A must see for anyone visiting Darwin. Our family loved the Museum and learnt more about the day War came to Australia. The indoor and outdoor exhibits were brilliant, informative and very well put together which made it easy for our 11 year old to take in.

We got there on the hop on hop off bus which is strangely the only way to get there unless you have a car or taxi. And you only do that in afternoons. But it is worth it. So we did the Darwin museum in the morning, had lunch at Saltwater then got the first trip to the Military museum. It was busy with young school children who were too young to keep quiet and understand the excellent film. Great exhibits inside and out. A must to visit.

Darwin's involvement in WW2 should be better known. This museum is well set out and it is easy to spend a couple of hours checking out its extensive displays, theatre, weapons and all things military. I rate the museum highly. It's a must-see for visitors to Darwin and school children should be given time off to have a look around, otherwise this very important part of our nation's history will gradually be forgotten.
