About Us

Our site ntstandby.com.au was launched on October 12th 2006.

It has been developed by Dino Scungio. Dino had previously operated the Darwin Holiday Shop in the Territory for eight years. The Darwin Holiday Shop (located within the Saville Park Suites, Darwin) specialised in organising tours, fishing, accommodation, The Ghan and car hire within the Northern Territory. Prior to this Dino had seven years experience in the accommodation industry as a manager of the Southgate Motel (Mount Gambier SA).

Passing through in 1997 with a mate and a 4WD, Dino instantly loved the landscapes and experiences that the Territory offered, on day two announcing, "I could live here", and like many current Territorians, ended up stay for years longer than he'd planned. His continued passion for exploring the Territory led him to tourism and travel and the eventual creation of ntstandby.

Cyndee Gliddon has been a part of the Darwin Holiday Shop since 1997, with her vast experience on tourism and travel in the NT, Cyndee and is an expert in providing the right advice for anyone visiting the Territory. Whenever she has the opportunity. Cyndee likes nothing more than to escape to the bush with her husband Ken and daughter Lydia.

If you need any advice regarding travel in the Northern Territory please feel free to give Dino or Cyndee a call on 0418 857892.
