This was a really fun small cruise. Sam was friendly & knowledgeable & stopped the boat at numerous spots of interest. The boat itself was compact & powerful but there was ample room to move about & take photos. A highlight for us was Sam letting our teenage sons "drive" the boat. The cruise was unhurried, relaxed and highlighted beauty of Hobart & it's coast. A+.

Fantastic tour with a variety of stops and sites to see. Tom our guide was very knowledgeable and had lots of great stories about the coastline and local history. Our teen was fully engaged the whole time.

Amazing cruise. Great way to understand the history by sea. Missing piece of the jigsaw puzzle. Iron Pot lighthouse was fascinating. Knowledge of guides was amazing. Great hosts. Fitting end to our trip.
Hints: Good camera, footwear and suitable clothes.
Highly recommend this trip

it was an awesome cruise to understand the history of hobart on a different perspective.
Hugh was an experience guide from the Pennicott wilderness tour. I would recommend to those who like to see Hobart through different angle.

Lovely sunny afternoon spent on the water. Saw sea lions and dolphins. Tom was a great guide, very knowledgeable about the area and it’s history. Highly recommend if you have 2 and half hours to spare. The light was perfect for photos.

We took the Iron Pot cruise last week, and had a great time. Our skipper Hamish was so engaging & knowledgeable, and was happy fielding questions from the guests. Being able to see the cliff faces up so close was amazing, as was the wildlife we were lucky enough to see (the sighting of 2 yellow beaked albatross was a rarity I believe). Would highly recommend this cruise.
