Exhilarating and relaxing at the same time - The whole experience was amazing! Our pilots made us feel safe and comfortable, and while we waited for conditions to be right we were able to see some puffins and learn about each other. The flight was awesome!!! Exhilarating and relaxing at the same time

Great Experience! - Great experience for my first time paragliding! Friendly guides and we immediately got the gopro photos and videos which was nice. It was very short though, only about 5 minutes in the air because the conditions were not that great. They called the afternoon before to see if we could go then instead because conditions were better, but unfortunately we had a long day of other excursions and driving and could not make it work.

Highlight of our Iceland trip - My wife and I had a great time. Huge thrill and memorable experience. Will be the highlight of our week in Iceland. Even though we were nervous, the guides were super experienced and everything felt safe. The location and views were spectacular.

Spectacular! - The paragliding was one of the highlights of our Iceland trip (together with the ziplining we got as part of a combo)! Everyone, ages 7-45, loved it. The views are spectacular and the guides / pilots was helpful and courteous. HIGHLY recommended!

Just do it! Amazing Experience - Wonderful experience! Our first time parasailing and we could not have felt safer or had more fun than we did with the True Adventure team. Great communication as plans developed and very flexible allowing us to fly as soon as weather permitted. Amazing views of coast and Vik. Best way to see south coast!

Poor Customer Service - During our recent visit to Iceland, we were booked for a tandem paragliding flight. Due to poor weather conditions, we could not do this adventure, which is very understandable, and safety is paramount. This poor review is due to the need for customer consideration. We had driven early in the morning from Reykjavik to Vik, only to find out that the trip was canceled. The tour lead said he did not have our correct numbers (we updated his country code). He informed us that we could go out at 8 pm (weather permitting), and this worked perfectly because we would still be in the area. He said he would call or text to let us know. We did not hear a word. We tried to call, only to go to a voicemail that would not let us leave a message, and we did not receive a reply to our emails. We expected to receive a notification and information regarding a refund, but that never came. Upon returning to the States, I contacted the booking agency and secured the refund. I am sure this adventure is excellent; too bad their customer service is lacking.
