Jan my pilot knew I was nervous and scared of heights prior to our flight, he made me feel relaxed and assured me that once in the air it would be Amazing.
I can honestly say it was one of the best experiences of my life , flying like a bird over Cape Town. The views were stunning and this is a must do when in SA. Thank you Jan for a truly wonderful time. By the way the kids loved it too but that was obvious as they were not scared like me :-). The video I will treasure forever .

I got my boyfriend a paragliding flight as a Christmas gift. The entire booking process was so easy and personal with Fleur and Jan as direct, very helpful contact persons you can reach at all times and ask whatever you want to know. The flight from Signal Hill (we did it both) was amazing. We felt absolutely safe and comfortable as Jan took great care of us. He explained all the steps and chatted humorously so that we weren't afraid at all. Even after the flight, he helped us in getting an uber and made sure that we got home safe. All in all, an amazing experience with lovely people. Thank you very much, Jan and Fleur, for making it so special. Highly recommended to everyone being interested in a tandem paragliding flight.

A long awaited check to the bucket list! Go Paragliding offers a safe and secure flight experience, weather conditions has a huge impact to flight time and schedules, so do try to be as flexible as possible. This also serves as an extreme cautionary measure to ensure the safety of all persons during the flight .
Thank you so much. It was definitely worth the wait!

Thank you Jan and the Go Paragliding Team. What an unbelievable experience. Just want to make a special mention to our Pilot Jan, he did everything to make sure we got our flight in even though we were against the odds with our timing and due to the weather. Made my day and definitely a memory I will never forget. All the best and see you soon.

It was really fantastic to do! We had not realized beforehand that the weather was so decisive. In addition to visibility, the wind must be good, the direction and not too strong. But with Jan you can be sure that he takes it seriously and wants you to have a fantastic experience. He is easy to reach via WhatsApp and can coordinate well. So the tip is to ensure that you are flexible in terms of day and time to increase your chance that it will continue. You will receive videos and photos of your adventure directly on the ground!

A must-do in Capetown, un unforgettable experience. Both my wife and I made a flight with Jan, he is a very nice guy who gives you a safe feeling before the flight. During the flight he explains some hotspots in Capetown but besides all he is a very nice person who is giving a clear safety briefing. This gives a feeling of confidence! It was a very nice day with very good flight weather, thank you Jan for this exiting experience! Regards Ellen and Richard

What an amazing experience I had with GO Paragliding. Jan was just amazing. He is really so calm and really put me at ease. I thought it was going to be scary but not at all. Jan made sure that I was comfortable and at ease at all times. Is definitely recommended them. Thank you for a great experience. Can't wait to fly with you again. Jodie

The staff are friendly and professional. The takeoff is just a short run and you are Up. The views are unmatched. If you are doubting because you are scared , don't be. Looks more scary than it actually is. Once you are flying over the city , you will be glad you took that step.

Booking with Jan was such a good move. I’m afraid of heights but he made me feel safe at all time. He gave us proper instructions prior and during the flight. He’s a professional who clearly takes his job seriously, he is in control, all the time! Thank you so much, Harry

Such a cool expierence! So glad I did it. It was a beautiful way to see Cape Town and they even did tricks with me in the air. It was so fun! I would highly recommend, the sights from signal hill are also beautiful! At first I was a bit nervous but there’s nothing to be scared of.
