Phenomenal trip! Ari, the pilot, spotted a great white shark from the air as we were flying over Muizenberg. Incredible to see. Then we were off to a wine farm for lunch. Vergelegen... Beautiful setting with trees planted in the 1700. Great food too! After lunch, we flew over the mountains and then back to Cape Town Helicopters. Wow! It was fantastic! I can recommend everyone to do it - what a way to see Cape Town. Ari the pilot is very knowledgeable and professional.

Note that not all aircraft has this system available so please requests this on check in.
