A must do to get your bearings. - We arrived in Darwin on Friday and bought a 2 day pass. But bus does not operate on Sundays so had to transfer 1 ticket to the Monday. Things changed so we transferred the pass to the Tuesday. Drivers were very helpful at all times. Great way to see Darwin but it only goes one way around so you have to plan to fit in with opening times. Strangely bus only goes to Military Museum in an afternoon and except for taxis, it’s the only way to get there. Some stops are quite a distance from tourist spots - so Botanical Gardens, Myilly, and Fannie Gaol require a 10 minute walk (for us that was in hot weather).

A great way to see the city highlights - If you want to get to all the main tourist destinations around Darwin city this is a great way to do it, but if you are planning a few stops I would recommend the 48hr ticket so you have enough time.

A good overview of Darwin but expensive. - Good itinerary but quite expensive. Commentary: Seemed there was a lot of missing information, and it was irritating with the bad jokes. The driver was helpful when asked but not overly engaging or friendly.
