visiting time to explore some of the area's most beautiful Georgian architecture.

After leaving Richmond, you will venture south via the Dunalley Sea Canal to the Tasman Peninsula, where – amidst breathtaking scenery and rugged wilderness – you will discover significant historical sites drenched in convict history. Soaring dramatic cliffs and rocky outcrops reach to the lashing ocean, forming an extraordinary backdrop to Pirates Bay Lookout, Eaglehawk Neck and the natural landforms of the Tasman Arch,Blowhole and Devils Kitchen, you will have plenty of time to explore this area including a great short walk and find out about the famous Dog-line!!!Our last stop before Port Arthur will be a short visit to the Lavender Farm or an OPTIONAL visit the TASMANIAN DEVIL PARK
