Soaring with Boris: Epic Hang Gliding Over Riga!

5.00What an incredible adventure hang gliding over Riga! Boris, with over 40 years of experience, made the entire experience safe and thrilling as we soared above the Old Town, Daugava River, and Baltic Sea views. Booking was a breeze via WhatsApp with Tatyana, who responded quickly and clearly to confirm times and details - no hassle at all. Boris’s calm expertise put me at ease from briefing to landing, turning a bucket list thrill into pure magic. Highly recommend for adrenaline seekers!
Just fabulous!

5.00Incredible views over the city, the friendliest pilot you could hope for, and a private tour that makes the whole experience feel special. Plus a hangar full of small planes, which is just ridiculously cool if you’re even a little into aviation. ✈️😎

A once in a lifetime thrill

5.00Absolutely amazing experience and what a way to see the city! Definitely not for the faint of heart and if you’re afraid of heights you really might want to think about something else, but if your up for a once in a lifetime experience and unequaled views of the city and surrounding areas then this is it. Boris the pilot has over 40 years of flying experience and really knows what he’s doing, but there is very little communication before and zero during the flight, so don’t expect running commentary or explanations of what’s happening or going to happen. You have to trust the man and trust his equipment as you are literally sitting in a seat in the open air 1000 feet up and hanging by a few wires. As another review said, it’s like skydiving, but it last longer. If you have questions beforehand, Tatyana is great about communication via WhatsApp and they provide you with an amazing Go-Pro video and pictures of your flight included in the price which is a great bonus. I really can’t recommend this experience highly enough. It is truly a once in a lifetime thrill. Just be sure you know what you’re getting into before you book it. Don’t be put off by the closed airport and hangar they fly out of. It may look like a hideout from the old Batman TV show, but it’s only a 15 minutes cab ride from the city center and it works just fine. Good luck and happy flying!
