The view from the sky is uncomparable, imagine having the coast and the amazing Table Mountain right under your feet! Amazing and exclusive panoramas of Cape Town, its Beaches, the Ocean, Signal Hill and Lion's Head will be available for you.

What an amazing experience. Flying above Cape Town gives you a wonderful view and Hi 5 really gave us the best experience we could get. It was our first flight and we felt totally safe and welcomed. We had a lot of fun before, during and after the flight. All around we can highly recommend Hi 5 for paragliding :)
