Very well thought out trip. Great information and the tour operators are absolutely brilliant. If I would change one thing.... more time at the museum. Way to much to see in 45 min.

Well what surprise this tour was. If you only have time to do one tour in Darwin, make it this one. We enjoyed this tour so much. Our tour guide Paul was so informative. We had no idea the extend of what happened during the Darwin Bombing. It was also backed up by the water tour which showed a different perspective of the bombing. The tour guides on the boat were very informative also. The whole tour went together seamlessly. We can highly recommend this tour.

Fantastic experience-our guide was very informative and we visited a whole range of WW11 sites including a boat trip. The bombing of Darwin harbour and the surrounds by the Japanese over a 21 month period needs to be more acknowledged in Australia’s/ANZAC war history.

This was a really intriguing and fact filled, insightful WWII tour around Darwin. I would have given it five out of five if it was an all day tour, but that may be a bit of a stretch for some people's attention span and the guides' voices in high humidity. That said, Paul did provide an excellent overview of life in Darwin pre war, and he is able to answer all sorts of questions as only a well informed local can. The enclosed bus is nice and cool BTW, which is a relief between walks around historic sites. Then there's the harbour boat cruise where another couple of guys (Rob and Allan on our trip) provide a detailed insight of what it would have been like on the ground as the bombs exploded during the invasion. (No spoilers here). I left feeling that I had learned so much in a short half day tour, and also wanting to learn more. Thanks guys!

Paul gave us a historical insight into Darwin before the raid, and that sets the scene for the bomb by bomb story later on the harbour cruise where Alan and Rob provide many factual anecdotes of what it would have been like for soldiers and civilians. Both the bus and boat rides were very comfortable, professional and fun. Would have liked more time at the c Military Museum but it's only a half day tour.
