Very smooth, pleasant, astonishingly beautiful flight across the shore of Cape Town. Beautiful view of the mountains, sea and Robbeneiland. You don’t want the flight to end, so if you’re here, I’d recommend taking a longer one. Communication lines are open, which is a cool addition.

My experience with Cape Town Helicopters was truly amazing. From the moment we lifted off, the views were absolutely breathtaking. Seeing Cape Town from above gave me a whole new appreciation for the city — the buildings, the coastline, and the way everything comes together so beautifully from the sky. One of the most memorable moments was seeing Robben Island from above. It was powerful and humbling, adding meaning to an already unforgettable experience. Even though we did not fly over Table Mountain, having it in view from the air was still incredible and made the journey feel very special. The crew was professional, friendly, and made the entire experience feel safe and well organised. It was more than just a flight; it was a unique way to experience Cape Town from a completely different perspective, and one I will always remember ❤️
