You’ll be able to see more than 200 square kilometers of the beautiful Fethiye scenery. If you choose the second flight of the day, at 11:00, it’s likely to be the longest due to thermal activity.

The third flight is at 13:30 and is a bit longer due to stronger conditions. With hazy, misty weather, conditions are not as good for photography, but the take-off and landing are easier. At 15:30, with the fourth flight, the thermal activity is weaker, meaning a smoother flight. It can be a bit hot in the middle of the summer, however. The day’s last flight, or sunset flight, departs at 17:45. With the sun low behind the island of Rhodes, conditions make for some wonderful sunset photography and a smooth and pleasant flight. You’ll get a briefing from the instructor on what to do and what not to do, and you’ll receive the appropriate boots and helmet, and a flying suit if the weather is cool. Typically you’ll fly side-by-side, and close together, making for better pictures of you and your group in the air.

My wife and I had a great time flying with Hanuman, it was an incredible experience. Everything was perfectly managed from communication with the office, to punctual pick up service and highly experienced pilots. My pilot was Deniz and he was extremely safe and professional. My wife had Baris selected as her pilot as my wife was quite nervous and he has very good English, so he was able to talk with her and calm her down and made her so relaxed that she considered this flight as her number one experience of our one month holiday in Turkey! She thoroughly enjoyed her time in the air as did I. Well done Hanuman!

I went paragliding with Hanuman paragliding. It was absolutely astonishing! I have never experienced something like this before. Not only the paragliding was amazing but also the trip toward the peak of a high mountain with gorgeous views. The pilots of the flights were really kind and helpful. There wasn’t one moment were I felt unsure. I highly recommend paragliding with Hanuman to everyone whom is visiting Fethiye ! Thanks a lot to the crew from Hanuman

This was fantastic. We had never bin before and the staff were wonderful. I would recinrnd a pair of gloves ,sun glases and a coat as it gets a little cold with the wind . Flight is about 35-45 mins depending on wind . Minibus up to the top of the hill and Flight back down . It was brilliant.
