Enjoy an exhilarating tandem paragliding flight from Signal hill or Lions head. It is by far probably one of the most exciting adventure sports in Cape Town.
No other activity would let you enjoy spectacular panoramas of the Table Mountain, the City Bowl with no windows to block your view! No matter how nervous you might feel before takeoff (or for some, even the very thought of paragliding), the experienced team will put you at ease.
Once you are in the air enjoy a birds eye view of one of the most beautiful cities in the world!
*Live commentary on board from one of our experienced paragliding pilots
*One-way shared transfer back to the take off area from the landing
*Fly with a very experienced pilot behind you, giving you a great sense of security!
*Parapax tailor-make the flight to your wishes so you’re sure to get a personalized flight and service
We always meet at the very end of Signal hill drive, once you get to the parking area you will be welcomed by our take off manager Witness, signed up and briefed on the launch. Once you’re securely clipped in, all you need to do is take a few light steps before you’re flying! With an expert pilot behind you, you will feel just great!
Tandem paragliding gives you an amazing sense of freedom. Once in the air, most people are surprised at how relaxed they feel. You’ll sit comfortably upright (like on your sofa at home). You won’t feel like you’re sinking or falling at all, since you glide, nearly horizontally, through the air at around 40 km/hr.
In optimal weather conditions you even have the chance to fly the paraglider yourself! Your instructor will place his hands above yours to show you how to steer. It really is quite simple and really, really fun! This, like the aerobatics before landing, are completely optional of course!
Excellent service! Enjoyed every moment! - Liesl Thomas
The experience was just mind blowing!!! Highly recommended this bucket list experience even for those with fears. The pilots are very experienced and give very clear instructions. Furthermore they point out the sights from the skies. Best thing I've ever done !! - Mags Roger’s

I want to give an outstanding review to the team at Parapax for an amazing experience. It was the highlight of our holiday! Right from the beginning, the staff at Parapax exuded a sense of calm and professionalism that made us feel very comfortable about the whole adventure. Just to be clear - this was definitely outside of our normal comfort zone! Our pilots, Frank and Alowise, were outstanding. They gave us just the right amount of instruction to do a great job and glided the parachutes to an expert landing. My only wish was that the trip could have been longer - alas we couldn't control the wind. I highly recommend this adventure to anyone with interest in this type of a trip. You won't be disappointed. - richard johnston
I booked the paragliding experience for my wife whilst we were in Cape Town. From start to finish it was a great service by the Parapax team who were friendly, helpful, and made my wife feel at ease for her first ever paragliding flight. Signal Hill is a beautiful place to take off from and my wife particularly enjoyed the tricks that she was shown by the instructor. A brilliant experience that she'll remember for the rest of her life! Highly recommend the Parapax team. - Dan Colquhoun
