This was such an amazing experience! They are very professional, and the communication was excellent. The wind conditions weren't right in the morning, but they contacted me as soon as we could go ahead and sent transport to pick me up when I was ready. I was so glad I was able to do it, and I felt completely safe. Since getting home I've watched the GoPro footage which shows me with the biggest grin on my face the whole time!

Amazing experience and at the end, wished I could do it all over again. Finding the specific start location for ASA Delta was a struggle but fine after we asked around the location for a bit. Seems to be a number of flight companies based there. Could maybe do with a sign! Aside from that and little bit of a wait around along the beautiful beach, the whole experience was easy and the views once up there were spectacular. Our pilots and instructors Bebe and Hilton was brilliant and geared the training for me and my wife. We got a run through of our included front facing video as well as the optional side and 360 views. These were nice but we opted out and there was no pressure to buy. If ever in Rio, this is a must do and a definite highlight for me.

My friends and I had such an amazing time hangliding! Everyone we worked with was so nice, funny, and approachable. We didn't fun into any issues at all and the communication was great. While hangliding, the views were incredible and it was unreal to see Rio from a bird's eye view! Book hangliding/paragliding with this company! It's definitely worth it!
