1. 他們忘記了預訂的行程！！！！！
詳情：這是我的蜜月之旅，我計劃在整個旅行結束時體驗串聯滑翔傘飛行。 不幸的是，下了一場大雨，所以我需要重新安排到後天，這也是我最後一次機會，因為那天中午有航班。 工作人員同意重新安排。 最後，我看到集合點沒有人，工作人員說上午9點沒有導遊，上午10點對你來說可以嗎？ 什麼???? 如果上午9點不行，你為什麼在上午9點做出承諾？ 你浪費我的時間，浪費我的錢去那裡！
1. 糟糕的客戶服務！！！！！
詳情：這顯然是Icarus的錯，但他們無論在電話中或是我追回退款的電郵中連一句抱歉都沒有說！！！
這麼簡單的承擔責任歉意也沒有

Provide a more up to date/accurate planning tool to book a flight. I booked twice through Manawa and selected the available times. These bookings got confirmed and shortly afterwards cancelled twice due to the availability.
Icarus wasn't really offering suitable solutions to reschedule the booking. The communication was quite blunt through sms. I was really looking forward to experience the paragliding. But got really disappointed with the way Icarus handled my booking.
Next time when I visit Cape Town I hope to have a better experience with a different company.

We were really lucky to find Icarus paragliding through a recommendation from our accommodation. We were quite nervous about which operator to use as had heard some stories of safety risks from other providers. The Icarus team were absolutely wonderful. We arrived to signal hill and met the team, were introduced to those facilitating the tandem and instantly felt we were in safe hands! These guys were hugely experienced and took time to explain the steps needed to ensure a safe flight. We had an absolutely amazing experience and enjoyed every minute! Would not hesitate to recommend to those looking for some adventure! Thanks to the Icarus team.

What a super experience! I knew the the view was going to be absolutely breathtaking, but I still hesitated.... Jumping from a mountain - and also allowing your daughter to do so - isn't something one does daily!! But the Icarius team was super pro, from the start to the end. From the meet-up point, to the technical and security explanation, to the super smooth take off which was a gentle walk (not even a run), to the super smooth flight with a fun yet super experienced pilot who stayed much longer than advertised, and finally the faultless landing, literally 2 metres away from my daughter. I recommend without any hesitation.

I have had the great pleasure of flying with Jacques, John, and Carlos from Icarus. I keep on going back for more. There are many operators in Cape Town, but Icarus will always be my first choice. The pilots know their stuff and have been flying for decades, and they're cool dudes too. It's an absolute must-do!

Hello, do you also have female instructors for women who prefer to be instructed by a woman?

Hi. What is the minimum age for the tandem paraglide? I’d like to book for my husband and 2 sons. My eldest son is 18, but my youngest is only 15. Would my 15 year old be able to take part?

We are flying with wind and weather so it is very difficult to promise a half-hour trip. We do go out to fly different sites to try and improve the flying time like for instance ee will go to Hermanus when the winds are better there and there we can almost guarantee that
