5.00Really enjoyed the tour our guide explained things well and gave us enough time at each stop to do what we needed to do at our own pace.
It should be stated prior to paying, that the amount is in USD.

5.00The whole tour is very interesting especially if you don't know much about the bombing of Darwin . The cruise helps you get a better perspective of how the bombing happened. The guide was very informative and very helpful. Very enjoyable.

5.00A morning well spent. Clear communication on pickup time and location, and pickup was precisely as scheduled. The information provided covered the establishment of Darwin, events in Darwin prior to World War 2, the thinking behind the military presence, and the various air raids. The stops on the tour complemented the information, and added to the experience. The guides engaged, entertained, and educated the guests, which is the benchmark for any tour.
