Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Highly recommend 🤗💕. John is a local who is passionate in sharing the little Hidden Gems of Darwin most I had just walked by. I did two tours with John & his passion never wavered. He took the time to find out my interests (& all group members) & incorporated as much as he could in the short time. What wasn’t covered John gave easy to follow instructions for us to go back & find in our own time, which I did & really appreciated his advice. I loved both tours and would do more if I had time. I highly recommend Walk Darwin Tours. Thank you so much John; very much appreciated.

John was great, he was very knowledgeable and his funny tangents took us not just across history but also the local community, the economy, characters of the area and culture. We saw lots of things we’d otherwise have walked past and a great mix of scenery.

As a total newbie to Darwin with only limited knowledge about specific historical events, this was a great introduction to the city and it's history. Our guide John obviously has great affection for Darwin, and was friendly and knowledgeable, and presented the city's history in an interesting way.

Heritage city tour. John is very easy-going and spritely. We'd walked through town the day before and today he uncovered so much context and interesting history that we'd completely missed, worth every minute!

John’s walking tour was a highlight of our visit to Darwin so far. We learned so much and got good pointers on what else to do. John was a great guide - a really decent fellow, but also affable and interesting.
