Tandem Skydiving is one of the most thrilling experiences in the world. Find out why Tandem Skydiving is hailed as the ultimate adrenaline sport. Jumping out of a plane at 10 000 feet, and free falling for 25–30 seconds at 200km per hour will absolutely blow you away! This much adrenaline should be illegal! This is combined with one of the most stunning aerial views of Cape Town, Table Mountain and Robben Island on a 4-5 minute parachute ride back to earth. No experience is needed the only criteria that must be adhered to is that jumpers must weigh under 105 kg. A personalised certificate and optional video will serve as a lasting memory of a unique experience. Downhill Adventures knows its mountain biking and knows that Cape Town provides the perfect setting for this sport. Downhill Adventures offers a biking adventure for all levels, from the casual rider to the off road enthusiast. Our company has some of the top riders in Cape Town as our guides and whose job it is to highlight the best areas in the cape.For those of you who enjoy off-road mountain biking, we can also take you on the world class trails of Table Mountain and Tokai Forest as an optional extra. Sandboarding is an addictive new adrenaline sport that is sweeping the globe. Actually Sandboarding is not that new, ancient really, people have been playing on the dunes since the pyramids were being built. However, it is nothing compared to what it is today with companies like Downhill Adventures leading the way. We run Snowboarding camps to Tiffindell Ski Resort, South Africa’s only legitimate ski resort, located on the southern border of Lesotho. Through the months of June, July, and August there is guaranteed snow with the help of snowmaking machines. The resort is the ideal place for learning to snowboard. For South Africans Snowboarding is the best option to get into as it is easier to learn and more fun within a shorter time frame. An early morning drive out to Gansbaai, a quaint fishing village that is now known as "The Great White Capital of the World".Our operator has been running these shark excursions for 6 years. The skipper has had many years experience with the Great White, thus ensuring a 96% sighting rate. He is passionate about the Great White and will leave you with a wealth of knowledge about this incredible animal and will demystify the beast!Non-divers can also enjoy viewing from the boat as this can at times be more spectacular than the sightings from the cage. Snorkeling in the 6 man stainless steel cage is another option if you are not a qualified diver. Surfing, that elusive sport reserved only for those lucky few - Not so! Downhill Adventures gets those wannabe surfers off the beach and onto a board. Downhill Adventures teaches absolute beginners the basics of surfing: paddling out, reading the wave, catching a wave and how to control your body weight to stand-up. The boards we use are Mini Mals (Long boards); these boards are light, stable, and ideal for learning to surf. Our Kayak operation is based in Mouille Point, Cape Town – a dedicated sea kayaking outfit specializing in offering the best guided sea kayaking trips along the coast of the Cape Peninsula. We started the first sea kayaking operation in South Africa in 1995 and have maintained their position as leaders in this field. By far the most exciting thing on 4 wheels, Quad Biking is a rush like no other. Whether you’re speeding through the obstacle course on the 6 speed “Blaster”, or taking it easy on one of the mellow courses with a manual “Breezer”, Quadding will knock your socks off! The trails twist and wind through sand and bush, offering climbs, descents, technical sections and flat out straights. Reaching speeds of up to 80 km per hour, find out what your machines got or take it easy and enjoy the awesome scenery. For the hardened Adrenaline Junkies we offer a river crossing! Experience the highest commercial abseil in the country..a truly humbling outdoor adventure experience

Day 1 A Downhill Adventures representative will pick you up from the airport or hotel and give you a full briefing of the adventures for the week ahead. Clients will then go up Table Mountain by Cable Car and get a general orientation of the entire Cape Peninsula and Cape Town. The first adventure starts with the world’s longest commercial abseil, 112m off the side of Table Mountain. Return to Hotel and dinner at own expense at a traditional African restaurant.

Day 2 After breakfast, we drive up the West Coast along the Atlantic Ocean to the Tandem Skydive location. After a full briefing and training session, the jumpmaster will fit you out and take you up to 10 000ft in a light aircraft. Apart from enjoying an incredible view, the 30-second free fall will leave you breathless. We return back to the V&A Waterfront for lunch (at own expense). This is followed by a leisurely Sea Kayak to watch the spectacular sunset at the end of the day.

 We run Snowboarding camps to Tiffindell Ski Resort, South Africa’s only legitimate ski resort, located on the southern border of Lesotho.
Downhill Adventures also provides corporate and incwentives tours packages, great for team building workshops or just to let off some steam while ripping through the african bush on your quad bike or hanging off the wall on Chapma's Peak Drive. There is truly nothing like it !
A Camp with DOWNHILL ADVENTURES would guarantee your riding ability and give you the ultimate mountain experience. Departures are from Cape Town and transportation is supplied to the resort. Snowboards, boots and bindings are included and accompanying you would be one of the top Boardriders in the country, ensuring you get the full experience of Snowboard Culture.

Day 3 After breakfast we head off to one of the spectacular beaches around the Cape and attend a full day with the Downhill Adventures’ Surf School. A lesson on the beach with 2 to 3 sessions in the water will get you up and riding waves by the end of the day.

Day 4 Early start to the day with a drive out to Gansbay – the most researched place for Great White Shark activity. We spend most of the day on board a boat observing Great White Sharks, with the option to view them underwater in a cage. On return to Cape Town we stop off at some of Cape Town’s famous wine areas.

Day 5 A well deserved rest day to explore downtown Cape Town or to do some shopping

Day 6 After breakfast we head up the West Coast to the magnificent Atlantis sand dunes where our expert instructor will teach you how to Sandboard – very much like Snowboarding, but with out the cold! After lunch we exchange the natural pull of gravity for a motorized four-wheeler and head off on an exciting trail through the bush with a powerful Quad Bike

Day 7 On the final day we reach the bottom tip of Africa: Cape Point Nature Reserve. We take a leisurely Mountain Biking ride through the reserve with the possibility of seeing antelope, baboons and ostrich, ending up at the point where the Atlantic Ocean and Indian Ocean meet. We end the day and the tour off at an excellent Cape Town Restaurant and a night out on the Town.

 Jumping out of a plane at 10 000 feet, and free falling for 25 – 30 seconds at 200km per hour will absolutely blow you away!

The above itinerary is the Downhill Adventures standard itinerary for the Cape Great 8.

Please note that the above adventures are affected by different weather conditions: e.g. high winds may effect Abseiling, high swell may effect Shark Cage Diving. In the event of this we would replace the particular adventure affected with one that is not affected by these conditions, thus allowing the effected adventure to be done on another day in the itinerary.

Adventures are therefore subject to changes on the itinerary days.

But due to the diverse nature of the various adventures, a weeks widow of opportunity will allow for all adventures to be run.
