What an amazing experience! You get about 5 minutes in the air and my pilot, Rodrigo was amazing. Very patient, calm, and even let me try steering the glider which was incredible. You get great views of Rio and it’s incredibly peaceful in the air. Diana was also great at responding and keeping me informed

That was wild! You gotta do it! Soaring above the beach - it was gorgeous! It’s only scary for a second. Then it’s smooth sailing

It was an absolutely awesome experience - I can not rate it high enough.
From booking to completing the event, Rodriguez and Diana were professional.
Both communicate very well in English, and having pictures and a video included in the package really helped keep the memories.
If you want to hang glide, there are not many places as beautiful as Rio to do it.
Breath taking and a memory my wife and I will always treasure.
Thank you, Rodrigo and Diana

Fabulous experience. Would do again with this company. The pilots were friendly and professional. We felt safe with them since they were able to explain what we needed to do to be safe.

These guys are the real deal. They have 20+ years of experience, and the glide was smooth. They made the process easy and efficient from beginning to end. Definitely worth it. Nito was my guy and he did awesome. This is an easy 10/10. They use GoPros 10 & 9.
