Garry was our host for this tour. He was extremely knowledgeable about the activities surrounding that historic event. In fact, he also wrote a book by the same name. We visited the affected areas as he told the story. He had photographs and other media to illustrate the story. We visited the military museum which was ok, not our favorite part. I appreciated that we also got to drive around Darwin and he pointed out the buildings, interesting facts and stories. Our only trip to Darwin so it was nice to see the town.

Garry had so many wonderful (and sometimes sad) stories to share with us. It really brought that time to life and showed how determined the people were to survive. We loved that he also drove around and showed us buildings and explained how the city has changed since the war and Cyclone Tracy. The Air Museum was fascinating and easier to understand because of Garry’s stories. He stopped at Mylily Terraces which was also of interest to me. We were with an Australian couple so all of the banter made for an excellent learning experience and Garry is quite the storyteller.

Garry was a great tour guide. Garry was extremely knowledgeable about the Bombing, the people and countries involved and Darwin in general. The Aviation Museum and the visible reminders of the bombing were very interesting. The tour was well worth it.
