When I was 16, my family and I visited Cape Town for the second time. This time, I was looking forward to hikes and all kinds of extreme sports. When I found out about skydiving, I knew there was no way I would allow this opportunity to slip away. I was not nervous at all before the jump, since it was tandem and I knew I could trust the person to whom I was attached to, who was a professional. During the frefall, though, I felt my soul jump out of my body. A while later I felt a surge of adrenaline; it was one of the most exhilarating moments of my life. The excitement did not fade away even when my parachute opened and I was able to navigate through the sky. It is an unforgettable experience.

First off - I didn't get to jump. I contacted the team about a jump but the weather didn't go my way. This review is to tell you that the guys did everything they could to accommodate me and I can only imagine how great they take care of their clients that get to jump.

Great experience. It was already my third jump, but the view of Cape Town and Table Mountain cannot be compared to anything else.
organization on site was relaxed and problem-free.
Absolute recommendation, I would do it again anytime.

We had such a great experience, we were celebrating our wedding anniversary. The crew was very friendly and made us feel relaxed. They explained everything, and answered all our questions. Overall, it was a mind blowing adventure for us. We had so much fun.

The guys at SkyDive Cape Town are top people and the friendliest bunch you'll meet. It's a very professional and well run business with safety at its core. I jumped with Rainer, a German instructor who is super cool and an absolute hero. After giving full instruction and explaining everything I needed to do, he said "don't worry if you forget I'll just do it for you"...😂
The next 20mins consisted of us both chatting about football and the occasional digression to the surrounding scenery. Before I knew it we were dangling out of the aircraft and out the door.
Rainer even let me control the parachute on the way down and do some spirals which was pretty cool. One of the best things you'll ever do and with the coolest guys.
The best things in life are on the other side of fear 👌
Thanks guys!

Amazing experience that I'd recommend to anyone! I'm terrified of heights but the instructors put my mind at ease by talking through what would happen step-by-step. You could tell they all really enjoyed their job and wanted to make the experience fun for everyone.
The views were incredible and the option to take home a USB with photos and a video is something I'd definitely recommend taking up.
The team were responsive to emails/WhatsApp (e.g. Confirming the weather was appropriate to jump before setting off) and you can book a taxi to collect you through the booking process so it was all really seamless!
There is also a little cafe on site to hydrate and grab a cake afterwards :)

First time going skydiving and the people were incredible. They made us feel welcome from the start and helped calm any nerves. Gave us a great video and picture package so we can relive the memories. The jump had great views and an amazing experience worth doing thanks to Izak and Rainer.

Does the cost include comprehensive insurance or do you need to have dangerous activity insurance on top of standard travel insurance

Hi,
My wife wants to skydive. We will be staying at Ritz Capetown around 13-15th Dec. Wanted to know about the price, pick up and drop facility, duration of event, area covered, best time of the day, height? She will be doing it for the first time.

This is my personal experience here but if you want an accurate answer, I'd suggest you to email the company and/or call them. They were very helpful for me :) We rented a car and drove to the location but I believe that they do have a pickup - just double check. It was about an hour in all - short plane ride, the falling bit isn't very long either. That + preparation before the jump and getting the CDs etc. must've taken about an hour. It was also my first time jumping - there's a great view of the coast from up there, it was very pretty :) Goodluck to her!
