    Fabio was an amazing paragliding instructor. We booked this tour last minute due to another pilot not answering us anymore, and Fabio accepted us immediately when we showed up. Highly recommend booking this paragliding tour and nothing else!

    It was really fun...

    Unique_W, Mar 2026
    It was really fun experience the people are very nice but just landing could be different for everyone my friend had a safe landing as my landing was bad we literally had when threw a tree branch and hit a gate and fell , lucky it wasn’t that bad but it was minor cuts

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    Hi Unique! We're sorry about what happened, unfortunately the landing wasn't perfect! However, everyone is fine, without any major scares! Afternoon flights are always more complicated, as that's when the wind tends to change a lot!

    Best paragliding tour ever!!!

    Great experience with a great pilot!! It was very organized and not a long wait. My instructor told me step by step was happening and made me feel really comfortable. I even planned to do it the following day. If you have no experience paragliding, this is the company for you.

    Paragliding was amazing — peaceful, thrilling, and unforgettable all at once. Dudu was a fantastic instructor who made me feel safe and confident the whole time. I’d definitely do it again!

    Paragliding Fabio and equipment

    A unique experience should only be patient because it depends on the weather being in perfect conditions and several times stops for long periods until the wind improves. Fabio and his team very professional ask about them.
