  • Wow what a great visit. The guides were brilliant and we accessed all areas. Very informative. The RFDS are super brave and deserves our respect.

  • Fantastic to see RFDS in action. Tour guide was very knowledgeable. Unfortunately the hangar wasn’t open and won’t be for the next month or so while they’re filming the TV drama series

  • Definitely an experience to learn and look at the wonderful work the Royal Flying Doctors Service do for outback Australia. An entry fee gets you a guided tour, well worth it. Souvenirs available. RFDS well worth supporting.
  • Great tour of the RFDS. Really informative and interesting to learn about how they operate. We arrived an hour before close and the staff were still really welcoming and accommodating, giving us the best tour they could in the short amount of time we had there. Highly recommend visiting to learn about all the great work the RFDS do for people living in the Australian outback.
  • A must. This is the only one of their locations you can tour. Very interesting and you get a feel of just how wonderful their contribution to our society is. We had no idea of just how broad their services are.
  • Amazing place. This service is vital. Staff were super friendly and the tour was awesome.
  • I had a tour and it was amazing. The volunteers looked after me ensuring I had seen the whole tour and were very knowledgeable. Well worth the visit.
