WHAT IS "ASK DARRYL IN DARWIN" ?
It is a different kind of tourist service than is currently the norm in Darwin. Darryl combines his free information service with his private hire car/limousine transfers and sight seeing tours. Darryl has travelled Australia and the world extensively both in a personal and business sense and knows the pitfalls first hand. Being a local there are many things known, but rarely published in tourism brochures. For example you could spend an hour or two at the Go Karts, a great way for young and old alike to have a lot of fun, just go walking through the Botanical Gardens, hire a scooter or take a leisurely stroll to Darwin Wharf and Cullen Bay, and Darryl could show you the only two remaining remnants of Cyclone Tracy. The intention is to provide a cheerful, reliable service to take the hassle out of your holiday so you can really enjoy what Darwin has to offer.
This is especially useful if you are here for a short time and are confused with the huge array of tourist attractions, restaurants and accommodation on offer. Your stay may even clash with a Darwin Major Event like the V8 Supercars, AFL Premiership Matches, Darwin Horseracing Carnival, concerts or novelty events like Crab Tying, Darwin Beer Can Regatta, Wheelie Bin Races or Greek Glenti.
WHO IS DARRYL ANYWAY?
Darryl is a long term Darwin resident since 1973. Having survived Cyclone Tracy in 1974 he feels that he can withstand any challenge any body can throw at him. With all his contacts, both personal and business, built up since that time, he considers he is in a position to offer an independent view on all of Darwin’s attractions, restaurants, things to do etc. For 26 years he served as an HONORARY DIRECTOR with the Northern Territory Football League and is a former honorary Director of Cazaly’s licensed sporting club in Palmerston. For 8 years he was Manager of the Arafura Games, an International sporting event held in Darwin every 2 years that attracts 5,000 competitors.
DOES DARRYL CHARGE FOR THIS SERVICE?

HOW DOES DARRYL DIFFER FROM A TRAVEL AGENT?
Darryl provides impartial, honest suggestions on all aspects of Darwin but not only the large publicised tourist attractions.

Darryl provides relaxed, friendly advice on any questions you may have and tailors his advice on your age, family situation, disabilities and personal tastes. Because of the daily feedback he receives from his many friends and Limousine clients he is in a position to regularly review his recommendations and update this website.
