Poor helicopter experience
Nov 2023 • Friends
When you spend this much money you expect to have a good experience. Unfortunately, I was placed on the right hand side of the helicopter and didn’t have much of a view and absolutely no a view of Table Mountain. When I asked the pilot if he could let the people on the right hand side have a view of Table Mountain, he said yes but then didn’t bother. Very disappointing flight. The pilot was called Julian and he was very much like a robot didn’t really listen to his passengers request. We were also put in a group of six into one helicopter so we were packed in like sardines, when others in the group I was traveling with went up in fours threes and twos. Why did we have to be in a six? We paid the same money but definitely didn’t get the same experience. Not worth the money! Treated poorly. When I explained how I felt to the staff they just said oh well!!

Only a 15min trip but what a spectacular experience. The magnificence of the City and it’s environment can be really appreciated on a helicopter ride.
Very reasonable price and excellent service from NAC. Loved it.

Professional and friendly encounter.
Jun 2023 • Solo
The NAC team were very accommodating, it was a windy day and they indulged me to wait out the weather for the helicopter tour experience. The whole experience was VIP from the hotel pick up, reception at the office, golf cart drive to the heliport and experience with the pilot.

I recommend them a 100 times over!

Being a solo traveler it was great to have the ground staff meet me on my return and offer to take my photos on my phone.

What an amazing way to spend 12 minutes! The most spectacular views and the best hospitality. From the smiling office staff who were fab to the pre and post flight wines, this was truly a wonderful experience. We were supposed to do the flight the day before but the rain had set it. We were able to change the flight with the wonderful staff to the next day with no issues at all.

Can’t wipe the smile off my face 😁

Beautiful views and an experience for sure
Apr 2023 • Couples
Beautiful views of the coast on this quick 15/20 minute ride. I wouldn’t say it’s a must do (personal opinion) I enjoyed the hot air balloon more but it’s definitley an experience and the views are amazing. For me even with the headphones on I had a terrible headache afterwards due to the noise but I wouldn’t rule out doing another in the future. The staff at NAC though were amazing and our pilot was polite and whitty which was nice

Hi Lolipop177 Thank you for your review! Yes, helicopters are in fact quite noisy as compared to a hot air balloon. We are looking at improving our headsets to noise canceling to further improve client satisfaction and make the guided tour even more audible. Everyone here is very thankful for your compliments, we strive to do just that! We hope your stay in the mother city was an unforgettable one! Kind Regards NAC Helicopters Cape Town

Professional and welcoming from start to finish: awesome, friendly ground staff and a fantastic pilot, Anthony, who not only entertained my child’s curiosity of the helicopter, but also gave us a great aerial tour. Thanks NAC, what a great start to the New Year!

Spectacular way to see the Mother City! Opted for the 2 oceans trip for my wife’s birthday and wasn’t disappointed. Excellent views and commentary throughout the trip. An expensive treat but worth it!

Amazing flight over Cape Town and surroundings
Aug 2022
We did a flight with Nac helicopters on 28th of august. It was just spectacular and a must do thing in Cape Town. You see the whole area from a different perspective, which is fantastic. What a beautiful city! Our flight was great and so was our pilot, everything was smooth and perfect. I would do it all again in a sec.

Thanks NAC!
