I was pleasantly surprised :) - This morning adventure was really easy… just sit on a boat & listen to the best commentary. David did a fabulous job as did Capt Trev. We were spellbound by the amount of information & the secrets surrounding Darwin’s bombing. It was both moving & informative. We Would recommend this “ Sea Darwin” tour.

Excellent Darwin Tour - The harbor cruise was very nice and informative. It was a great precursor to the Bombing of Darwin Experience. The combination of the two was excellent to learn about Darwin’s involvement in WWII.

Worth doing, but almost not. - The Royal Flying Doctors Service Museum was small, but the virtual reality presentations and the holographic shows made up for the small space. The Bombing of Darwin Experience was a unique Virtual Reality format and well worth doing. The harbor cruise was less exciting, and though you got a view of a few historical sites from the water, most of those are within easy (and free) walking distance.
