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.

    once in a lifetime experience
    can’t believe there are salties right in the heart of Darwin City! It was scary at first but it was a bit relaxing once you’re in the cage 😅

    A surprisingly overlooked part of Darwin
    I first visited the park in 2014, when I first arrived in Darwin, searching for new experiences. I walked along one of the trails--the Woodland Walk--and, although not disappointed with a scattering of animals, birds, and thick bush, was not especially impressed either. Then, many years later, after I had forgotten this experience, I decided to walk, with my partner, around another trail--the Jungle walk--assuming I would experience the same feeling of mild satisfaction. But, actually, the Jungle walk, embedded in Monsoon rainforest, was surprisingly lush and peaceful. The trail snaked its way through some stunning trees, shrubs, and land. We were surprised at how such obvious beauty, only a 15 to 20 minute drive from the CBD, was overlooked by most locals, including us

    Fish feeding
    Was an interesting experience. Lots of fish to feed with an ongoing commentary. Plenty of food was supplied to feed the fish. Would recommend doing this.
