What to expect
You'll download audio files and a mapped route before setting off. Plug in your headphones and follow the GPS as you walk Darwin's streets, hearing about the city's wartime occupation, the 1974 cyclone that flattened much of it, and how locals rebuilt. The commentary connects you to heritage sites, waterfront landmarks, and neighbourhood character. You control the tempo—stop for lunch, browse a shop, or sit and absorb a view without the audio rushing you along.
