Was blown away by what we experienced. The whole half day was an absolute experience, from Riley our pilot to Callum and Ben our guides in the boat! This is the experience of a lifetime, that everyone should do. Their knowledge was so well put. The breakfast was excellent. Everyone involved should take a bow! Thank you, we will spread the word near and far!

That components that...

Uwe_S, Apr 2026
That components that provided hori-falls team were excelent. The organizational part that came from Viator was the worst I‘ve ever seen. Mails with wrong information, responds that got no reaction and further more. In my eyes the Viator organization and their IT-system looks very unprofessional. At the moment I would recommend the tour, but not with Viator Best regards Uwe Stoltz

Horizontal Falls a must!

donna_c, Aug 2025
Well organised Excellent and professional staff Lovely lunch We went through the falls multiple times

Bucket list but overall rushed.

Kylie_C, Aug 2025
It was very rushed. Collected from designated spot by bus, driven to hanger, put into groups, weighed and board our flights, on arrival to Talbot bay coffee and tea offered. It was early I was staving as we had to meet the bus at 5am. Shark feeding and swim, it was 7am maybe breakfast then swim. Breakfast was served average buffet breakfast, pastry and slice stale. Then we were loaded into speed boats for cyclone alley and horizontal falls returned to mother ship, barely time to go to the bathroom before we were loaded back onto the plane for Broome. The scenic flight was good and then we returned to flying over the scrub for the last 40mins of the trip. For the cost it could have been a whole lot better if not rushed so much, this is bucket list item.

Horizontal Falls via Seaplane trip

Lorraine_C, Aug 2025
Fantastic trip to the Falls. Swim with sharks then a great barramundi lunch. Flight on the seaplane there and back amazing. Well worth it

We must keep this beautiful TOURQUISE WONDERLAND open for ALL to see

Mary_D, Jul 2025
It was perfectly organised so we were all comfortable and able to enjoy. In a group of 11 with prob over 24 more we felt alone. It was great. Food was amazing The aircraft was flown beautifully by Dana d we appreciated the scenes over the Dampier on the way up. We found the actual trip over the falls was more exciting than expected. Our trip in 2013 was cancelled and refunded due to bad weather, so we made a return as planned

Great tour. Seeing this...

Breathtaking experience

Debra_L, Apr 2025
Incredible seaplane ride with spectacular views, shark feeding upclose, delicious fresh barramundi lunch & salad, breathtaking boat ride followed by return flight to Broome with a spectacular sunset! Great service, informative guides & thrilling!

One of a kind experience!

Francis_S, Oct 2024
A must do to experience the Kimberley. The float plane ride was a first for us. It was warm so the flight had a few unpleasant moments due to the heat. But the pilot was great. The Horizontal falls were amazing. One of a kind. Tip: check the tidal variance on the days you are looking at. Bigger the better. The guides were informative and friendly. The breakfast was good. Unless it is hot and you need a dip, I would pass on the option to swim as you are in a caged area and can actually see more from the platform than in the water. The early pickup for the morning tour was challenging but worth it for the experience.

Majestic views

Anonymous, Oct 2024
A fabulous day out in such a majestic region. Many thanks to our pilot, Papa John, for a very smooth & informative flight.

This trip is a must for everyone from the moment we were picked up. Flight in a Seaplane, Such beautiful scenery, there was swimming in a shark proof cage or just look down from above while they were being fed, a great breakfast, then that amazing boat ride through the falls, thank you for such an awesome day

I stayed vertical at horizontal falls

Michael_S, Oct 2023
Up Close and personal with the falls with professional and polite crew. Sumptuous breakfast and a swim with the sharks.
