Real experiences from real travelers
The view of Annapurna South was life-changing. My pilot was very professional and made me feel safe throughout the entire flight. Booking through this site was much easier than trying to find a shop in Pokhara.
I was worried about the height but it was so smooth. We even did some 'stunts' at the end which were so fun! The photos they gave me on a microSD card are amazing quality.
The flight itself was 25 minutes of pure bliss. The pickup from my hotel was on time and the staff were very friendly. Worth every penny for the views alone.
I booked the Kathmandu flight and it was spectacular. Seeing the valley from 2100m up is something I will never forget. Very well organized.
As a pilot myself, I was impressed with their pre-flight checks and wing handling. This is a world-class paragliding destination and the service matched it.
Gliding with the eagles was the best part. It's so quiet and peaceful up there. The booking platform made it easy to compare prices and read recent reviews.
For $80, getting a flight, transport, and all my photos is a steal. The landing near the lake was very gentle. Highly recommend the morning slot for the clearest views.
The Himalayan backdrop is better than any photo. The pilots are very skilled. Everything was perfect from start to finish.

Pokhara (Sarangkot) is the primary hub, but paragliding is also available in Kathmandu (Godavari/Chapakharka) and Bandipur.
