Hop on and off buses are a great way to get to know a city.
We bought the 2 day pass, with tickets to 2 attractions, on line.
Do not bother downloading the app, it was useless. The only Australian city it knows was Sydney.
The drivers and operators were delightful. They were happy to oblige.
The person I travelled with used a walker and they were great at helping.
The bus has a ramp for entry and egress, but once it seemed very steep and I worried about her safety.
We spent time doing a few loops.
The buses were slightly busy but not full.
The buses themselves seem a bit rickety. I was impressed to see the driver whip out a tarp to cover the front when it rained.
Another bus needed a stop for an air-conditioning repair.
Fun to do. I would recommend them.

Excellent, pricey, convenient. Driver extraordinarily helpful with extra information while we waited. Buses run to schedule.
Note when a big cruise ship is in town, everything is overrun notably the buses. Check with Big Bus in advance

Drivers and bus are great, but the company needs to make the route more interesting. Maybe a few photo stops and call in at Nightcliff or Tipperary waterfront. Wifi on board would be great

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. These guys are great. Took all the time in world to explain their operation and where they stop and pickup. Recorded commentary on tbe bus was informative and entertaining. Prices were very reasonable also. To me it was the best way to get around Darwin and see the places of interest.
