Introduction
Para-Taxi is a high end, quality paragliding flight centre with emphasis on safety and maximum Fun and Enjoyment. Take it from us that there aren’t better ways to experience the city's spectacular sights than from the air, and Para Taxi will set you up with the amazing experience of an adrenaline-filled free-flight over Cape Town.
We're confident when we say that a paragliding trip with Para Taxi will offer one of the most exhilarating and memorable experiences you can have in the Mother City, as you glide effortlessly through the air with a qualified tandem paragliding pilot.
Para-Tax puts a huge amount of effort into promoting the sport, respecting the environment and making flight possible for everyone, also for the disabled and physically challenged. Para-Taxi adheres to SAHPA (South African Hang and Paragliding Association) standards and only uses internationally certified equipment.
Tandem flights involve you being securely strapped into a comfortable flying harness positioned in front of the pilot. The paraglider is spread out on the ground on a gentle slope at altitude and facing into the wind. The pilot is then connected to the paraglide and you with a secure harness and the paraglide is pulled gently into the wind, causing the canopy to inflate.
As a paraglide can fly very slowly it is easy to launch so all you and the pilot need to do during the launch is run briefly into the wind and float gently up into the air. This makes paragliding accessible to anyone, including unfit or disabled passengers. Depending on the conditions the average standard tandem flight will last between 15 - 25 minutes. Landings are similarly as easy except in reverse order.
There are various launch sites around the city, including two on Lion's Head and one on Signal Hill, from where you'll be able to fly high above the bustling Atlantic Seaboard, over the spectacular white beaches of Clifton and Camps Bay, and gaze down at the deep blue ocean stretching out beneath your feet.
We also offer amazing in flight pictures, which are taken by the pilot with a special fish eye lens camera during the flight
