Cape Town Ziplining – Half Day

Zipper Cape Town’s number one adventure begins now! 

Located in Holtantos Holland Nature Reserve. 

Operators have partnered with Nature Corner to take you into a previously inaccessible primitive part of this amazing World Heritage site. 

It’s only one hour from Cape Town, providing guided adventures for nature lovers between the ages of 5 and 75. 

Lonely Planet recently ranked the trip to the Elgin Valley near Grubb and the rugged Hortentos Mountains at the Cape Town Nature Reserve in the Netherlands as the second most popular new travel experience in the world in 2015. 

This tour is the only African scenic spot on the list! 

Lonely Planet describes it as “vertiginous fun” and “exciting aerial perspective”.

Cape Town Paragliding (Tandem).

Flying in tandem for 20 minutes requires you to be securely strapped into a comfortable flight harness in front of the pilot.

The paraglider is spread out on the ground, high up on a gentle slope, facing the wind.

The pilot then attaches the paraglider to himself with a safety harness, and the paraglider is gently pulled into the wind, causing the canopy to inflate.

Launching is easy because a paraglider can fly very slowly, so all you and the pilot need to do during the launch is fly briefly into the wind and then float gently into the air.

This allows anyone to use a paraglider, including passengers who are unhealthy or disabled.

The average time for a two-person flight will be between 15 and 25 minutes, depending on conditions.

Landing is just as easy but in reverse order.

Remember, paragliding depends on the weather, which requires flexibility in both location and time of flight.

We will ensure that the best conditions for your enjoyment and safety are identified.

Please note that the risks associated with flying are inevitable and we will only fly if judged to be safe.

If you are insured for paragliding as an activity, please consult your health insurance.

Tandem Skydiving

Let your tandem skydiving experience further stimulate your adrenaline.

Skydiving instructors will prepare you for a truly memorable experience and help you get your flying gear, so no experience is required! Video footage is an optional extra, but it definitely captures the experience and lets you relive the action and emotion of the jump.

On the way up, the view was breathtaking. To the south, the mother city is sandwiched between the towering Table Mountain and the bustling Table Bay seaport. Further south, on the other side of the mountains, there are spectacular views of the Firth of Forth, Hout Sound, and the South Peninsula as far as the Cape. Heading west, you’ll see Robben Island — Cape Town’s own Version of Alcatraz — the Atlantic Ocean breaking off the beautiful Cape Sea coast, as famous for its icy water temperatures as it is for mouth-watering crayfish. To the north is the Langebaan Lagoon, a great place for kite surfing and windsurfing.

With the help of an experienced pilot, you will take off from a plane at 10,000 feet and free fall for 25-30 seconds at 200 kilometers per hour. Your parachute will deploy and you’ll experience a 4-5 minute parachute drop that will give you the most impressive aerial views of Cape Town, Table Mountain, and Robben Island.

Equipment and your instructor are included, and transportation can be arranged at an affordable cost. All you need to carry are the essentials to protect yourself from South Africa’s harsh weather, and make sure you wear comfortable clothes and tight shoes.

One option, but not always available, is to have your tandem jumps filmed.
