This cruise explores the renowned waterways that influence Hobart's lifestyle. Visit Australia's oldest lighthouse, circumnavigate Betsey Island and discover the city's rich maritime past. Travel aboard a brand new vessel in a small group of up to 12 passengers. The spacious enclosed cabin contains comfortable leather seats, and large awning windows provide a great view and allow you to immerse yourself in the surroundings.
Cruising down the Derwent River you'll pass historic Battery Point, now one of Tasmania's premium residential addresses.

That's 10% of the Australian population! When we started 'doing' experiences in 2001, Facebook didn't exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We've been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
We want you to have the most enriching experience possible, so if this means swapping your jet boat experience for wine tasting then we've got you covered. Simply exchange online or contact our Customer Experience Team and we'll do the work for you.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in.

We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That's why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author's experience with a product or service.

Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
