“Our paragliding experience was amazing! We were contacted by Jane via Whatsapp to sort specifics a day before our. Jane was very helpful & accommodating with timings.

One of us had to go by themselves as we were a group of 7, we did ask to go in groups of 3-2-2 but they had people booked right after us so it wasn't possible.
