The Crown Princess arrives in Hobart on the 28th of October to mark the beginning of the 2024-2025 Cruise Season.
This summer will see around 90 ship arrivals in Hobart and 18 visiting Port Arthur. We want to make sure these guests see the very best that southern Tasmania has to offer and have a fantastic visitor experience.
