Experience the beauty of Cape Town from a whole new perspective as you soar through the skies on a helicopter ride like no other!

From the turquoise beaches along the Cape Town Riviera to Cape Town’s bustling city centre and of course the best views of the magnificent Table Mountain, this quick, 12 minute helicopter flight over the Cape peninsula will leave you in awe of South Africa’s oldest city!

Other points of interest during your Cape Town helicopter ride include the historic Victoria & Albert waterfront, the oldest working harbour in the Southern Hemisphere, and natural landmarks of Signal Hill, Lion’s Head, and the 12 Apostles mountain range overlooking the gorgeous Camp’s Bay and park of the Table Mountain complex.

As you soak in the sights during your helicopter tour over the Cape Peninsula, you will be aboard an Airbus 120 or 130. These helicopters are at the forefront of eco-friendly aviation – not only are they some of the few helicopters in the world that are certified to operate in noise-sensitive areas but their engines are also more efficient.

During the scenic flight over Cape Town, you will be equipped with BOSE aviation grade headsets, which are top of the range noise cancelling headsets meaning you will be able to enjoy the thrill of flying in a helicopter and listen to the pilot’s commentary without being distracted by the noise!

If you don’t have a lot of time to spare but still want to get to know Cape Town whilst having a real adventure, this is the perfect activity for you! Book your city hopper helicopter flight now!
