Sign In or Sign Up to

Join a lantern-lit walking tour to experience the Port Arthur Historic Site by night. Port Arthur can seem a very different place after sunset, full of mystery and intrigue.

Are there ghosts? Truth or myth? Either way, the silence and soft glow of the lantern light can sometimes make those long gone seem very close at hand.

RICH STORYTELLING Rich storytelling and pathways through darkened ruins and heritage buildings reveal bizarre occurrences during Port Arthur's history, baffling and alarming convicts, free settlers, soldiers and today's visitors alike.

Listen to first hand accounts of prisoners and soldiers that will resonate in your mind long after the lantern dims at the end of the night.

REAL PEOPLE - REAL STORIES Black-cloaked tour guides vividly recount real people's documented stories of sightings and unexplained occurrences of the past.

180 YEARS OF REPORTED SIGHTINGS With its sometimes violent, sometimes cruel European history dating back to 1830, Port Arthur is a unique place where spine tingling tales make a memorable impression.

REPUTED TO BE AUSTRALIA'S MOST HAUNTED PLACE Almost two centuries of documented sightings and reports of paranormal activity make Port Arthur's after dark atmosphere intense. Truth or myth? Either way, the silence and soft glow of the lantern can make those long-gone seem very close at hand.

THE ORIGINAL AND THE BEST After sharing the hidden side of the convict settlement for more than 20 years, Port Arthur remains Australia's "must do" ghost tour experience.

Testimonial
In the bathroom I experienced a presence. I felt it was a little girl and I felt her hand on the side of my face. As she caressed my face she said she was happy that I was here.I have never had such a warm and loving feeling.*Olive, New South Wales, 11 April 2003
