Explore the park's ancient rock art sites, take a boat cruise along the picturesque waterways, and spot unique Australian fauna such as saltwater crocodiles and colorful bird species. Kakadu National Park offers a truly wild and immersive experience for nature lovers and those seeking a deeper understanding of Indigenous culture.

We had the most magic day. Beyond expectations. Austin was or pilot for the day and Matthew, the co, we got 2 guys for the price of 1. So informative showing the rivers and sites over to Yellow river, all at 3000+ feet. Great tour on the river, lots of crocks, birds and beautiful plant life. Home in 40 minutes at 8000+ feet. Thanks guys for a fabulous day. The only way to fly 😊

Four of us arrived at 8.00am and were airborne by 8.30am in a 6 seater plane with two pilots Austin and Matthew, so it was a really a private trip. We flew at low level (3500 feet) over the Mary, Adelaide, and all the Alligator rivers, marvelling at their twists and turns before circling the Jabiru Uranium mine and landing at Cooinda airstrip, having had 2 hours in the air. Seeing the extent of the Kakadu escarpment from the air was wonderful too. On arrival we had very good coffee's at the Lodge (own expense) before going on the 90 minute Yellow Waters cruise, seeing lots of small crocodiles and lovely birds. We then had a quick lunch back at the Lodge at our own expense before the less than 1 hour flight home. The pilots were knowledgeable and sought higher altitudes when the flight got a bit bumpy and uncomfortable. Visibility was great each person has their own section of window. We were anxious to get back to Darwin asap and the pilots obliged. My only issue was that we back seat passengers could hear the commentary but couldn't ask questions through the headset.

Jack was a professional pilot and friendly guide. There were 3 groups of 2 of us. We all expressed our thanks to Jack for the experience at Katherine Gorge and Kakadu. Sam, our helicopter pilot at Katherine was well informed, friendly and professional. My husband and I really enjoyed our 1st top end trip. We do recommend JFC / kookaburra air.
