Katherine Gorge Flight from Darwin, with Cruise and Heli Scenic
Overview
With a true departure from the ordinary, your journey will begin with an amazing aircraft flight south to the breath-taking Katherine Gorge. You will fly over the rugged Aussie Outback, including Adelaide River and Pine Creek. After landing at Australia's top gun facility you will take a short drive to the gorges.
The highlights continue with a helicopter flight taking you to hard-to-reach gorges that are as stunning as they are remote. This life-changing experience culminates with an awe-inspiring 2-hour boat cruise through the gorge, where you will be able to take in every remarkable aspect of the Katherine Gorge and understand its cultural heritage. Take a moment to relax before once again boarding a plane and returning to Darwin.
