Unforgettable Moments Flying Over Rio de Janeiro - Had the most amazing hang gliding experience in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil! The owner, instructor, and all the staff were incredibly kind and professional. My instructor kept me calm and confident the whole time while we were flying together, which made the experience even more enjoyable. It was truly the best adventure and something I will never forget. A once-in-a-lifetime memory in Rio — highly recommended! 🪂🇧🇷💙

Bucket List ... Postponed. - I HIGHLY Recommend Renaldo & Mariana!!! Superb Communicators and Very Professional! I booked a Bucket List of Mine… To go Hang Gliding in Rio de Janeiro over Sao Conrado Beach! I was so VERY EXCITED!!! Took Uber early, waited awhile till the winds shifted, arrived at the “jump off zone”, suited up, THEN… unfortunately the winds really picked up, I waited a few hours but alas, did not get to experience Hang Gliding, YET! Just too windy 😞! Next time I am in Rio I will DEFINATELY contact them again to Fly with Renaldo!

Definitely something I would recommend many one visiting Rio should try - This was the best experience I had staying in Rio. The view I saw from up there in the sky soaring over the city was amazing. Was a little nervous at first but ot all went away once I jumped off the ramp.

The best experience - The best thing I could have done with my group of friends, everything was super professional, fun and super interactive, they let you control the delta wing, the super insteuctors, from start to finish, 100% recommended

Amazing Hang Gliding Experience! - This was an incredible, once-in-a-lifetime experience! My friend and I absolutely loved it. My friend was a little nervous at first, but our pilot made everything feel safe, fun, and surprisingly easy. He spoke excellent English, which I really appreciated because it helped me understand everything clearly during something so new and exciting. The views were so amazing, the takeoff and landing were smooth, and the whole experience felt way less scary than we had expected. I’m so glad we did this — highly recommend!

Good company but did not get a good guide - We were 3 friends and two of my friends really loved it and main reason was that they had an amazing tandem guide. My guide was not great and Infact he made me very conscious and uncomfortable so the overall experience was tarnished. I think the guide does make a difference in these experiences.
