Absolutely amazing first helicopter experience over the Daintree rainforest and outer reef . Luke our pilot was very informative throughout our flight and ensured everyone go to see the sights. We managed to spot many sharks and turtles while flying over the outer reef, in near perfect conditions. The man who collected us from our accommodation and drop us back was also very professional. All round a wonderful once in a lifetime experience over a special part of Australia.
Great flight

We took a reef and rain forest flight to celebrate our anniversary, and Nautilus absolutely impressed.
You get an amazing perspective of the reef from the air. Flying over the barron gorge was a highlight.
We'd recommend Nautilus.
Breathtaking Experience of the Reef and Rainforest

Wow! What an experience. We did the the hour trip and had great views of the reef and saw dolphins & alone stingrays. Then over pristine rainforests. Ground staff & Piolet (didn't mention his name) did an awesome job. Would certainly recommend this trip.
Fantastic flight

We did the rainforest and reef one hour flight out Port Douglas in early January which we found to be very enjoyable.

The flight started in Port Douglas, flew over the township, proceeded onto Mossman Gorge and then finally out to sea. Being in a helicopter, the skilful pilot was able to manoeuvre helicopter in close which allowed us to see the great rainforest of the Daintree in all it’s splendour.

The flight to the reef was also interesting but we were on unlucky and only saw a few rays moving amongst the reef. We couldn’t fault the pilot, he was skilful, friendly, knowledgeable and obliging. We felt very safe in the 4 person helicopter as it appeared to us to be well maintained and serviced and crewed.

The only negative, of the whole experience was finding the landing field, as a Helipad is only obvious when they’re have helicopters parked on it. We were lucky, as we spotted the ground vehicle and small signs near the potential landing spot.

Highly recommend the experience.
