Easy way to see Darwin from up on high. Much more cost effective than paying for taxis if you have a few different things you want to see or do on the same day. Nice, relaxed vibe.

Hop-on Hop-off buses are the BEST way to see a new place. I always do a day on the HO-HO on my first day. I love seeing a city from a top deck and hearing about its its history and famous places. Darwin was no exception. It's a big place and it was very pleasant to do the tour and make a couple of stops to see great things. I loved the RFDS and WW2 bombing display at the wharf and Crocosaurus was good too.
