Dangerous gamble with your lives

My wife and myself arrived at air port to take a trip of a life time in a helicopter over kakadu To our surprise we were escorted to a very tired looking 50 yr old single single engine was light plane We were then informed that a small part of this tour only was to be a helicopter flight We then refused to get a board the old machine and was informed that the helicopter was even older So I asked for a refund and was told that I unfortunately we used a secondary suppler and they don’t refund The advertisement for this misleading and hides the truth $3,500 to risk your life unnecessarily

Flying out at sunrise was so picturesque. The amazing vastness of the NT. Pilot Steve was just lovely. Takeoffs and landings smooth as. Helicopter ride over Katherine Gorge was stunning. Yellow Water river cruise so pretty. Being able to view all of this in such a succinct way and enjoy the landscape from the air was a bucket list moment.

Very fun day tour.

This tour was a lot of fun. Pricey- but worth it. Three plane flights, one helicopter flight and a boat tour all in one day certainly made the day click along! Getting to see the parks from above was fun. Riding in the little plane was fun, The helicopter ride (no doors) was a blast....and the pilot was a really nice guy who loves flying and was happy to tell us all about helicopters too. We saw some crocodiles on the boat trip along with a million birds, flowers etc. That guide was also someone thrilled with their job. Pilots nice young men who were pleased to talk about flying. All in all...it was a really fun, positive day with a lot of people who seemed to really enjoy their work. Only downside is the price....but even then when you consider a whole day's private flying ... it is probably a deal. I highly recommend the tour.

Great day! This is an expensive tour but worth it. The flight over Kakadu was a highlight and a sensational way to see it, including the fly by of Jim Jim falls. The boat tour was also really great. Our pilot Dan was excellent and our driver was very informative. The Helicopter ride was a great way to see Katharine Gorge. Highly recommend this tour as a once in a lifetime way to see these sites and avoid the lengthy bus trips.

Food and drink should be included. Otherwise a good way to see a vast country.

The best part of the day was the Yellow River cruise. Our guide was very knowledgeable and we saw plenty of wildlife. Our pilot could have been more talkative. Telling us something of the trip up there. The helicopter could have gone lower to the gorges. We did not have any food or drink included. At the price we had to pay it is outrageous that lunch at Kakadu was not included.

Incredible trip

What an incredible way to explore the Top End! We were really able to appreciate the vastness of the landscape from the air as well as see the wildlife of Kakadu. Absolutely amazing! My only advice if you plan to take this trip...The helicopter ride was stunning but definitely can trigger some motion sickness!

Very well organised and a great way to get a taste of Katherine gorge and Kakadu in 1 day if you don’t have much time. Our pilot Dan was amazing and looked after us all day. The helicopter ride at the gorge was a highlight. Pack some snacks and drinks
