Very interesting anothet part of history us southerners didnt know
Interesting Australian history and includes a lot of informational posters. However the actual tunnels themselves isnt much to see and not worth the $7.50 (Jan 2018) entry charge. If there was some sort of guided spoken tour that concentrated on the tunnel history itself Id rate this experience higher. With the Internet and local library you can probably read most of the information elsewhere. I left also dissatisfied I truely understood what the purpose of the tunnels were for - other than for oil and why the government kept them secret from the public for so long (1992).
Worth a visit when in Darwin. Lots of volunteers to help run the tunnels. Knowledgeable guides around who love to answer all your questions.
Another place that advertises 'discounts' yet doesnt honor them when you buy tickets. Fairly basic exhibitions that is interesting history... Pricey
The route is pretty straight forward which you should be able to follow and see all the information posters that explained the time line and events taken place.Make sure you have cash and or coins preferably as is $7.50 I think and is cash only. Otherwise, there's an commonwealth atm nearby.
