Jeremy – South Africa

An epic adventure over the most stunning landscape. Memories for a lifetime.

S
Stephen – Hong Kong

Dave, our pilot, was very informative (and funny!), and he took the trouble of adjusting the altitude and direction of the helicopter to allow one of our group, a landscape photographer, to get good shots. Nice touch! The views along the coastline were spectacular, especially as we were flying at 5:00, just enough time before sunset that the light was perfect. I highly recommend this tour, and I think 50 minutes is an ideal amount of time.

Full description

Take off from the V&A Waterfront Helipad for spectacular views of the "Mother City" and Table Mountain. Glide over the venue for the 2010 World Cup, and then travel down the coast for bird's eye views of Lion's Head, Camps Bay and the beaches of Clifton.

Head for Karbonkelberg Mountain and soar over Hout Bay towards the Cape Nature Reserve. Take photos of the Cape of Good Hope and watch as the terrain changes as you approach False Bay and look for great white sharks in the ocean.

Return on the other side of Table Mountain for a different view of the landscape, passing the vineyards of Constantia Valley before landing back at the helipad.

Worth every penny! Cape Town Helicopters truly wanted us to have the best experience possible. Every staff member was super kind and service delivery was above and beyond. Our Pilot Meghan did an outstanding job and provided us with an experience we will never forget. Worth every penny - go for the longest tour available!
