    Paragliding with Fly Cape Town Tandem Paragliding is an absolute must while in Cape Town. My entire family and I enjoyed this so immensely, feeling safe and taken care of through the whole process. My youngest son was 10 when we did this, and even he—despite some common bouts with anxiety and a general fear of heights—enjoyed this immensely. It’s so peaceful once you take off, and seeing this beautiful city from the quiet of the sky, moving from mountain to city to ocean, is an experience to truly remember.

    Had the experience of a lifetime with FlyCapeTown. It was my Birthday and I even got serenaded on my flight down to Bantry bay! Felt completely safe, all members of staff were reassuring and very professional. Can’t wait to come back and do it again.

    Bought a voucher for my girlfriend. Due to covid we were unable to fly. Fly Cape Town extended the voucher validity without any issues. We finally got around to making the booking and it was a quick and painless experience. My girlfriend also enjoyed the flight and said it was amazing. The instructors were helpful and communicated everything regarding the flight. Great service. Great flight experience. Would definitely go back and definitely recommend 👌

    Had the best experience paragliding over Cape Town with amazing views of Table Mountain, the ocean and Greenpoint stadium! Great communication from the team and Gerrie helped make sure my family was ready with their cameras before we landed.

    Absolutely loved the professionalism of this company as they kept us informed of weather updates for our parasail, and how they treated us before, during and after our flight. Great fun, fantastic senses of humour, and really made the most of the conditions to give us the best flight possible. Highly recommend!

    It was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Everyone was very professional and made it possible for us to paraglide with them even though we booked the day before. The communication via WhatsApp was nice and easy. On the day we were told they couldn't paraglide off Signal Hill. We kept in contact throughout the morning and they fit us in to fly from Lion's Head as the wind allowed. It's not common to fly off Lion's Head so this made the experience even more unique. Instructions on what to do were easy to understand and the paraglider made me feel comfortable and safe throughout. Highly recommend this professional company to experience flying over Cape Town and the beautiful beaches! Afterwards, head to Camps Bay for some good food!

    Wonderful experience. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. My pilot Johan was just the best. He explained a lot to me and made the flight super enjoyable. Highly recommend to anyone.

    Fly Cape Town Paragliding has my highest recommendation 🪂🪂🪂. The view over Signal Hill is fantastic, and the surge of excitement is amazing. I'd want to thank the pilot, Stephan Kruger, for being an excellent pilot and motivating me to think about getting a paragliding license 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿.

    such an epic experience! I had Jack as my tandem pilot and he was a legend. would recommend to anyone and everyone!

    To say my heart was pounding the entire time up until flight is an understatement. I kept asking myself why in the heck I was doing this to myself. 😂 But they paired me with one of the best instructors ever - Fanie. He was super patient and walked me through everything. In full transparency, as we were preparing for flight, my body just sank to the ground out of nowhere. We got tangled up with parachute cords so we had to do the prep again, then we were off to a smooth flight. It was truly a highlight of my trip ... I am grateful I stuck it through and did it.

    Felt safe and informed. Guides were good humored and knowledgeable! Both my young son & I enjoyed our good views running off Signal Hill. It was an exciting ride. I highly recommend this adventure seeking activity to anyone who lives in or visits the Mother City.

  • 5/5 Cory Z. 1 year ago on Google
    What a great experience! It really exceeded my expectations. Incredible views and a dose of adrenaline to go with them. The whole process was very streamlined. Showed up just before my booking and was in the air fifteen minutes later. Communication through WhatsApp was excellent, the guide was experienced and adapted the ride to our levels of comfort. Would definitely recommend to anyone living in or visiting cape town to do at least once!

    What an amazing experience I had, it is definitely worth the price and my pilot Funny was the best 😁😁😁

  • 5/5 Danielle C. 1 year ago on Google
    We originally booked for the day before but as we were waiting, it was cancelled due to weather. We went back the next day and got away in quick time! Such a good experience, super helpful and friendly staff and really well organised!

  • 5/5 Jessica R. 1 year ago on Google
    Our experience with Fly Cape Town exceeded our expectations! The whole team has such great energy and made our time nice and personal, from booking the session, to flying, right to the end where they helped us get our footage. We had to cancel a few times due to weather conditions, but I’m so glad we did! Because we got to be in the air for about 20mins and launched from lions head. There wasn’t one second where I felt unsafe or uncomfortable, it was all a breeze. If you’re choosing a company to fly around this beautiful city with, definitely choose these guys, they’re fantastic.

    So much fun. The entire experience was very well communicated and coordinated, beginning with daily updates on the wind conditions and very flexible in terms of shifting to a new day. Even though the actual flight was only a few minutes, it was very well worth it. I had an excellent pilot. Would do it a again any time.

  • 5/5 Busi R. 1 year ago on Google
    The most amazing experience ever, done by professionals who make the whole experience even better with their calmness and humour. Loved every moment, from the time I was booking to the landing. Highly recommended 👌

    Very nice experience! We where with 5 and they took us flying in two rounds. All arranged via the WhatsApp button on the website, very easy.

    Taking advantage of the amazing weather on the day, we booked a flight with Fly Cape Town Paragliding for my 16 year old son. Booking was made easy in spite of us having connection issues with our phones and not being able to receive calls. The team were happy to contact us over WhatsApp to confirm our booking details and give us all the info we needed. They gave us clear directions from the Waterfront to Signal Point and we received a friendly greeting when we arrived. They were then very happy to wait before commencing the flight to allow us to drive down to Sea Point to watch the descent from there. I recommend the R300 additional extra of having the flight recorded on the GoPro camera as we got great video footage and loads of stills. These were immediately uploaded on to my phone at the landing site so we could watch the action back right away. Fly Cape Town enhanced the overall experience and made it even more fun. Thanks guys, we really appreciate it.

    My tandem paragliding experience was amazing! The team is friendly and enthusiastic. My time in the air was exhilarating and the views are stunning. I highly recommend Fly Cape Town. Make sure to add the photography and video option to capture your memorable trip. Thank you for a memorable experience Fly Cape Town 🪂

  • 5/5 RAY F. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best experiences Cape Town has to offer. The staff were very friendly and kept us up to date constantly. As this adventure is so dependent on the wind conditions, be prepared for last minute changes as mother nature does not follow a schedule LOL! But once you get up in the air it is all worth the wait! A definite must on the TO DO LIST!

  • 5/5 Gabrielle F. 2 years ago on Google
    I had the most INCREDIBLE experience with Gly Cape Town Tandem. It has been something on my bucket list for so long, and it was everything I hoped for and more. Zenti, my 'pilot' was fun, informative and went the extra mile. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Debbie M. 2 years ago on Google
    I faced by absolute fear of heights and been suspended in the air with nothing but a paraglider. It was an absolutely amazing and exhilarating experience and am so so glad I did it. The views of Cape Town were absolutely spectacular. All the staff were absolutely amazing and so so kind (as they knew how petrified I was). A special thank to Jake for booking and rescheduling by paraglide.....and a VERY BIG THANK YOU to Zenti who kept me calm and gave me the most incredible experience. I will DEFINITELY do it again, and next time will be a bit more adventurous. Thank you once again. LOVED IT😍😍💃

    Fantastic experience. Loved the landing and I’d definitely do this again. Thanks to team: Eddie, Stephan and the rest ❤️❤️❤️

    What an exhilarating experience for both my sister and I. Totally out of our comfort zone. From the very first steps to lift off all the way through to touch down it was obvious that we were in the hands of highly skilled/experienced pilots. Their constant pleasant insightful interaction quickly dispelled all anxiety. An experience of a lifetime.
