Explore the city with a local guide on this two-hour walking tour. A Darwinian's perspective offers you a true sense of how the city of Darwin has developed to successfully blend the past with today's modern multicultural vibe. Your guide willingly shares his/her passion for the town (s)he calls home, and will tell you the history of the World War II bombings and the devastating Cyclone Tracy.
Discover many of the remaining buildings such as the old Court House and Police station, Browns Mart and the Old Palmerston Town Hall ruins, all of which have been painstakingly reconstructed.
You'll view Government House, Parliament House and the Northern Territory Supreme Court on your journey through the streets of this modern tropical city.
There are many hidden treasures to see on foot, including the Beagle Bells, and plenty of opportunities to capture photographs of indigenous sculptures, modern architecture, historical buildings, wildflowers and wildlife.
