same here. I'm glad to find someone on the same tour. Smiler
I'm from Montreal, Canada
First time in Australia for me, so I'm really looking forward to the experience!
I'll be doing the Beaches & Reefs right before, so it'll be a great trip from beginning to end. Smiler

When do you arrive in Darwin ? are you doing any other tours before or after?

You are going to love it here and the weather will be great during that time.

I am getting in at 1am the morning of the tour! it sux but its the only flight i could get from sydney and i have to work the day before.

Going back to sydney the day after the tour ends. are you staying on after the tour ends?

Ive had a look at the beaches and reef tour and you are going to awesome places, i have been to most of them and you are staring off in my home town.

If you need any info or have any questions just ask and ill be happy to help you out.
chat soon

hey ng!

thanks for the feedback... now I'm less worried.
I wasn't sure what i was getting into! Smiler

I'm supposed to spend at leat 1 night in Sydney at the end, but I may extend it if possible.

I'm still looking into the flight deals before I book all the tours.

I would like to spend more time In Sydney, cause none of the 2 tours seems to spend time there.

any suggestions on what I should be seeing in Sydney (must not miss! ) Smiler

Lots of great sights to see in sydney. The usual suspects - harbour bridge ( try and do a bridge climb) bondi beach, circular quay/the rocks, Newtown/paddigton = great shopping and restaurants - funky little place.
If you get a chance you would probably like to see the blue mountains but it is @2.5 hour drive from sydney though...
All depends what you are interested in?

I'll be staying 3 nights in Sydney after my first tour (Beaches & Reefs), then 2 nights in Darwin and then I'm doing the Territory & Outback tour! Smiler
I'll spend 1 night in Alice Springs after the tour, then another night in Sydney before I head back home!

Any suggestions on what to do in Darwin ??? Smiler
