Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Best decision we made to see both Porcupine Gorge and White Mountains with Fox Helicopter. David gave us plenty of time for scenic shots both in the air and on ground. Beautiful picnic in a gorge riverbed with yummy food and chocolate ❤️ not to mention a great helicopter flight couldn't ask for a better day.

Dave our pilot/Guide knows his stuff, his passion for flying and the land and stories it tells. Made for a most enjoyable adventure. Do youself a favour if you are in Hughenden book a flight to Porcupine Gorge and White Mountain, you will see something that is only accessible except by Helicopter . we had a most enjoyable day. Thanks Dave you are a legend.

Absolutely stunning views, coupled with highly informative commentary by Dave our pilot, who is passionate about this area. Landed on a rock shelf in a gorge for delicious morning tea. We were so thrilled by the trip, our feet really didn’t touch the ground till hours after we landed!

Our flight with Dave from Fox Helicopter Services was absolutely fantastic. Our tour included flying over Porcupine Gorge and White Mountains National Park with its little known extensive gorge area.
Part of the experience included landing helicopter in a remote gorge for a cuppa with delicious homemade goodies and a refreshing swim.
Dave was a relaxed easy going guy with a wealth of knowledge of both National Parks and the region in general- pointing out many landmarks on our way.

Pilot David, highly experienced and knowledgeable about Porcupine Gorge and the White Mountain National Park. The scenery is spectacular. Morning tea in the Flinders River observing ancient rock carvings in the sandstone. If you like helicopter tours and the outback this tour is for you.

You see what makes the Outback of Australia so unique. The endlessness, all these things you don’t even know about and you can’t enter in another way. The flight was personalised and felt so easy and relaxed and not like some other tours. David knows so much about the Nationalpark and the whole area. The food stop was nice with cheese and cracker, a drink and other choices.
Beautiful experience. Would recommend everyone to do it. It’s definitely worth the money.

Today was an amazing flight over the stunning Porcupine Gorge then the completely different but awesomly stunning White Mountain. Our flight planning had a few weather delays and our availability between 2021 and today. David our pilot has been so professional in working with the issues and today our window of opportunity happened. So extremely pleased with the entire professional, friendly experience. We love all the Australian landscape diversity and HIGHLY recommend Fox Helicopters for a brilliant aerial view of our amazing Australia. Thankyou David and Fox Helicopters.

We had an absolutely fantastic flight. Dave was warm and welcoming. He was very knowledgeable and gave an excellent commentary about the gorge and was responsive to all our questions. He made sure we got all the photos we wanted and even said he’d fly around a site again if we had not captured a particular view. Terrific experience. Thankyou.

We were taken over Porcupine Gorge by David. It was amazing. It is something we will never forget. David was so informative. We cannot recommend this enough.

Couldn’t recommend this more to anyone and everyone! Absolutely breathtaking views with so much knowledge of the area from the pilot. Afternoon tea was delicious and enjoyed by a quiet spot along the river.
