Fantastic experience.

Experience was not value for money
Janina_J
, Jun 2022
Old and shabby airplane - Sitting in the airplane in the middle seat meant that visibility of the horizontal falls was limited. The plane flew quite high over the falls…. Experience was like watching a video
The tour was meant to be a half day but went from 9 am till 4.30pm - a lot of faffing around - lunch , swim and visit to aquaculture business seemed to just be padding out time and were very ordinary as experiences
Overall I felt it was not value for money
The young pilots Ryan and Ollie however were delightful.
Response from Host , Jun 2022
Hi Janina,
Thank you for taking the time to review your recent tour experience with us. Your feedback is very surprising, and we are very disappointed to hear the tour did not meet your expectations.
The aircraft you travelled in was a Cessna Grand Caravan which isn’t old nor is it shabby, so I find it difficult to make comment. We don’t normally fly the Cessna Grand Caravan on our tours however given the inundation of bookings at present, to ensure all visitors to Broome have the opportunity to experience the Kimberley during busy times, we utilise this aircraft on occasion. The seating allocation is determined by the weight and balance of the aircraft and whilst we endeavour to allocate couples in the 2-seat configuration, we can’t always achieve this. We also have a minimum legal height that we can overfly the falls at which still allows for spectacular views of the Horizontal Falls. Our full day tours are 12 hours in duration, our Buccaneer Explorer is approximately 6-7 hours long hence why we call it a half day tour.
Our Buccaneer Explorer is a 5-star experience and was recently awarded Viator ‘Best of the Best’ Top 20 experience in Australia & NZ based on guest reviews. As you are aware our tour encompasses the stunning Kimberley Coastline, Horizontal Falls, Buccaneer Archipelago with a stopover at Ardyaloon to experience an Indigenous Community and to share and learn about the Bardi-Jawi culture. The use of “Ordinary experiences, faffing around and padding out” is most disappointing and not consistent with the other 502 amazing reviews. Our most common feedback from guest reviews is “exceptional value for money” and this is something we focus heavily on including the extra small touches we provide throughout the day.
Ryan and Ollie however thank you for the kind feedback, they are much valued and very popular members of our team. They are also surprised and disappointed with your review as it appeared to them that you enjoyed your day.
At Air Kimberley, we pride ourselves on providing unforgettable guest experiences with exceptional customer service. We are also very passionate about supporting Indigenous communities and enterprises embracing the Kimberley country and culture across all of our tours, it’s a shame you were unable to appreciate this experience.
Please feel free to contact us if you wish to discuss this further. Hopefully we can look forward to welcoming you back for another tour in future to allow us the opportunity to meet your expectations and ours.
Warmest Regards,
Ash

A great day flying over the majestic Horizontal Falls.

Thanks to our pilots Amy and Olie for an awesome day. We were met with smiles and friendly service and that did not stop. The flyover the Horizontal Falls was incredible with the flight timed to see the flows at their peak. A nice lunch and an informative tour at One Arm Point. (though it was a little too windy to swim on our day). Then a flight over the coast line highlighting sites and history; and we got a perfect sunset from the air!!!
Well worth it

We had a fantastic 1/2 day tour, which was really almost a full day tour - 8:30 to 3:30pm! Our pilot, Ben, was fantastic in showing us the beautiful sites in the Dampier peninsula, Bucaneer archipelago and the coastline back to Broome. Ben also provided some history on the area. Ben was excellent at catering to our needs. I boarded the plane feeling very anxious about flying and due to Ben’s flying skills by the end of the trip I had no qualms! I can’t recommend this tour group more.
A special, and spectacular day

Absolutely amazing experience and worth every penny. The views over Horizontal falls and Dampier peninsula were just gorgeous and the atmosphere in the tour was fun and relaxed. Our pilot Ollie was great and made sure everyone felt safe during the flights. Awesome day and definitely best part of my Broome trip!

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
