Tickets can be purchased online and instantly. Boarding is done using a QR code. The comfortable single-decker Sky Bus has about 5 stops in the city. The driver will ask passengers where they are going and tell them which stop to get off at.
The itinerary is very comprehensive. I highly recommend the Unzoo Zoo. Devil's Kitchen is a short 30-minute walk, but it's very beautiful. Be sure to wear sunscreen if the weather in Port Arthur is great; I went in early March. Also, if you're interested in the prison's history, I suggest planning some activities with friends in Port Arthur, as a 2.5-hour stay is quite long. For example, we filmed the Ms. Potato Challenge there; the architecture and weather were both beautiful.
