Amazing experience, 100% recommend Ricardo - I had an amazing time! Ricardo Hamond is super experienced, has flown tens of thousands of times, and had such a chill vibe which put me at ease. I had chosen a morning timeslot but after deliberating with him, we changed it to an afternoon time slot since the wind would be much better. And I am beyond grateful we did that! The sky was super blue, it felt like flying as a bird since they were literally next to us, and with his instructions everything went smoothly. Afterwards I chose to get the videos, and I would 100% recommend the insta360 video and the whole activity. For me truly a wonderful and once in a lifetime experience 😄

So worth it… - The experience was so beautiful and so worth it. My sister did hang gliding with Ricardo and I did paragliding with another person (I forgot his name) but both people were so nice and welcoming. They explained everything to us from beginning to start and once we took off the view was just breathtaking. Thank you to both of them for this amazing experience!

Epic Rio bucket list experience - Was very impressed with how professional they were. Having assessed the wind conditions, they suggested that I go para gliding instead of hang gliding and I am happy they did. The trip lasted about 20 minutes given the favourable wind conditions. The pilot was a pro and it was a highlight of the trip. These guys know what they are doing and you’re safe in their hands

Perfect experience! - The experience was amazing, Ricardo was very friendly and very experienced. We could see how trained he was and capable for this kind of adventure. He showed us a great time and was very considerate. Would 100% recommend him to my own family members or other friends.

Great Hang Gliding Experience - Great experience! Felt very safe. Pictures/videos turned out great. Unfortunately one of my friends had to paraglide even though we all wanted to hang glide. Also another one of my friends and I had the same instructor take us, which meant the whole process took a little longer than expected. Still overall would highly recommend.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five-Star Experience! - My hang gliding experience was absolutely unforgettable! From start to finish, everything was smooth, safe, and so much fun. My instructor was incredibly nice, patient, and professional — he made me feel comfortable the entire time and explained every step clearly. The views were breathtaking, and the adrenaline rush was unmatched. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an exciting adventure!
