Cape Town 48-Minute Cape Peninsula Helicopter Tour

capetown 4

A 45–48-minute shared helicopter from the V&A to Cape Point and the Cape of Good Hope, returning via False Bay. Complimentary harbour cruise.

About 45–48 minutes in the air, from Cape Town Helicopters at the V&A Waterfront. Shared flight. The Full Peninsula takes the Atlantic coast, then Cape Point and the Cape of Good Hope, then False Bay home — Constantia from the air on the return. Penguins at Boulders Beach are a maybe, not a promise. You do not land at the lighthouse. Complimentary harbour cruise after the flight. This is not the 25-minute Two Oceans turn before the point. Check in 30 minutes before. The operator flies the route, not the clock.

FAQ

Yes. Weather on the peninsula can cancel a slot, and shared seats sell. Book ahead. Check in at the V&A helipad 30 minutes before departure. The operator flies the route, not the clock — timing varies with weather. Live dates are shown when you book.

There is no minimum age. A child over 2 needs their own seat. Infants sit on an adult's lap. Most flights need a minimum of two guests; the City Hopper can take a solo traveller on a shared flight when a seat is open. Check the tour page, or email hello@flyovertheworld.com.

Cancellation follows the policy shown when you book — currently free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure. No-shows and changes inside 24 hours are charged in full. If the operator cancels for weather, you are rebooked or refunded as shown when you book.

Everyone is seated for weight and balance; you do not choose a seat. Helicopters have per-seat and average limits; an upgrade surcharge can apply. Provide accurate dressed weights when you book, or email hello@flyovertheworld.com. No handbags in the cabin.

Your safety comes first, and we always aim for a pleasant experience. If weather conditions prevent the flight, we will contact you immediately to reschedule at no extra cost or offer a full refund.
