- TWal1Canberra, Australia2,698 contributionsWe visited the Botanic Gardens at the end of our half day tour of the city. This was a better option than being dropped back at our hotel. We enjoyed a light lunch in the cafe before exploring the gardens. The visitors centre is worth visiting to learn more about the gardens including the cyclones and personalities who shaped its development. Overall, the gardens are well maintained and it’s easy walking, but can be hot. Worth visiting.Written November 4, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Phillip FieldLake Macquarie, Australia213 contributionsAustralians were deceived by Government about the extent of war time activity in Darwin. The bombing was ferocious. The video experience here and the small museum are well worth the visit. We took an Uber out here rather than waste a day waiting for a bus. It was very cheapWritten May 22, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- SandySydneyAusAustralia656 contributionsIf you are in Darwin on market day you have to go. Variety of foods. Especially Asian foods. Special fruit juices. Nice to walk around the crowd. We tried all Thai salads and curries. Fruit juices. Sit on the grass anywhere. Bring a rug if you can. Go early and walk back along the beach at sunset time.Written August 8, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- rachel cDarwin, Australia46 contributionsWhat a great way to spend the day! We took two kids (8 and 11) and they and the adults had a fantastic time. Great water slides and other places to swim/relax.

The croc feeding was informative and the jumping crocodile cruise well worth the extra cost.Written August 27, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
