Well worth the money.

Kakadu is huge so it’s great to do a flight over the land to give you the full prospective of this wonderful country. Troy was a great pilot with an interesting running commentary on the points of interest.

We had a half hour flight from Jabiru and the price and times would depend on the time of the year and length of flight. Contact the company direct as they were a very friendly crew.
