- Robert D4,655 contributionsExcellent museumThe Darwin Aviation Museum is adjacent to Darwin Airport, but on the other side. A local bus stops in front of the museum. Its prize exhibit is the only Boeing B-52 Stratofortress on display in the Southern Hemisphere. It was built in 1959 and gifted by the U.S. government to the people of Darwin in 1990. They had to build a special hangar to accommodate this huge aircraft. I spent two hours at this museum enjoying their many exhibits.Visited October 2023Travelled soloWritten 1 November 2023
- C_and_J_LewisSydney, Australia503 contributionsWow! Huge array of incredible aircraft headlined by the ENORMOUS B52!!An incredible array of aircraft. I love visiting aviation museums and this is one of the best. If you like Australian aviation you will be amazed! If you just like planes you will love it. There is not much interactive, it is a walk around and read type museum, but the amount and quality of aircraft is awesome. From memory they have the unbelievably huge B52, the F18, F111, P3 Orion, Mirage, Spitfire, Sabre, a Cobra helicopter, Wessex helicopter, and this would be less than a tenth of the lineup. The information is great, and they provide the opportunity to see into some of the more fascinating areas - eg. the gunner area of a Lancaster Bomber (I'm too big and won't fit!!) Definitely worth a visit (AUD$20) adult and $15 for seniors and service people (July 2024). As a bonus the outside of the museum is at the end of the runway for the airport where amazing military and civilian aircraft take off. PS. you cannot capture the size of the B52 as it is just way too huge, but most aircraft in the museum are under it's enormous wings.Visited July 2024Travelled with familyWritten 13 July 2024
- Cosmopolitan800580United Kingdom177 contributionsSee biggest US bomber ever built plus lots of other planesInteresting collection of mostly military planes, including a giant US Bomber that dominate the hanger. The planes vie with the bombing of Darwin in WW2 and the subsequent Ariel warfare in and around Darwin for the visitor's attention. There are some good short videos and lots of show cases and a sort of chronological tour that takes the visitor around the bomber. No obvious explanations about the planes parked outside the hanger and it was too hot to go and explore them. Staff were friendly and there is a good bookshop including some second hand books for sale plus the usual hats and other museum merchandise. Also, ice-creams that are welcome when the temperature is in the 90s. To get to the museum take the number 8 bus, an experience in itself and currently free. The bus stops outside the museum entrance. You can buy a combined ticket for the RFDS and aviation museum that is cheaper than 2 separate tickets. worth the visit if you have kids or are interested in Darwin's history in relation to the air and the defence of northern Australia.Visited August 2024Travelled with friendsWritten 21 August 2024
- WaltercGreenwood, Australia16 contributionsWell worth doingWell worth a visit. we did it on the way to departing Darwin. From the waterfront to the museum we took an Uber that was around $25.00 and then to the airport from there also a similar price. Lots of info and displays that are easy to see closeup. An hour there should be fine unless you are into aviation.Visited July 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 26 August 2024
- David n Sally B4 contributionsReminiscing.Outstanding as always. Sad to see 757 still suffering outside, but understandable. Big thanks to Owen for indulging me a trip down memory lane in her nonetheless. Have been here many times, but still find something new to look at every time.Visited September 2024Travelled with familyWritten 25 September 2024

- Defence of Darwin Experience HotelsThe Defence of Darwin Experience is managed by Darwin Military Museum on behalf of the Northern Territory Government. It was established to tell a story of Darwin's role in World War II and is dedicated to the period 1932 to 1945 - a very important time in Territory history. The Defence of Darwin Experience opened on 18 February 2012, which was in time to commemorate the 70th Anniversary of the Bombing of Darwin.

The Darwin Military Museum is continuing to expand by adding more exhibitions to further educate visitors of Northern Australia involvement in WWII.

- Burnett House HotelsThis is the only surviving example of B.C.G. Burnett’s Type ‘K’ and was unusual in being of two-storey configuration. A unique feature is the coloured compass inlay in the ground floor concrete slab. Burnett’s original plans and early photographs indicate a rainwater tank at the rear, near the laundry. The house was damaged by Cyclone Tracy in December 1974. From about 1983 the house remained vacant and was boarded up to prevent access from itinerants until it was restored in 1988 for the National Trust. It was officially opened as the headquarters of the Trust by the Administrator, Commodore Eric Johnston, on 18 April 1989. It then became known as Burnett House, after its designer. Burnett House offers guided tours of the house and surrounding gardens. Afternoon Tea is available on the third Sunday of every month from 2pm to 5pm (except for December and January) bookings recommended.The only experience of its kind in Darwin, the precinct is an educational and photographic experience not to be missed.Read more
