“We chose this excursion on our last day in Cape Town to culminate 4 days of adventures. This was absolutely the best choice to see the city and surrounding area from a bird’s eye view. The entire experience from booking to hotel pickup to flight was terrific. Our pilot, Dovonan, was very skilled with the flying as well as descriptions of what we were seeing.”
