5.00If hang gliding in Brazil isn't on your bucket list, it needs to be—immediately. From the moment I was strapped in, nerves and all, I felt like I was about to take flight in the best way possible. As soon as we launched off the cliff, it was pure magic. The views of the ocean, the mountains, and the colorful rooftops of Rio below were breathtaking. I felt like a bird! My instructor Nito was amazing—super chill, funny, and made me feel completely safe the entire time. He even snapped some incredible photos of me near the edge . The landing was smoother than I expected—no crash, just a graceful glide onto the sand but make sure you listen to him while landing that's were the skills come into play. 10/10 recommend if you’re in Brazil and looking for that once-in-a-lifetime adrenaline rush with a view that will have your jaw on the floor. I still can’t believe I did it—and I’d do it again in a heartbeat.
Excellent experience with beautiful views.

5.00My husband had a fantastic flight paragliding. It’s filmed throughout and you were also allowed to take your own camera. Beautiful views over Rio. Sao Conrado’s tandem flight was who we were booked with. Unfortunately we have forgotten the name of the instructor, but he was very experienced and reassuring. There’s also a lovely place to sit with a cold drink whilst watching all of the paragliders and hang gliders come in to land. We sat for ages watching them all.
Amazing views

5.00This was an incredible experience. I chose paragliding because I wanted to be seated. I was super excited to do it until I got to the top and got scared lol. My guide reassured me and off we went. I’m so glad I did this 10/10. My guide Luiz was awesome and gave me a literal Birds Eye View tour and showed me popular areas and famous landmarks. Don’t let your nerves stop you from the thrill of this amazing experience.
