Cape Town Helicopter Scenic Flight – 20-Minute Aerial Wonder

Experience Cape Town like never before with a breathtaking 20-minute helicopter flight along the Atlantic coastline. This scenic journey offers panoramic views of the Mother City’s most iconic landmarks — from the soaring heights of Table Mountain to the rugged cliffs of the Twelve Apostles, down to the sparkling bays that kiss the edges of the Cape Peninsula.

Check-In & Safety Briefing
Begin your adventure at the V&A Waterfront Heliport, where you'll be warmly welcomed by professional ground staff. After a brief safety orientation and check-in, take a few photos next to your sleek helicopter before boarding with your experienced pilot.

Takeoff & City Bowl Views
Feel the rush of lift-off as the helicopter smoothly rises above the harbor. Within moments, you’ll have bird’s-eye views of the Cape Town Stadium, the bustling Waterfront, and the historic City Bowl with Table Mountain rising majestically in the background.

Table Mountain & Lion’s Head
Soar past the flat-topped Table Mountain — one of the New 7 Natural Wonders of the World — and its iconic companion peaks, Lion’s Head and Signal Hill. The views are incredible in every direction, with lush greenery, dramatic cliffs, and cityscapes unfolding beneath you.

Atlantic Coast & Camps Bay
Follow the famous Atlantic Seaboard, flying above the glamorous suburbs of Clifton and Camps Bay. Marvel at the turquoise waters, soft beaches, and million-dollar homes dotting the coastline. Your pilot might curve slightly inland to give you glimpses of the Twelve Apostles Mountain Range – a rugged spectacle rising steeply from the sea.

Return via Sea Point & Mouille Point
As the flight loops back, glide over Sea Point Promenade and the iconic lighthouse at Mouille Point. Catch your final views of Robben Island in the distance, and the bustling harbor below as you prepare for a gentle landing back at the heliport.

Touch Down & Memories
After a smooth return to base, take a few more photos, collect your optional souvenir video (if arranged), and toast to an unforgettable experience high above Cape Town.
