The morning kicks off with a visit to the Darwin Aviation Museum, which displays a huge part of the city’s past. Explore the displays of aircraft and historical artefacts as you learn about the city’s aviation history. See the B-52 Bomber and 18 other military and civil aircraft on display and watch the only known colour footage of the air raid in Darwin in 1942. Original footage from the Japanese archives adds a unique touch as you get to know more about this defining part of Darwin’s story.
Then it’s on to the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory (MAGNT) to learn more about the creative endeavours that have taken place in Darwin. Here, you can browse the works of famous artists in the selection of cultural and scientific collections. Peruse MAGNT’s collection of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artworks, the largest permanent display in Australia. Get up close and personal with Sweetheart, a taxidermied 5.1-metre crocodile, and explore the Cyclone Tracy exhibition to learn about the devastating impact the disaster had on the small city in 1974.
We’ll head to the Darwin Botanic Gardens, where you can stroll around the manicured lawns and marvel at the stunning selection of northern Australian and tropical plants and flowers on display. It’s one of the only botanic gardens in the world that boasts both natural marine and estuarine plants.
Finally, enjoy a panoramic tour around town, where your experienced guide will point out iconic landmarks like the Chinese Temple and East Point Military Precinct. Along the way, you’ll get an insight into the fascinating history and culture of the region.
