The Pentridge tour itself is well worth the effort to understand how it came about as an establishment and the associated stories of real life prisoners back in the day. The tour guide is excellent. Lots of context is provided for paying customers. It’s an educational experience that I certainly would recommend to anyone, particularly H Division.
