Very informative guides on the bus and on the boat. The tour around Darwin, Parap etc on the bus seeing old houses and places of interest with stories to go along with it was great. The boat ride was both cooling and exciting. Learnt so many interesting things, heard stories that were both sad and happy. Just wish we had more time at the WWII museum

Really 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.

Ensure you take your hat on the harbour cruise. The tour of the military museum was very emotive so be prepared for that.

The 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.
