Once in a lifetime hang gliding experience with a great view.

Published on Jan, 2025

I picked a great day. I waited till a sunny afternoon about 1pm to book with no rain and thunderstorms and light winds. Just beautiful. Great to work with. Very safe and safety checks and re checks of equipment were constantly being done. My pilot rehearsed launched procedures till I had it down. You load up at the base after paperwork then drive up with your glider. You don’t do a thing except stand there and let your pilot place your harness on. It was so beautiful and peaceful. Even let me try to fly a bit. Landing was un rehearsed and all you Sonia stand up when told and you just land in your feet. There is a safety officer on the runway for bystanders clearance and he also knows when you launch. Stay afterwards for a snack and drink at the restaurant while your vids are downloaded. Very affordable $200R or about $36 USD. Great quality too.

Last Minute “let’s jump off a cliff”

Published on Dec, 2024

Was a great time. Originally was hoping to go hang gliding but unfortunately I’m a bit too large (6’3” 220lbs) for the conditions that day. Paragliding was still a great time and I would highly recommend this crew to take you up on your trip. My pilot spoke fluent English and was able to talk me (a pilot) through all of characteristics of flight, which was super cool.

One more thing off the bucket list!

Published on Dec, 2024

This was a great experience. Very helpful and knowledgeable pilot - Rodrigo. He explained everything perfectly and was very patient. He speaks English well and was able to put this old man’s mind at ease about jumping off a cliff hanging on to a kite. Definitely recommend.

Amazing experience

Published on Oct, 2024

We booked 2 flights (for me and my son). Rodrigo and his colleagues took very good care. And last but not least; the experience was amazing!
