Tour programme
- Meeting & Preparation:
We will wait for you on the parking lot at the end of Signal Hill Road: you will recognize us thanks to our bright orange T-shirts. Here, you will be acquainted with our manager who will get you signed up, briefed and all geared up for your adventure. Then, safely harnessed to your certified tandem pilot, you will only have to take a few steps to take off and glide gently up into the air.
- Start and Flight:
You will have between 5 and 15 minutes of paragliding in Cape Town to enjoy a beautiful bird's-eye view of Table Mountain, Lion's Head, City Bowl and the Atlantic Ocean beneath your feet. Your pilot will give you live commentary as you fly over points of interest and try their best to give you a personalized flight, including for example some acrobatics before landing. If the weather conditions are good, you can even try to fly the paraglider by yourself.
- After Landing:
Once you have safely landed near the ocean, our team will bring you back to the take-off point. After the flight, you can decide on-site if you want to buy pictures and videos to remember this adventure and share it with your friends.
Please note that paragliding is weather dependent and that we may have to fly from another location like Lion's Head. We will inform you in advance.
