Flights leave from the Royal Malewane airstrip and cross mountains, canyons and waterfalls, with the Blyde River canyon on the route. They are timed between the morning and afternoon game drives, so no safari time is lost. The excursion includes the Graskop Gorge glass lift, which descends 51 metres down the cliff face. A boardwalk then runs through indigenous forest, with suspension bridges and a view of Panorama Waterfall, before the return flight. This carries an additional cost and suits guests wanting a different perspective on the landscape.
