We meet all guests upon arrival at the Alotau cruise port terminal. This tour has two daily sessions named Tour#1 and Tour#2. Tour#1 starts at 9.30am and ends at 12.30pm and Tour#2 starts at 1.30pm and ends at 4.30pm.

Our tour guides will be available on the day as early as 7am before the cruise ship guests disembark. There will be a pre-departure briefing before the start of the tour. The tour will start from Wahuhuba, the south-eastern part of Alotau, where the Japanese Imperial Army initially landed in Milne Bay in 1942. Then the tour will take guests into the heart of Alotau and then leave the boundaries of the town towards the north-west to the Gurney Airport. Along this stretch of the road is where most of the intense fighting took place. There are stop overs along the tour route including at the Corporal John French Memorial, Peter Turnbull Memorial and Gurney Airport.

The tour helps one learn more about WWII history in Milne Bay and remember the sacrifices. Lest we forget.
