Review of: Darwin History and Wartime Experience Tour
These guys seriously under promote themselves. A particularly informative tour. I also took the option to stop off at the military museum and be collected later.

Review of: Darwin History and Wartime Experience Tour
Hubby and I timed it perfectly to join the 11.30am tour of the city sights in the back of the WW11 1941/42 Studebaker Army Truck.

Review of: Darwin History and Wartime Experience Tour
We went on the last trip for the day. There were four of us plus our driver. We started off going around the City and waving to people in cafes as we past. Our guide and driver was a very knowledgeable man, the information he gave us about certain buildings and also what to look out for eg bullet holes in fences left over from WW2 and disused run ways it was amazing. This is such a worthwhile trip to take, even if it just transports you back to the War years for a short while.…
