Lost City Helicopters offers scenic helicopter flights and charter services from Heartbreak Hotel in the Northern Territory.

They take you over the majestic Cape Crawford Lost City, a breathtaking formation of thousands of sandstone pillars that can only be fully appreciated from the air. Their flights reveal the scale and magnificent beauty of this extraordinary landscape, offering a truly unforgettable adventure.

Their experienced pilots bring decades of aviation and tourism expertise, with in-depth knowledge of the region's unique geology, flora, fauna, and history, adding rich insight to every flight. Based at Heartbreak Hotel, at the intersection of the Carpentaria and Tablelands Highways, approximately 100 km west of Borroloola along the Savannah Way, they operate flights seasonally during the Northern Territory dry season, from April through early October.

Tours available

Vista Explorer 30 minute scenic flight

The Cape Crawford Lost City is over 20 miles long so why not cruise along half its length with this breathtaking flight over canyons, archways, pillars, caves, overhangs, balancing rocks, keyholes and lush springs? At the southern end we turn around a beautiful waterfall* before heading home to soak it all up again from an even better angle.

*Water will usually only "fall" over some waterfalls until around mid May however the drop pools remain year round
