About this tour
Fly over Kalgoorlie's legendary gold mine in a 30-minute aerial tour that reveals the true scale of this sprawling excavation. The Super Pit—stretching 3.5 kilometres long, 1.5 kilometres wide and plunging over 600 metres deep—is best appreciated from the air, where you can take in the entire operation at once. All taxes and landing fees are included; bring your camera for shots you won't manage from ground level.

What to expect
You'll board a small aircraft and lift off for a focused half-hour loop around Kalgoorlie's mining operations. The pilot will navigate to give you unobstructed views of the sprawling pit—the scale only becomes apparent when you see the entire basin from above. The flight itself is straightforward; expect to spend most of the time looking down at the geometric precision of the excavation, the stockpiles, and the machinery that gives you a sense of industrial scale. Bring a window seat preference if you have one.
