This was my and my sister’s first time paragliding. Despite doing ziplining several times, we were both pretty nervous leading up to the flight. We arrived later than intended with traffic and we were able to easily communicate this and told that our instructor would still meet us at the meeting point. There we completed a waiver and paid for the insurance as indicated. We then rode up with a couple instructors and another guest up the mountain to the takeoff point. From there, the instructors will put on the backpack gear and set up the parachute. We went on a foggy and not so windy morning, so we had to wait 30mins or so for the sky to clear for takeoff. Our instructor was super friendly and communicative of how to take off and land. Once you’re in the air, enjoy! It’s only 8 minutes down to the beach. We purchased the extra 360 photos and videos that weren’t too expensive given the experience. Definitely would do it again!

This was an amazing experience I’ll never forget!!! Views are spectacular! Luis was the best! I did paragliding. Had to wait a little for ten wind to pick up, but there are cute little bars and beach restaurants that serve good food and drinks while you wait. Took 10 min to drive the hill to take off, another 10 to set up, and 10 + min flight. I promise you, it’s an experience you will never forget!

I was initially terrified to try hang gliding because I’m afraid of heights, but this experience turned out to be incredible! The pilots were extremely supportive and even prayed with me to help calm my nerves. Their encouragement and kindness made all the difference. The takeoff was scary, but once we were in the air, it was unbelievably fun and exhilarating. The views of Rio from above were stunning, making every moment worth it. I’m so glad I did it and would definitely consider trying paragliding next time. This is a must-try experience for anyone visiting Rio, even if you're afraid of heights!

We finally went hang gliding. The wind and rain delayed it several days. Our first try was on a Tuesday, but the winds were too strong, then tried two more times on Friday, but the wind was too strong again, then rain. We rescheduled for Saturday morning and got to go. It was amazing. There were 2 adults and one 14 year old. We all had different pilots, Luis, John, and Paulo. They were super amazing and would highly recommend any of them. The flight was amazing! They let us control the glider ourselves for a little, and it was super fun. If you are coming to Brasil, I would highly recommend it. Just plan early because of the weather. They make it safe and super fun. Note: Be sure to bring your passport or an image it is needed for the I insurance. We got lucky because I had images on my phone. This is definitely a MUST if going to Rio!

The service was good, and the flight fantastic, but we payed nearly 170€ for a 8 minute fly. That is way too expensive!

200 USD for an 8 minutes flight is way too much. The views were really good though and the instructor was competent

Been wanting to paraglide in Rio for many years and it did not disappoint.first off, both my friend and I are scared of heights and we're alittle apprehensive but Luiz was so so chill and calming that we both relaxed..the take off was so easy..we just walked off the ramp and was airborne. We were lucky because the weather was iffy that day, but there was an opening in the clouds so we were able to fly. Since there were quite a few clouds, it helped us stay up flying longer than usual...if you are hesitating, don't...it was a dream come true

Offered us hang gliding or paragliding to us as options but we were already set on paragliding.

He was super friendly and cheerful, plus extra confident, which gives you confidence!

You get close to the mountain and can even steer yourself for a short period of time!

It was definitely the highlight of Rio and probably the whole trip. A definite must when visiting Rio!
