Had a great time toying around Darwin on the Hop On Hop Off bus. Very interesting and informative. Hopped off at the Darwin Museum which covered WW11 bombing of Darwin through to Cyclone Tracy and beyond. Also we to the RFDS which was also interesting. Back on the bus and back to the city centre.

Relaxing Bus Ride

The drivers were friendly and very knowledgeable. Even funny at times when he tricked me into thinking my ticket had expired. The trip takes you around a large variety or locations and this gave us time to jump off and on at the different locations. Spent from 9am - 4.30pm (last bus) going around all the sites and seeing different aspects each time.

Booked this bus on the day of arrival as a method to become orientated and see the local attractions. Due to the limited timetable (a bus every hour) it takes an extremely long time to undertake this tour - it might be wise to purchase the 2 day offer or just catch the local bus.

I had a 2 day pass what an amazing adventure it provided for me to see Darwin. The drivers especially Trisitan were amazing. He went above and beyond he provided great information about what Darwin has to offer. No need to worry about missing anything the bus has it covered.
