Fantastic way to see the vastness of Kakadu, coming out of the wet season the road to Jim Jim Falls was closed, so we got to see it by air! The pilot was knowledgeable and skilled with his angled flying!

Kakadu Air Services were fantastic for our scenic flight over Kakadu. The Pilot, Josh and his co-pilot, Liam, gave us a brilliant experience. Very professional service and wonderful commentary during the flight. This was the best thing we did on our Kakadu trip. Incredible value for money. I would highly recommend.

We are Darwin locals and have been to Kakadu numerous times, but to see it from the air was spectacular.
Kakadu Air went above and beyond and we couldn't fault them.
Highly recommended!
A must do when visiting Kakadu.

So glad we did this. You get a very different perspective of the Kakadu floodplains and ridges from the air. We hope the photos do justice to the experience. Our pilot provided a good commentary highlighting what we were seeing and also what it would look like in the wet season.

An awesome experience! Well worth the cost. We had a super friendly and informative pilot, who shared lots of really interesting information about Kakadu’s landscape, history and people. It was really cool to see Kakadu from above. Lots of great photo opportunities.

Fantastic to see Kakadu from this aspect. Seeing the contrasting landscapes combined with the excellent commentary from Cameron the pilot, this flight was a highlight for us.
Terri_F, May 2021
Just amazing. A great perspective to demonstrate the enormity and diversity of Kakadu and Arnhem land. As it was dry season we didn't see the falls but flew over the bordering river. From wetlands to dramatic escarpments and fantastic views of east Alligator river. Friendly and informative staff.

I am usually a nervous flyer but to my amazement and Ben’s wonderful reassurance and skill I was not at all anxious! Thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone
