Jim Jim falls was so impressive and double falls was definitely worth it! Seeing a crock swimming through the river was a highlight as well as lots of buffalo!
Highly recommend this tour!!

Liam took us up in his single engine propeller Cessna for an amazing bird's eye view of Kakadu National Park and Jabiru. He was incredibly informative and was a great guide.
There was so much to see with so many varying landscapes. It made us realise just how vast this picturesque national park really is. We got some amazing photos from both sides of the plane and many lovely videos.

Many thanks to our wonderful pilot Liam for his knowledgeable and humorous commentary.
The only down side was it was over way too soon.
Highly recommend to anyone considering taking this tour.

feel close to the rock country. Captain Jake provided an informative interactive commentary throughout the flight. Amazing scenery, especially with a distant thunderstorm providing a stimulating backdrop. The ability of the helicopter to go slow and low allowed top Photography and sightseeing. And being aloft as the sun was starting to set made for spectacular viewing.
Highly recommended.

Aaron answered all my calls and queries and was so helpful. Sam, our pilot, was brilliant. Smooth tour with lots of great commentary as well. An amazing 30 minute experience and I highly recommend NAH. Thanks Sam and Aaron.

Be aware that the helicopters can be flown with out the doors on which might seem strange and disconcerting to some but they can easily be put on if you are nervous about this. We didn’t have them on and the experience was brilliant. Also if you have a phone, camera or go prop putting it on a cord or tie around your wrist or neck will give you more confidence to take loads of photos as you aint getting it back if you drop it!
If you have the means definitely add this to your trip and would recommend you do this at the end of your holiday and after you have seen some of the sights at ground level.
Thank you Sam and the team for a truly memorable afternoon.

Kakadu Air offers two options, a 30 minute flight at $150 or a 1 hour flight at $250. And there is no doubt that 1 hour flight is the one you should opt for,
You will see stunning Jim Jim Falls and Twin Falls, Nourlangie Rock, Death Adder Valley, the famous Croc Hotel, the Jabiru township and the Ranger Uranium mine from the air, offering an entirely new perspective of this iconic part of Australia. On my flight, Miles our pilot was both informative and entertaining in his commentary, letting you know along the way what you are seeing and some of the stories behind it, All while smoothly and comfortably flying the plane.
Very much a must do for anybody exploring this magnificent part of Australia.
