GUT2407 Posted August 8, 2016 #2 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Apart from the ship tour what is the best way to travel to Port Arthur from the wharf ? Do you mean from Hobart Or are you sailing to Port Arthur? If you're sailing to Port Arthur you will anchor in the bay and Tender to the actual historical site.

Rare TLCOhio Posted August 13, 2016 #5 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Apart from the ship tour what is the best way to travel to Port Arthur from the wharf ? GUT2407: Private tour Google will find a few. Appreciate your interest and good question. Agree with GUT2407 on doing a private tour. That allows more flexible to spend added time doing the Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary or in charming Hobart. Lots of good options there. For the Hobart' date=' Tasmania, tour with our group of seven couples, including visits to Port Arthur, Richmond and the wildlife center, we worked with [b']Judy Livingston of Eye See Personalize Tours[/b]. She gets well-deserved, high ratings from such services such as TripAdvisor. You can reach Judy at E-mail: eyesee@netspace.net.au Website: http://www.eyeseetasmania.com.au Tell her that Terry said HI!! Many more pictures, details and options can be seen by connecting below to my live/blog. THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio Enjoyed a 14-day, Jan. 20-Feb. 3, 2014, Sydney to Auckland adventure, getting a big sampling for the wonders of "down under” before and after this cruise. Go to: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1974139 for more info and many pictures of these amazing sights in this great part of the world. Now at 152,200 views for this posting. From Port Arthur, the historic Tasmanian penal colony seen during our stop in Hobart, here are a series of views for some of the sights there. First is an overview for a portion of this camp. Second, shows a view from some of the old building remains towards to the nearby water area and the location where the prisoners would arrive from England for this “visit”. It took six to nine months to make the journey from England to this distant part of the world. Third is an interior view as some members of our Central Ohio group tour and learn more about daily operations here.: Port Arthur was the location for the “worst of the worst” with these prison camps down under. Here are some more architecture examples from this site with many of its buildings made of native sandstone and classic designs. : Here is an up-close view of an emu at the Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary. They have a fairly oily look on the tops of their heads. Not all animals are cute and perfect in their appearance! Here's proof!!: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
