Gary is very knowledgeable about the bombing

What really happened.

Greg's knowledge of people's personal experience during and after the bombing was exceptional. It put a different light on the bombing rather than just facts and figures.
This tour should be mandatory for all school kids in Australia, history that is only brushed over in our education.
Great tour.
Japanese war jokes are getting old. They just don’t stop coming… like their bombs on Darwin.

Everything about this...

Everything about this tour was well organized, pick up/drop off on time, and very informative. But the best part of the tour was our driver & tour guide Garry, who not only has a wealth of knowledge on the area and its history, but had all the stories that you don’t find in the history books. He made this is an experience to remember, and I highly recommend this tour.
What about Darwin?

Fantastic tour - Garry was engaging and very knowledgeable

Fantastic tour - would go again and recommend to friends. Garry was an excellent guide, full of stories (about the bombing & other bits). He made every effort to engage with the group and made sure we were all involved in the conversation. He knew his stuff - loads of facts shared, always kept it interesting and made sure it was 'fun'. Learnt loads and had an amazing time.
Thanks Garry - you were awesome

Enlightening and entertaining

Gary was very entertaining with many stories to share; some true and some speculative. His knowledge of the bombing was quite extensive and he told us facts that we were not aware of. i.e. the sunken Japanese submarine in the harbor, the Brisbane Adelaide line. I won't say anymore as it would spoil his narrative. Gary wrote a book which is available for purchase and I can't wait to give it a read. I would not think that many people know the full story of the bombings but I think Gary's knowledge comes pretty close. He shares his theories around the submarine, the sinking of the Sydney and Harold Holt. Lots of laughs and he is what I would call a true blue aussie. I think a lot of school age children and adults alike could learn a lot from this man. Definitely worth taking this tour.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it 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. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
