You will get there on a lightning-fast ocean crossing aboard the local partner's high-speed ferries. It is recommended to arrive at Hillary's Boat Harbor at 9:00 AM for the 10:00 AM ferry departure.  Then, discover everything this beautiful island has to offer on a 3.5-hour all-inclusive fully guided bus tour.

Pickup and drop off were easy, the ferry was fast and east, loved the island and everything we got to see. The quokkas are adorable, and we even got to see a whale breaching and splashing around. It would be nice for the bus tour though to choose less cays to drive by to allow more stops or time off the bus. The gun and tunnels tour was interesting but took forever and as someone who is intensely claustrophobic, I would have liked a different option. Our driver was fantastic though and had a lovely sense of humor. All in all a great day, just spent a little too much time on a warm bus.

It was a great idea to go on the tour as we would not have seen as much of the island on our own on a bike. The information provided by the guide was excellent and the lunch was lovely. Everything went smoothly all the connections from time if pick up to time if drop off. It would have been lovely if a pamphlet with all the information was available at the end of the tour. The guide knew all the places to show us of interest. Loved the tour would recommend it and do it again. I would have loved to have had more time to explore the lighthouse. Thanks again for the tour.
