Return Details

Returns to original departure point
Your Bruny Island day trip from Hobart starts with the approximate 45-minute coach drive from the city to the coast, where you’ll catch the ferry to Adventure Bay. During the drive, admire the scenery and listen to narration from your driver about points of interest.

When you reach Adventure Bay, enjoy fresh-baked muffins for morning tea before setting off on your 3-hour wilderness cruise around Bruny Island. With covered open-air seating, the custom-built adventure boat provides plenty of viewing opportunities of the wild coastline and, hopefully, sightings of local marine life. Your heart will race as you zoom between steep cliff faces, heading toward the Breathing Rock. See the treacherous location where the Southern Ocean meets the Tasman Sea, and keep your eyes open for dolphins, fur seals, sea eagles and maybe even a great white shark.

When your cruise returns to shore, warm up with a lunch of homemade soup and bread, and then end your day trip with the trip back to Hobart.

it should be excellent, however the weather was bad and when you can't change the booking inspite of the weather it is very sad. Wet, cold, unable to see as trying to protect yourself from the wet spray, rain and cold...I was surprised I wasn't allowed to move to the back being told that was for SICK people. We didn't stop much going south nor close to the rock as it was so bad. When we got to the seals the sun broke out which was a relief...Someone said he thought he would die. A girl was so sick with throwing up and wet and cold I felt sad and shared my photos as she was sick the whole trip. I asked to move into the sun on the way home to be told it would rain again , but that bit of sun on me made the world of difference ...very sad actually. We were wet before the jackets as we went up to the lookout at the neck..I would have thought as a duty of care the driver should have prevented that happening as if you are wet..the trip south in the boats would be very uncomfortable if you can't get warm...no one mentioned this , nor to prepare with many dry layers to stay warm ....I felt money was more important than safety

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide detailed feedback of your Bruny Island Cruise day tour. We are disappointed to hear that the experience did not meet your expectations. Operating in a remote coastal area the tour is subject to weather conditions. With bad weather we do give a weather warning and offer guests an opportunity to change dates or not to travel with a full refund. On this occasion a weather warning was given in Hobart before the bus departed and again at Bruny Island before the cruise. On our day tour we do stop at the iconic Neck Lookout. The guide on this day asked guests if they still wanted to stop at the Neck as it was raining and they did. However, guests were welcome to stay in the bus if they did not want to climb the stairs and avoid the rain. We do provide water and windproof jackets on our wilderness cruise but encourage all guests to dress warmly in layers, as it is a lot colder on the water. This information is included in our promotional information and on our booking confirmation. Please be assured that safety is our number one priority. Thank you again for taking the time to provide feedback. Best Regards Melinda Anderson

Wow! I honestly don't even know where to begin. This cruise was so much better than I could have ever imagined. Punctual departure and return, a hilarious yet extremely knowledgeable tour guide, Jamie, and a day on the water that showed me the real & untouched Tassie. The crew were super professional on board and did their best to answer any questions we had, take the time to stop for photos, all whilst ensuring we felt as safe as possible. Also a bonus - the included morning tea and fish and chips at the Pennicott restaurant were AMAZING! If you can only do one tour activity in Tasmania, it should definitely be this one!

You'll Love This Tour

This tour is one of the best tours I've been on. Our driver was very knowledgeable explaining interests of the places we were passing through on our way to Kettering where we boarded the ferry (on the bus) that took us over to Bruny Island. Lovely scenery on our way to Adventure Bay where we embarked on our Bruny Island cruise (jetboat) ride around the magnificent coastline with sheer cliffs and amazing scenery. The seals and dolphins came out to play. Morning tea and lunch were well-catered and delicious.
