    The instructor also gave a lot of interesting information about other stuff which can be done in Cape Town and what you don’t find in the traditional travel advisor books. I can fully recommend Downhill Adventures for having a great time and fun and to learn surfing with success.

  • I want to take this opportunity to compliment you, your company but in particular two of your staff members. My granddaughter and I were treated to an absolutely fantastic and memorable occasion today (Sunday 3 June). I have often wanted to sandboard, both Gerry and Thys were the perfect hosts. These guys went out of their way to be friendly and efficient, to instruct, encourage and even help carry our boards up.

    The Skydiving was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Pierre the birthday boy thought it was exhilarating, the most wonderful thing he ever did, and made his year.  I was so scared, nearly died, but it was amazing.  Thank you very much for arranging it so excellently, and I have and will tell everyone about you.

    My name is Jeffrey Huang and I did the Full-day Surfing Adventure with Chris today. I’m just writing to say that I had an awesome time and Chris was a perfect guide. He took some really great photos and videos that I will show all my friends when I tell them to book through Downhill Adventures when they visit Cape Town!

  • Survivor Challenge Team Building

    What an adventure; cycling in a beautiful estate, being blindfolded and going through the trenches, having to carry toxic waste and then off to do some shooting. A very eventful morning with everyone well and truly united as a team from the events. Thank you Downhill Adventures for all the planning and preparing and on such short notice too. I would use your services again and again.
