What to expect
You'll be picked up near the cruise terminal and driven to whichever town appeals to you most. Devonport offers a relaxed waterfront vibe; Sheffield is known for its murals and creative locals; Latrobe and Penguin are quieter, rural settlements worth a wander. Your guide will point out local history and character, and if the schedule allows, you might detour to a vineyard. There's time to browse shops, grab a coffee, or simply soak up the pace. You're back well before your ship departs.
