Tandem Paragliding Cape Town - Fly Over Signal Hill & Lion's Head

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

Your first flight

No previous paragliding experience is needed. Your instructor explains take-off and landing before you launch, then handles the flying while you enjoy the view.

What to expect

Most flights last 10–20 minutes; light wind can mean a shorter flight. Landings are usually near Sea Point or Clifton, with the shuttle back included. GoPro photos and videos are optional.

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!
