Great experience - My two teenage daughters and I booked a trip on the spur of the moment when we (and the rest of our family) were at the peak having lunch. They were able to squeeze us in and it was a great experience. The wind wasn’t great so they took us to a secondary jump point which was higher up and for me even better. They were very professional and everything felt very safe. The rest of our family was at the viewing area and the guides made a point of doing a fly by so they could see us. We all had an awesome time and I would highly recommend. The pictures were a bit expensive (especially X3) but they were the only documentation of us up there so we kind of had to buy them.

First ever paragliding experience - First time paragliding - absolutely awesome experience! Our pilots were very professional and gave us all the information we needed before the flight. Our fight was amazing - we had plenty of airtime and the views were phenomenal. Special thanks to Tuscany for getting us organised. Thoroughly recommend!

Totally do this if you get a chance! - Had a fantastic experience jumping off the Skyline mountain with George and Ben, both real professionals and lovely guys. Views over Queenstown and the mountains were incredible, in perfect weather. The guys threw in a few acrobatic moves as well, that got the adrenalin flowing! In addition, I left some property behind, and the next day when I enquired about it, Keyan from ground crew dropped it into my hotel - what service from a greatcteam! Highly recommended.

Brilliant - Marika was great, it was all very relaxed and safe. First time experience. Amazing views! Only irritation was high cost of gondola (return only available, but only need one way obviously). No parking available at the very top either. If you plan to go up for the luge do it at the same time and save on cost. Otherwise it was a brilliant experience Many thanks!
