Price range: R1700

Tandem Paragliding from Signal Hill & Lion’s Head

See Cape Town from the air with a family-run team of experienced tandem instructors. Fly above the Atlantic coastline, with the city below and Table Mountain in view. Your instructor chooses Signal Hill or Lion’s Head according to the wind and conditions on the day.

First time flying? You’re welcome here.

No previous paragliding experience is needed. Before take-off, your instructor explains what to do for launch and landing. In the air, they handle the flying while you enjoy the view.

What to expect

Most flights last 10–20 minutes, although light wind can mean a shorter flight. Landings are usually near Sea Point or Clifton, and the shuttle back is included. GoPro photos and videos are available as an optional extra. Read the flight details and prices before you book.

A family team with championship experience

Our team is led by 2026 South African Nationals Champion Francois de Villiers, who learned to fly from his father. Years of local flying, competition and shared learning shape the way we prepare for each flight. Meet Cape Hope Paragliding.

Planning your first flight? Our FAQs cover what to wear, age and weight requirements, and weather. Book early in your Cape Town visit to leave room for rescheduling if conditions change. For questions or a group of more than five, message us on WhatsApp.

  Took my daughter paragliding for her 18th birthday and it was such an incredible experience. Highly professional, it helps that the one guide is the present SA paragliding champion and the other guide is his farther that that was the SA champion 20 years ago. They also made it a great experience in how they engage with you throughout the process - a great team. I can hands down recommend them.

  I had the best experience with François! My nerves were quickly eased by his friendliness and confidence. The flight had been postponed until we had the right conditions but it was so worth the wait!
