Ticket Options

Tour: Includes wilderness cruise

Tour + Devils Park: Includes wilderness cruise, morning tea and Lunch

Enjoy a tasty lunch after the cruise before visiting Tasmanian Devil Unzoo known as a global leader in shaping the way zoos evolve in the 21st century. Here you will discover lots of very special animals of the Tasmanian bush, especially our famous devils. But what is different now is that most of our creatures are wild, not captive. It is a welcome change from a traditional zoo. An Unzoo would be a reversal of the traditional concept of a zoo.

Instead of animals in enclosures for the benefit of humans, an Unzoo would invite visitors into natural habitats in which cages or barriers are removed or concealed and wild, as well as resident animals, are encouraged to interact with the environment. Animals have more dignity, freedom and self-determination, and human visitors experience personal, memorable encounters with wildlife and nature.

Tour + Port Arthur Historic Site: Includes wilderness cruise, morning tea at a local cafe and lunch at the Port Arthur Historic Site.

After the cruise, visit The UNESCO World Heritage-listed Port Arthur Historic Site, which is Australia’s most intact and evocative convict site. There is inexhaustible things to and do and see with more than 30 historic buildings and ruins to explore over 100 acres. Your next three hours here will be visually feastful along with a delightful lunch.
