If in doubt DO IT!! - We had the most wonderful experience with Augusto and Octavio, we were scared but they made us feel at ease and everything ran so smoothly from the drive to the safety briefing, waiting a short period for the optimum wind etc. You get a fantastic view of the sites of Rio, an unbelievable view you wouldn’t otherwise see, and even get to steer yourself. We got our 360 videos straight after the flight, great touch everything was included. Amazing!! Thank you for making our Xmas, Feliz Natal xx

Awesome first paragliding experience with views of Rio! - Awesome experience. Safe and great fun with a superb view of Rio all the way to Corcovado and Pão de Açúcar (sugarloaf mountain). Enjoyed Augusto’s friendly and skillful instruction and great service.

Fantastic paragliding experience - I had a fantastic paragliding experience with Augusto at Bom Voo. I was scared, but he explained what I had to do clearly, made me feel safe, and gave me motivation to take the leap! Everything was smooth and easy. And very fun. The view is beautiful, and the feeling of floating in the sky is exhilarating. They give you a full video of the jump as part of the experience. Great value. Definitely do it and do it with Bom Voo. I had seen a Tiktok that recommended them, and I'm glad I listened.

Incredible team, wonderful experience - An incredible team and a wonderful experience. Augusto, Tavinho and their team are brilliant professionals and I don’t think we could have flown with anyone else. I was really nervous about paragliding - my first time doing anything like this - but their calm, clear, friendly communication settled my nerves and gave me the most amazing experience. These guys are the best and most experienced - don’t go with anyone else. We saw other pilots take risks with their clients’ safety, including flying in conditions that Augusto and Tavinho advised us were not worth the risk. They work with pilots with decades of experience, including some of Brazil’s pre-eminent paragliders - we couldn’t believe our luck. There’s no-one better to take you for your first paraglide - we felt so safe the whole time, and had a day we’ll never forget. Without question, if you’re considering this experience, do it with Bom Voo.

ABSOLUTELY TOP - This is simply an incredible and unique experience. Not only because of the amazing views over the mountains, hills and beaches of Rio de Janeiro. Not only because of the experience itself which is absolutely adrenaline boosting, with an enormous kick afterwards. No, last but not least, it is because of the enormous enthusiasm and safety coaching of Rafael and equips of Bom Voo, including some insights on the mountains locally. And, amazing, free fotos and video included. Very well organized. With starting easy to find. All equipped. And coconut at the end. Top!!! TOP!!!
