Port Arthur Historic Site and Nature
For KrisFlyer members only
Highlights
Port Arthur & Tasman Peninsula: A Descendant’s Perspective
Join a full-day tour led by a guide with 17 convict ancestors. This isn't a shuttle service; it’s a deep dive into the human stories of Van Diemen’s Land.
The Journey:
Richmond (30m): Explore an early convict settlement where forced labor built the iconic stone bridge and village.
The Natural Prison: Visit Pirates Bay and the Tessellated Pavement. See how Tasmania’s rugged coast acted as a physical and psychological wall.
Port Arthur (4h): Entry included. Go beyond the ruins to hear personal stories of daily routines, punishment, and survival.
Coastal Wonders (30m): Witness Tasman Arch, Devil’s Kitchen, and the Blowhole—nature’s boundaries that made escape impossible.
Lavender Farm: An optional, peaceful contrast to the peninsula's harsh history.
Ideal for travelers seeking a meaningful, narrative driven connection to the landscape.
