What a blast! My daughter and I had so much fun, definitely a highlight of our trip. Everything is weather dependent so they had to reschedule but it worked out fine for us. Be flexible it is so worth it!

Beautiful, we like your review. 🙏

Amazing experience! The pilots were accommodating, kind, and hilarious. They really got to know us before, during, & after the flight and also gave us some local recommendations. Also, they made the landings very graceful. Would recommend if you’re searching for a south coast thrill!
Response from Host, Nov 2022
The landings... yes, it's been a challenge making them as graceful as we do. 😉 Hope we see you again one day. ❤️

My son and I had an incredible experience! They are very kind guys with a lot of knowledge and experience. It’s their passion and it shows that they enjoy sharing it! My son and I would both highly recommend doing this! It’s so fun.
Response from Host, Nov 2022
It's incredible to be able to share the sky with all you awesome people that come and visit us. ❤️

Our family of 4 planned to paraglide, but we were fogged out at our 10am trip. They did everything they could to accommodate us, including us a free zip line tour. We decided to move east and call around 2 to see if we could return if the conditions were better. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t cooperating. Biggest disappointment of our trip to Iceland was not being able to paraglide, but not much anyone could have done to prevent it. Even though we didn’t fly, we felt like this operation did everything they could to accommodate us. We appreciated their honestly and integrity. Viator easily refunded our money.
