Everything was perfect. Super sunny with occasional breeze, UBER to site, ride to summit, jump off and landing couldn’t have been more perfect. Comfort to be able to trust the pro I was with knowing I was in great hands.

What an experience! I've never done anything like this before and it was epic. This was a last minute booking, as I kept putting it off and now I'm glad I did it. The flight was around 11-13 minutes, but the whole experience took about 1.5 hrs. Carlão was my flight partner who took care of everything. He was very friendly and extremely experienced. We had a good laugh as well. I would highly recommended this if you fancy doing this.
