4.01. The story at Parnell Place of the shelling by the Japanese during WW2, taught me more of the impact of Japanese attacks on Australia, beyond the submarine in Sydney Harbour and the bombing of Darwin. This was an eye opener. 2. A great presentation by our Guide Julia - well researched, detailed and entertaining. Thanks.
Refund Received - thank you.

4.0We didn't have the opportunity to partake due to illness with our allocated guide ( we hope that the guide is feeling better). Due to not living in the area, another date didn't suit, but we did receive a full and prompt refund through the 3rd party booking agency used by the tour operator.
Excellent must do
