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.

    We had a great time sitting in the water with Leo the Croc. Staff were very informative, letting us know how much the croc would like to eat us.

    The exhibit of the various boats and sailing vessels that people have used to travel and immigrate was the best part and easily missed if you didn’t stumble onto the entrance to that exhibit.

    Waterfront was well designed to attract visitors with the area smartly utilized, incorporating lot of spaces for different fun activities. This very methodically laid out area had almost all the amenities we needed as travellers. From the city the waterfront was accessible easily on an elevated pedestrian walkway which was well protected by a roof so that one would not get drenched during bad weather conditions. Access was well illuminated in the night with an elevator to get to the ground level. There were some beautiful sculptures of "Jipijonton" or "Jabiru" birds, paintings and real palms decorating this area which was connected to the dining and shopping precinct of the waterfront. Well surfaced pathways meandering through the area led us across the park area to the Wave Lagoon, Recreational Lagoon and the Darwin convention centre. The convention centre was an attractive building which was elegantly lit up with hues of blue in the night. Wave Lagoon was very popular with tourists and in a warm day the pool was a great comforter that was filled with fun. Adjoining the Lagoon were several breakwater piers creating some calmer water basins where we observed an Aquapark with sports activity being offered. In the same neighbourhood there were jet ski or water scooters, tour boats and the Stokes Hill wharf where we were able to enjoy the harbour views, watch sailing ships, boats and birds with dining facilities. The Jetty was also in the same surroundings. The entire area was very picturesque and methodically put to good use.

    Berry springs was a great spot to take a cool dip in the somewhat shallow pool fed by a creek that gently cascaded in to the pool in the form of a weir. It was very easy to get to the weir and relax letting the water to splash on the head and shoulders like a water massage. Spring carrying crystal clear water extended to a larger pool where it was easy to swim and enjoy a great freshwater bath. With the warm weather in Northern Territory, Berry springs was one of the safe cooling spots and during our tour to Litchfield National Park, the dip at the Berry Springs became the second bath of the day.

    Worth it in so many ways. Covers the whole history of the RFDS and the bombing of Darwin in WWII. Entry fee supports the ongoing Service. There are excellent displays of various kinds and an interesting gift shop. The virtual surround experience is amazing. Additionally the staff are very helpful.

    i've been to my share of markets, and these were pretty good. we got there right on sunset and it was absolutely stunning. the markets were predominantly food-driven, but there were enough stalls to be interesting. and quite a few of those stalls were offering items specific to the northern territory, so it felt genuine in that way. it was very well-serviced with cabs at one end to whisk you away when the time was right.

    We did the 1.3km each way walk from the car park into the lower Cascades: a lovely, generally shady walk with the last 150m a bit of a rock scramble.

    The reward is some delightful little cascading falls and rock holes that are just delightful to take a dip kin: croc free.

    One of our favourite spots visite during our four days at Litchfield national park.

    Bruce Munro's outdoor installation covers about a mile, and comprises about 8 illuminated sculptures. You guide yourself by following signs on the pavement -- kind of like a treasure hunt. We overnighted on a cruise, so returned to Darwin at night to see this spectacular exhibit. Fiber optics create magical opportunities to take your breath away. Other artists' works are part of the fun. Tropical Light runs through April, I think, so if you happen to be in Darwin or the area, don't miss this -- definitely a must see.
