Take off from Parque da Cidade in Niterói, just across Guanabara Bay from Rio de Janeiro, and experience the freedom of tandem paragliding with spectacular views of Rio and the Niterói coastline.
Your Tandem Paragliding Experience
No previous paragliding experience is required. Fly with an experienced professional tandem pilot who will take care of the technical aspects while you relax, enjoy the scenery, and experience the sensation of free flight.
Before takeoff, your pilot will explain what you need to know and give you simple instructions for a comfortable launch.
Once in the air, enjoy panoramic views that can include Guanabara Bay, Rio de Janeiro’s iconic skyline, the Rio-Niterói Bridge, Niterói’s beaches and coastline, the Atlantic Ocean, and the surrounding mountains.
When visibility and weather conditions allow, you may also see some of Rio’s most famous landmarks, including Sugarloaf Mountain and Christ the Redeemer in the distance.
A Unique View of Rio de Janeiro
Parque da Cidade is located on the hills of Niterói, overlooking Guanabara Bay and the cities of Rio de Janeiro and Niterói. Its elevated takeoff point offers a unique perspective of the region and is a spectacular setting for a tandem paragliding flight.
Depending on the wind and weather conditions, the flight route and views may vary. Every flight is shaped by the natural conditions of the day, making each experience unique.
Photos and Video Included
Your experience includes photos and video of your tandem flight, so you can share the adventure with friends and family and keep a lasting memory of your time in the sky.
Safety Comes First
Tandem paragliding depends on suitable wind and weather conditions. Before each flight, your pilot evaluates the conditions and makes the final decision about whether it is appropriate to fly.
If conditions are not suitable, the flight may be delayed, rescheduled, or postponed. This is an essential part of responsible free-flight operations and helps provide a safe and enjoyable experience.
