Really enjoyed this flight and recommend. We took the 1/2 hour option which felt plenty long enough in a twin prop with 8 people. My only wish was that we were able to fly over some of the more famous landmarks/waterfalls. However what we saw was still amazing. It seems the 30 min flight gets you views over the uranium mine, wetlands and other features over the north east side of Kakadu. The pilot was very informative and professional. We were a tad nervous as he was very young but he did a great job.

The flight itself was the most enthralling, exciting experience I've had on a holiday, the best 'bang for buck' and I can't recommend it highly enough. The customer service from the ground staff and pilot was absolutely five-star. If you're visiting the Top End thsi is a 'must-do' experience.

Thanks for the experience Miles, great flight 👏 Really enjoyed the commentary and the views. Would love to see in wet season.

Doing the flight was a spur of the moment decision the night before however, we were very glad that we did. Yes it was hazy from the burning off that was being done but it still gave us an excellent overview of the area and greater understanding of the formations. Our pilot and trainee were great and we were informed the whole way. Really appreciated the fact that everyone has a window seat and that the wings are overhead allowing for a full and unimpeded view of this amazing place.

Great experience The only way to see the scale of the park. Magnificent views. It does get rather hot in the middle of the day though . Our pilot Josh was great and all staff were friendly and helpful

Brilliant! The pilot shared so much knowledge and played awesome Aussie music (Flight Facilities, Temper Trap and Rufus) which elevated the experience!

My parents and I took a scenic flight with Kakadu Air this November. It was an excellent experience. The three staff were happy and friendly to deal with, relaxed and professional. My Dad's got limited mobility and did just fine getting into the plane; given his inability to walk long distances the scenic plane trip allowed us to see so much more than we would have otherwise. We enjoyed the commentary from our pilot. A scenic flight is something I previously would've considered extravagant: I think differently now, and put in the same situation again (traveling with people who can't or don't want to do too much walking to get to places), I'd ditch the hire car and rather book a day trip from Darwin to Kakadu with Kakadu Air. The upfront cost is offset by 1.) no hire car 2.) less long distance driving 3.) fewer accommodation expenses, not to mention a ripper experience that allows one to see a lot within a short period of time.

Fantastic flight - John the pilot was a wealth of knowledge. Certainly worth doing while visiting the NT

Amazing views of Arnhem Land and Kakadu with pilot James. Friendly welcome and everything explained well with great commentary - so interesting. Views were fantastic over the Stone Country and East Alligator River - what a gem. It was a great flight with water supplied which was appreciated on such a warm afternoon. Thank you - I will be back in the wet season to see the difference!
