I had my first flight with Icarus in 2012! Many more followed and all my friends and clients flew with the experienced team of Icarus paragliding.You put your life in the hands of a stranger- so choose wisely. Those guys have many years flying experiences.Highly recommend.

Had the most amazing experience! I will never forget the moment we took off and I have all the photos to look back on! Jacques was professional and by far the the best experience in Cape Town.

I completed my first ever tandem paraglide today off Signal Hill. John was professional and ensured my flight was safe but also so much fun! The view is simply incredible! Its probably one of the most accessible activities you can do even if youre afraid of heights.Cape Town is one of the most spectacular places in the world to paraglide. Signal Hill, is the site which is most commonly flown from because of its location and the stunning views of Table Mountain, Robben Island, the Waterfront and the Cape Town area.

Icarus is the best! Paragliding is definitely something you need to tick off of your bucket list. Paragliding is something I never thought I would be brave enough to do but Jacque made me feel so safe! Its truely exhilarating.

What an experience paragliding with Icarus. Professional guides and team that have years of experience. A must when in Cape Town on a clear day, fly over the city and be thrilled and invigorated. Booking is essential to guarantee your flight. X

What a great experience! The paragliding from Signal hill to the coast is 10-15 mins and may be short in time and also in altitude difference but it is over the city and it gives breath-taking view! It is generally safe if there is no strong coast wind. It costs me 140 USD as I didnt book in advance and walked in but it definitely worths the experience. The cost includes a SD card with pictures and videos taken during the flight!

Flying with Jacques took my breath away. I screamed like girl but I loved every minute of it. He knows what he is doing and he knows how to show a passenger a good time.

These guys were top notch in service and safety. My wife and I took the leap and it was well worth it. It was a short ride due to weather conditions, but you’d have to take that up with Mother Nature. Book afternoons for longer flight times (not morning as we did) or simply use their service in Hermanus. We noticed paragliders up there FOREVER when later driving through Hermanus 🤦🏻‍♂️Next time 🙂In sum, great activity in Cape Town, you won’t regret it. And if you’re afraid of heights like I, don’t fret, it’s a gentle take off, not a leap off a precipitous drop. Go for it!!
