  • Worth the time and money!

    The experience was so worth it, it’s something you have to try at least once in your life. The views were amazing, somewhat scared of heights so was worried but it was a smooth ride up, you slowly move higher and move with the wind so its not a shaky ride. The landing part does feel somewhat scary because the impact thought we were tipping over but it goes so just use the landing position they tell you and you should be good!

  • Excellent experience all around, a must do tour.,
