FROM THE AIR

What Your Clients Will See

The Highest Twin Falls in Western Australia

King George Falls is the headline act of any Kimberley scenic flight. The twin cascades drop sheer from the plateau into the gorge below, framed by sandstone walls that have stood for more than a billion years. Seen from the air, the scale of it lands in a way that ground-level viewing simply cannot match.

The helicopter can position your clients for the kind of perspective that ends up framed on a wall at home. It is one of the most photographed natural features in the region, and for good reason.

Trade tip: This is the shot clients come home talking about. When you are selling a Kimberley itinerary, the helicopter flight over King George Falls is the moment that justifies the whole trip in many travellers’ minds. Worth flagging early in the conversation.

Rugged Coastline Untouched by Time

The North Kimberley coast is one of the most remote and dramatic shorelines in Australia. From the air, your clients see striking coastal cliffs dropping into turquoise water, tidal systems shifting across vast flats, and a coastline that stretches to the horizon without a single sign of human settlement.

This is country you cannot reach by road. The helicopter opens up perspectives that even cruise passengers and lodge guests on the water never quite get to see.

Trade tip: The exclusivity is the selling point here. For high-yield clients who have done the polished destinations, the appeal of genuinely untouched wilderness viewed from above is a strong one. Emphasise the inaccessibility.

Ancient River Systems and Secret Gorges

Beyond the headline waterfalls, the Kimberley is laced with hidden gorges and winding river systems carved through ancient rock over unimaginable timescales. A helicopter reveals these in their full context – the way the rivers braid across the landscape, the colour shifts between red rock and green vine thicket, the sheer remoteness of it all.

Every flight follows the conditions and the season, so no two are exactly alike. That variability is part of the appeal for clients who want something that feels genuinely exclusive rather than packaged.

Trade tip: Good to pitch to repeat travellers or clients building an extended Kimberley programme. The aerial component adds a dimension that ground-based touring cannot replicate, and it photographs beautifully.

True North Helicopters – Our Flight Partner

Helicopter tours in the Kimberley are operated by our partner, True North Helicopters. All flights are offered on a shared charter basis and are subject to flight minimums, so we strongly recommend pre-booking before your clients arrive at the lodge to ensure availability and avoid disappointment.

Reservations are made directly with True North Helicopters via email with the preferred tour. Helicopter tours carry an additional fee, and current tour pricing can be obtained by contacting True North directly.

Trade tip: Because flights run on minimums and availability is finite during the dry season, early booking matters. Build the helicopter component into the itinerary at the quoting stage rather than treating it as a last-minute add-on. We can help coordinate this alongside the broader programme.
