Last Thursday we did the "Kakadu in a Day Tour" from Darwin. We had a wonderful day and are happy to recommend it highly. Our pilot and tour guide for the day was Myles. His commentary was really interesting and I might add he landed the plane beautifully at the Yellow Water billabong. There were 6 guests in total on the trip. I have read some reviews in which people complained the flight was bumpy, yes it occasionally was a little bumpy but not more than you would expect from a small plane. I suffer from motion sickness and had no problems. The views of the landscape from above are amazing and something you wouldn't get to appreciate on a land trip. The Yellow Water Billabong cruise exceeded my expectations, heaps of crocodiles and amazing wildlife everywhere. The lunch at the Barra Bar was very nice and we had a choice of food, given the remoteness of the location we thought the food was of a high standard. We initially decided to go on the flight, rather than take a land only trip to Kakadu, as my partner has been ill and has mobility issues and we thought any land trip might involve too much walking. In hindsight we both agreed that even if we had had the option to take a land only tour we thought the flight had provided a much better experience. We would recommend it highly and found Myles and all the staff very friendly and helpful
