Kakadu Air - One Day Kakadu Air Safari
THE ESSENTIAL ESSENCE OF THIS TOUR IS TRAVELLING BY AIRCRAFT TO ENABLE AN EXTENSIVE SIGHTSEEING FLIGHT AND INCLUDE GROUND TOURING OPTIONS. ROUND TRIP DARWIN TO KAKADU IS 6 HOURS BY ROAD.
Kakadu is dual-listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List for its outstanding natural and cultural values. No trip to the Northern Territory is complete without a visit to this iconic National Park.
Kakadu in a day is the ideal tour for the time poor looking to include all the "must-do's" of Australia's largest National Park; Kakadu. Enjoy 1.5 hours of spectacular scenic flying, cruise on the Yellow Water billabong, visit the Warradjan Cultural Centre and still be back in Darwin for late afternoon and evening activities.
The Northern Territory celebrates 2 seasons; Wet and Dry. We fly all year around and our Kakadu tour itinerary will differ slightly between the seasons.
