Fly early in the morning on the beaches of the Algarve, watch the sunrise or in the late afternoon and watch the sunset while flying over the sea. They are unforgettable moments. The view of Vilamoura Marina, golf courses and sometimes we receive a visit from dolphins. The paratrike has autonomy of 4 hours of flight which allows to make shorter or longer rides. We have the possibility to fly at different altitudes and make the tour along the coast with distances of about 10km, in contrast to the paraglider, which is always in the same place and at the same altitude.

Don’t skip this experience! - Valdemar created an amazing experience for us. He is so knowledgeable and passionate about flying. The videos made for us were such an awesome addition. Flying was so much fun, so smooth and Valdemar was happy to answer every question we had. The views of the algarve, the coast, etc were incredible. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to try something new and out of the ordinary; you wont regret it.

Amazing flight in the stunning Algarve on a glorious day that we will remember forever - This was a surprise for our son (and his mum) who was celebrating his 21st birthday on October 10th and what a brilliant day it was. The flight was well organised, felt safe at all times and to be flying above the stunning coastline and the beautiful beach on a glorious day in the Algarve is a memory we will never forget. To cap it all a top quality video (you select the music) and photos are included, we will treasure this trip forever. Our son was on his flight at the exact time he was born 21 years ago and Valdemar even flashed the exact time of birth up on his video - soaring over the beach at this point, what a truly special memory to mark the occasion. Thanks Valdemar for an unforgettable day, it has been the highlight of our lives as a family !

Paratriking - Signing up was unique. The start time is not posted because it’s entirely dependent on the wind and weather. It may be anytime that day. Also, we were given GPS coordinates to meet the guide at a random field. I guess it’s not always at the same place?? You can imagine how unhappy that made our Uber driver to drop us in a field, but nonetheless, we had fun and this adventure was something very different.

Awful communication, great experience - After sending several messages during the day in the evening before our voucher we were given a time slot of 7:30 am. We woke early only to find that a late email had been sent to say that this had been cancelled and a new time would be given. This was our last day of holiday and family visits, shopping, restaurants and the Paratrike had to be fitted in. After several attempts to contact Paratrike and now a stressful morning we eventually got a slot given to us for 6.30pm. Weather was used as an excuse, but there was not a leaf moving on the trees and the skies were clear. We then had to push for the location. Communication is awful. However if you can get past this the actual experience was great and my daughter loved it.
