Step off Signal Hill. Land grinning.
Cape Town’s most experienced tandem team. Thirty-four years, thousands of flights, and the calmest way you’ll ever see Table Mountain, from the air.
You might feel nervous before takeoff. Everyone does. Then your feet leave the ground, the fear turns to calm, and suddenly you’re flying.
If you’ve ever dreamed of flying, this is your chance to make it real. We take you out of your comfort zone, safely, and show you a view of Cape Town you will never forget.
Every flight is led by a certified pilot who handles everything from takeoff to landing. You just sit back, breathe, and take it all in. No experience needed. No leap of faith. Just a few gentle steps, and the sky.

The things you’re actually wondering.
Everyone starts a little nervous. Here are honest answers to what nearly every first-timer asks us.
Ask us anything on WhatsAppDo I have to run off a cliff?
No leap, no drop. You take a few gentle steps forward with your pilot, and the wing lifts you both off the ground before you even realise it. It’s far calmer than it looks.
Will I feel sick?
Most people don’t. A tandem flight is a smooth, steady glide, not a rollercoaster. If you’d prefer it extra mellow, just tell your pilot and they’ll keep it gentle the whole way.
What if the weather is bad?
We only fly when it’s safe. If the wind or weather doesn’t play along on your day, you reschedule for free. And since there’s no deposit, you never lose a cent.
Can I fly with a disability?
Yes. We fly passengers with a range of disabilities. Get in touch before you book and we’ll talk through your flight and make it happen.
How long am I in the air?
Flights typically last around 10 to 20 minutes in the air depending on conditions. Allow about 45 minutes for the whole experience, from briefing to landing.
Everyone lands with a big smile.
