I am so glad I booked this experience with Migel and Ariel! I had an incredible time with them. There was another woman on the tour with me and she went first. We were told exactly what to do during take off and landing and everything went smoothly. When it was my turn to go, Migel was watching the wind like a bird. We were all strapped in waiting for about 3 minutes before Migel said “let’s try again in a few minutes”. Apparently the wind was too strong but my untrained senses couldn’t detect any difference. I happily waited for safer conditions and when the wind calmed, we went up and soared with the birds for about 15 magical moments. I felt so safe with them. It was truly an incredible experience.
Best view seeing Ecuador from the sky.

Great experience with Santiago and the entire crew. Incredible views and super professional guide. Pickup was on time, we drove about 45 minutes out of town to the jump site. There we discussed safety measurements and prepped for the jump. Spent 20 +/- minutes flying above the hills. Bring warm clothes as it can get very cold up in the air.
Wonderful activity

Where can I start! Santi and his partner were the best! It was something I’ll never forget! The way they talk to you with calmness makes you forget you’re about to be in the air! My friend couldn’t fly, but they made sure to reschedule us! I’ll be back Santi!
Fly like a bird near volcano Tungurahua!
