Great Ending to a Great Trip
This was my first paragliding experience, and it probably won’t be my last. My time here in Cape Town has been amazing, and this experience provided a great ending to it just before heading to the airport. Jacques and Jason are total pros. They made the experience very enjoyable and also safe. I would definitely fly with Icarus again.

Great experience
Originally date wasn't available due to weather and neither was 2nd date. Comms from the team was exceptional and we finally managed to get the trip done just hours before my flight back to the UK. The pilot was superb (apologies i cant remember his name), talked me through everything at the start and then made the flight memorable! A great ending to mh stay in Capetown!
