I had such an amazing time. The guide/pilot (Louiz) offered both Hang gliding and Paragliding and I could chose depending on the weather conditions. You get super close to the mountains and can even steer a bit yourself. I would love to do it again, absolute highlight of my trip. There is also the possibility to get a 360 degree camera which make awesome Videos! Loved it!!!

Should you want to add a bit of adventure to your Rio de Janeiro travel experience - book this Paragliding/Hang gliding tour! Btw, I would full heartedly recommend Luiz Ireno, the pilot. He has decades of piloting experience and had made my Paragliding flight very smooth and very immersive one. You will absolutely enjoy the flight. This will be something you'll talk/remember about for years, for sure!

This is a MUST DO. We really wanted to do Hang Gliding, but due to wind conditions we were suggested to try paragliding instead. Let me just say that everything happens for a reason because it was SO INCREDIBLE. Paragliding is definitely underrated and is such an incredible experience. All of the staff were extremely friendly and helpful as well.

Great experience! Daniel was so friendly and professional and put me at ease. The video from the camera that he held was downloaded to my IPhone and was beautiful and captured the whole experience. Highly recommend!
