5Don't miss out on the experience of a lifetime.
It was the first time my wife and I have paraglided. The experience was spectacular! We were driven 3/4 of the way up the mountain face. After a really short hike we both lifted off. Being in my late 60s all the worries of fitness and inability were quickly extinguished. Both guides allowed us to enjoy the experience we wanted. The tight spiral drop was the highlight of my whole trip!
5Hand down best experience
Hands down the absolute coolest experience in Iceland. A true MUST DO!!!! For those who are worried about it being scary - it is not. You float and feel very secure. The landing is smooth. They will do spins if requested, like I did, and no spins, like my husband requested. The view is stunning. You will not regret it. I know it is a bit expensive but soooo worth it. A lifetime memory.
5Truly incredible and worth every penny
My brother and I went in the middle of September and it was a truly wonderful and unforgettable experience. Sammi, Þráinn, and Katla were all incredibly kind and helpful, and walked us through each step of the way. If you enjoy thrills and adventures, this is definitely a must do in Vik.
5Outstanding experience!
What a truly amazing experience! My younger son has been talking about wanting to paraglide for years and he finally got his chance. It was all that he imagined and then some! Both of my teenage boys had a blast. The guides were excellent and the weather was amazing. The team provided us with some terrific GoPro videos as well. Takeoff and landing were both incredibly smooth and the boys got to do tricks in the air and steer for a bit as well. Highly recommend this experience!
5Exciting and unique Iceland Experience
I was nervous but they made it simple and stress free. It was a fun time for our whole family!
5UNFORGETTABLE!
This was a TERRIFIC experience. Sammi, Þráinn, and Katla were great guides. The paragliding rides were beautiful, smooth, and no experience was necessary. We enjoyed a nice long ride near mountains, cliffs, and over a black sand beach, and the videos we got after the experience capture all the memories of a fantastic adventure. Before the ride they took us on a quick trip up the mountain to see breathtaking views and, PUFFINS! If you want to see Iceland in a unique way, THIS is the way. HIGHLY recommend!
