Do it! - Great ride and a good route around cape town to see it all. However you need some luck in what seat you get in the helicopter to get the best photoviews

Unforgettable Excursion! - This was bought as a wedding gift for us to enjoy on our honeymoon and what an unforgettable excursion it was! On route to walking from the V&A a lovely person from Cape Town Helicopters passed us on a Golf Buggy and gave us a lift the rest of the way which was quite handy as it was a little further than we thought and through a building site. On arrival, we had a friendly greeting and offered complimentary tea and coffee. We were swiftly taken to our helicopter, met the captain and took off for our 20 minute flight. We were super lucky with the weather, got some fantastic views and great commentary. A definite must when visiting Cape Town!

A truly great flight experience! - The tour with the helicopter was a true experience that everyone visiting Cape Town should do!! Wow! My pilot was a very skilled one named Matt, and he is already a pilot for 9 years. Great to see al the landmarks, and also get explanatory talks with them from my pilot. The flight took about 25 minutes, and was very enjoyable and calm. The ground staff was also very helpful with taking pictures of me with the aircraft and guiding me to and from the aircraft before and after the flight!

Great Experience - despite a wrinkle in booking. - Cape Town Helicopters provided a great experience and this is a fantastic way to see Cape Town. I would highly recommend this experience. I did have trouble with booking through Viator (my booking didn't go through despite confirmation and receipt) - but Cape Town Helicopters did everything they could to make it right.

Great Experience, but I would book through a different platform. - The actual experience was great, and the company Cape Town Helicopters was extremely professional despite them having no reservation from Viator. Viator was of little to no help in this matter - but Cape Town Helicopters did everything they could to make it right. I would 100% book with this company - just not through Viator.

Not what I paid for - I booked this tour via Viator as a surprise for my wife. Whilst the trip was fine we did not get what we paid for. The description says that the tour involves a "circle round Table Mountain" - instead we flew straight down the coast and straight back the same way. Some nice views but not what was advertised... yet the helicopter in front of us did the full circle! I complained to Viator and requested a partial refund but neither they or Cape Town Helicopters did the decent thing! There are plenty of other tour operators in the area to choose from
