Amazing experience, good company - One of the best experiences ever!! All of us loved it, it’s a very unique way to see Cape Town from high up in the sky!! The staff was so friendly, the communication was very good and everything was organized very well. Would recommend everyone to do it, even if you have a fear of heights, it’s a very nice experience (and actually not scary at all!!). Thanks a lot to this company, we will come back to do it again one day!

10/10The Best Experience - I was very nervous going into this until I met Khalil and Howard who were the people preparing my flight. One thing I need to note if you go to Fly Cape Town, Khalil was my flight partner, he explained everything in a calm tone, he made me feel safe and sure that everything is okay and I should not panic, not like those people who yell what you can and cannot do. I think that was great that he was assertive, calm but also welcoming in his approach. I want to do this every Friday hahaha. It was so so lovely. Feeling the air softly rush around me was the most amazing feeling. The landing was spectacular as well. It was great. The people who run this also communicate all the time as it is weather dependent. I was worried they might not communicate but they are responsive and flexible. Thanks to everyone who made my flight great and special thanks Khalil (I hope I'm spelling his name right, he was really really nice).

A first. Not the last one! - Very welcome. They make it easier for you to park your vehicles. A few tens of minutes waiting for takeoff in anticipation of favorable conditions ( So justified of course) . The guys who accompany you for departure are very nice and efficient ( Grandpa of more than 100 kilos to move for the little stride before the jump in the void ) After the flight it is only happiness . Dave the pilot is great, smiling, professional. A panorama constantly in motion.Some turns made towards the end following the consent of the client.This stirs the stomach a little. Soft landing. Anyway, it's a must. Therefore, booking for a paragliding flight for this spring in Gourdon in the Maritime Alps.

Unforgettable - On a perfect Cape Town day, barely a breath of wind and a cloudless sky, our family of six had fantastic flights with the three tandem pilots from Fly Cape Town Paragliding. The views on the way down were amazing and at all times we all felt so safe. Highly recommended for any visitor to Cape Town.

Awesome tandem paragliding experience - Was lucky to be around when the wind direction was favorable and there happened to be an open time slot available that suited me to have the unique experience of tandem paragliding over Cape Town from Signal Hill. It was a beautiful sunny day and the views and flight were spectacular. Tandem Paragliding and Jake were excellent and flexible to work with and kept me informed about flying opportunities. Suggest adding on the option to the package to get the pictures and video from a handheld GoPro for awesome memories. Enjoyed something that I haven't had access to before. Would strongly recommend them if you are inclined to try this experience.

Don’t blink ! - We’d had a couple of aborted attempts to fly high, due to the weather conditions - the wind - changing without too much warning. And so it was that our re-arranged 12pm lift off was disrupted once more and brought forward by an hour - ‘The wind’s getting up again. Can you get here now ? If you don’t, you won’t fly’ was the urgent sounding voice and instruction on the other end of the phone. Less than a kilometre away suggested Google maps, but this was going directly ‘up’ from Seapoint. As it was, it took us a very concentrated 20 minutes to traverse the mountain by car and arrive at the meeting point atop Signal Hill…whereupon we parked up and concurrently, got kitted out whilst signing the all important indemnity form. Moments later - literally - we were aloft. It’s an altogether exhilarating experience, if not a little disconcerting being at the mercy of the elements. My pilot - experienced and reassuring - decided on a straightforward, linear descent, which in practise meant we were in the air for less than 5 minutes. Other pilots ‘dared’ to meander a little, but that only added on 90 seconds or so. The views are great, not least, those looking down directly on the Seapoint infrastructure. £70 ( + £20 if you want photographic evidence of your flight, which we did ! ) ! Worth it ? It’s not ‘thrilling’ in the skydiving sense but as a 3rd or 4th ‘best’ option, then ‘yes’ !

Very rude, risky making payments - My friends and I raised money for a 50th birthday present and when I went online to pay for the voucher (voucher was emailed over at 22:38) I realised that I had no idea if the company was legit or operating and as I was responsible for all the money Id better check. I looked for their online activity for evidence that they were still operating and couldn't find any Instagram posts in the past 3 years. I was worried so I clicked on the number across the front of the website and asked them if they were still operational. I didnt expect an immediate response of course. I got a response and it was very rude. They were angry that I had messaged so late and were very unpleasant. And still no reassurance. Unless you can pay in person be careful making any online payments.
