The day in the life of an aerial visit to Cape Town - The day in a life of an aerial visit to Cape Town what a wicked morning.
After travelling many times with the Cape Town helicopter company, I felt I just had to make this review on the quality of service.
On our arrival we were greeted with kindness and all 17 of us were invited to a coffee and use the very pristine bathrooms that they had available. We did a briefing that was done really professionally it was we were sped up into Groups. don’t work for us.
The journey was amazing a clear sky over table mountain and Lions head, it was so clear this morning that we could see the entire body of the lion not just its head. The pile was engaging on the flight and pointed out so many wonderful sites with professionalism.
We took the longer flight between 40 and 50 minutes which gave us the view of the whole Peninsula. I recommend doing that the prices were reasonable and worth every rand dollar euro paid.
I would not hesitate to recommend both the flight and the visit to Cape Town.
The staff made it all work, they were professional and could clearly see that they enjoyed the work in the experience, they did absolutely everything they could to help us on our journey
The names you can see below is just a few of the staff that were prominent in our experience.
I have no hesitation in recommending this company to anyone visiting Cape Town, you can drive all day and see the Peninsula or you can see it in 40 minutes. We opted for the 40 minutes and it was worth every cent paid for it.
Thanks to the staff below and a lovely welcome we received.

Spectacular and amazing experience not to be forgotten. - What a fabulous experience and what an amazing company. From our first meeting with the company to our drop off at hotel, it has been perfect. The people working for the company are very friendly and accommodating, so helpful. Our 50 min helicopter trip was awesome, the beauty of Cape Town and all the peninsula along with commentary from our pilot very informative. Our boat cruise was fun and the team were great, very welcoming and informative. We felt well looked after which made us more relaxed and enable us to embrace the truly amazing and beautiful coastlines. You must be so proud of your success.

Helicopter and free boat trip Cape Town. - Pick Up was from our hotel which was on time.
The flight was on time we were the only 2 on the flight so I got to sit next to the captain who was very knowledgeable he gave a running commentary as we were going along pointing out places of interest it was a nice smooth flight.
As part of the price you could opt to have a free boat trip round the coast we did this around an hour after the flight on the same day.
We were transported to the free boat trip in a golf buggy by a very pleasant young male member of staff the boat was around a 5 minute drive away.
The captain and staff members on the boat were all very happy and helpful they have alcohol or soft drinks on board which you can purchase the staff members helped take photos for everyone.
A very enjoyable experience by air and sea would thoroughly recommend this company.

Fabulous Afternoon - An amazing afternoon flying the full Peninsula and then landing at Klein Constantia for wine tastings and lunch. Landed on the lawn there and was taken to the tasting rooms in the wineries open jeep. Very cool.
Then the fun started tasting amazing wines, a nice tour and then a great lunch.
The flight of the Peninsula was awesome, very clear and calm with an amazing outlook of the beach’s and mountains. After the winery stop we took off and landed at the International Airport which made our SA departure very easy and memorable.
The helicopter and our pilot Ryan were fantastic. Ryan was very knowledgeable and funny. It was a great experience. Thanks Ryan and the whole team.

Cape Town Must Do Tour - An incredible experience in a beautiful and very well maintained helicopter. You can see everything, all around the peninsula which is a must do in Cape Town. The pilot (Megan) was amazing explaining everything. Even the facility is amazing.

Spectacular tour of Cape Town & Cape of Good Hope from above - It’s the most expensive helicopter tour they have but totally worth it. Lasts almost an hour and you get to see all of Cape Town, the peninsula and Cape of Good Hope from above. Also be sure to ask for the 1 hour catamaran tour of Cape Town by sea which is included in the price of the helicopter tour.
