Did one lap first then went back to places we wanted to see. Great staff and very friendly. The tape was excellent and we learnt a lot

Be flexible in the order you would like to do things. Sometimes a venue may have tech issues - such was my experience with the RFDS experience. They were unable to allow visitors in the morning and so I returned later in the afternoon. Also be mindful of 'last entry' times for venues. A great experience with a really insightful commentary to broaden knowledge of Darwin. Be open to doing multiple laps. Hearing the commentary more than once reinforces it. Definitely recommend the experience!!

Good introduction to Darwin and overview of the city. I bought a 48-hour pass, but got approval from staff on site to use the second day on Tuesday as the bus does not operate on Sundays and I had another tour booked for Monday. Overall pleasant experience and practical way of getting around the town.

You certainly don't need to stop at every stop. We did a quick trip around on the bus first and picked what we would like to look at which was great as the stops that were important to us took a while to get around. The Hop on Hop off bus was a quick and easy way to see from one side of Darwin to the other.

Good way to visit Darwin attractions by hopping on/off and seeing other parts of Darwin from the bus. Top deck recommended.

Great way to get the lay of the city and some history. Driver very helpful to know where to get off/ on to do things we wanted

The commentary was superb so informative. Without this trip we would have been ignorant of Darwins history. Well worth the money

Driver went above and beyond to pick us up when we flagged down the bus. Very friendly and helpful. The only thing is the app for the big bus found our nearest capital city was Sydney! Why?
