Guests will enjoy a scenic bus tour from Hobart including a ferry crossing to Bruny Island on the South East Coast of Tasmania. This multi-award-winning nature cruise to Bruny Island takes you to explore the fascinating wildlife and stunning geological features that surround Bruny Island.

Climb aboard a custom-made yellow boat designed to maximise viewing of nature and surrounds. These vessels are fast, safe and comfortable taking you right into the heart of the action and will get you as close to the local Tasmanian wildlife as you can get! The Bruny Island Eco Adventure Cruise will take you to see the famous "Breathing Rock", the towering cliffs and rocky stacks, exploring sea caves, remote islands and isolated beaches around this beautiful National Marine Park.

Your guide will take you on an epic seafaring journey to meet the local wildlife such as the fur seal colony at The Friars and during the eco cruise, you may encounter a pod of friendly dolphins or see Humpback Whales at play on their migration route during September to December. Your Bruny Island eco cruise includes morning tea and lunch, your ferry crossing and bus trip from Hobart.

The three hour Bruny Island adventure cruise is hosted by world-class guides that are deeply passionate about this unspoilt environment and are thrilled to be able to share with you the spectacular coastal wilderness of South East Tasmania. This multi award-winning eco tourism adventure cruise is not to be missed - it is the ultimate Tasmanian wilderness experience.

Guests are to meet at 7:30 am at the Hobart Waterfront Book Centre at Franklin Wharf for a 7:45 am departure and will return around 5:30 pm in the afternoon. The tour also includes morning tea and lunch as well as hotel drop offs.

This was by far one of the best tours I have ever been on in my life

This was by far one of the best tours I have ever been on in my life. Our guides Sam and Huge were so much fun and make the experience that much better. We managed to see some dolphins while we would out on the water and even though it had started raining by the end of our tour, it didn't matter much because it was just an incredible experience. Lunch was also delicious. Would highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Hobart!

My husband and I did this tour and had a fabulous day

My husband and I did this tour and had a fabulous day. The bus ride was comfortable and our driver, Mick, was a local who grew up in the area so was full of information. The company seemed very well organised, spot on with their timing, and even when there was an unexpected hiccup with one of their four boats not able to run that day they coped very well and managed to get all but 4 people who turned up on to a tour either that morning or at a reduced rate in the afternoon. The wind and water protecting coats work well, the scenery was breathtaking and we managed to see seals, dolphins and albatross too. On top of that, our lunch, which is obviously produced for a crowd of people converging all at once, was probably the nicest meal I've ever had on a tour like this! Beautiful pumpkin soup and a very fresh roll and a blueberry muffin for morning tea. Well done to them!! And to top it all off, a drive-through oyster bar where we were able to purchase the most beautiful oysters on the way home. Thanks for a great day.

The trip was excellent

The trip was excellent. Food was good. Staffs are polite, professional and respect the opinions of visitors. We made some wrong bookings before we went on the trip but the issues were all solved quickly. They even provided translation service for us to make sure everything was correct before we went.

The Bruny Island Full Day tour was a great way to experience Bruny Island

The Bruny Island Full Day tour was a great way to experience Bruny Island. Our tour guide, Belinda, was a fountain of knowledge and had a great sense of humour, which made the tour really interesting. We were extremely fortunate that the weather was sunny and warm on the day we did the tour. Really enjoyed the cruise, watching the seals and being so close to Antartica! I was really hoping to see some dolphins and whales, alas they didn't make an appearance on the day. Nevertheless, it was great seeing the island from the water. Other highlights of the tour include the delicious morning tea and lunch provided and also the drive-thru at getting Shucked Oyster Farm. Hands down the best tasting oysters I've ever had!

This tour made my weekend in Hobart

This tour made my weekend in Hobart. If you're only going to do one thing in Tasmania this should be it. The tour begins right in Hobart, the transportation to Bruny Island is part of the tour, not just a quiet drive. Our tour guide was funny, relaxed, and happy to answer any questions. The vessel rides extremely smoothly and they take you to see many unique features of Bruny Island that you can only see from a boat. On the way back you can ask the driver to stop so that you can get some Bruny Island chocolate or some oysters.

This tour was thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish

This tour was thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish. The driver/guide Hugh was fun and kept our attention all day. The morning tea was great as was the pre-ordered lunch. The cruise along the coast was truly spectacular and exhilarating. I would recommend this tour to people of any age and fitness!

Keep a close lookout for sea eagles soaring above the cliffs, pods of dolphins surfing the bow wave, albatross wheeling on the wind and shearwaters skimming the swells.
