Hello guys
Me an my friend will be traveling to New Zealand end of this year. This is a first time for her to go traveling and I would like to make it an amazing experience for her. I know paragliding is all depending on weather. But it will be even more difficult for us as my friend is full time wheelchair user. I know how amazing you guys are as I did paragliding with you 2014. I was wondering if there is any possibility for you to take wheelchair user paragliding.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards Renata
I think there is so far from Queenstown. So do I have to go to there myself?
Hi Alvin,
We do provide a free shuttle service from downtown Queenstown. No additional charges.

What is the age limit?
Hi Sean,
We do not have an age limit as such. With paragliding we currently have a minimum of 20kg and a maximum of 110kg. These numbers change throughout the season, so always best to let us know when you arrive. Also important is that we can secure the passenger safely in harnesses – that is specifically important for smaller passengers like kids.
Hope this helps.

Awesome Tony, I was a rather nervous 69 year old but no problem to him – it was awesome Thanks Willie
Fantastic Willie 🙂
Amazing! This was my second time paragliding. The view from Coronet Peak during Winter was spectacular and the flight down such a peaceful way to see the sights. Tony was a brilliant pilot who made my birthday so special. He got my friends and the other pilots to sing happy birthday on top of Coronet Peak and recorded it on my video which will be a special memory keepsake for years to come. My video and pictures were so good. Thank you Tony.
Fantastic, Maree.
Glad to hear you had a good time paragliding with our Tony.
Happy late birthday.

Fantastic company and amazing crew! My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our Paragliding experience. Every staff member was friendly and efficient. Our instructors were Dano and Keith, who were absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend them! I guarantee that you will not be disappointed.
Great Jo,

On the very top of my bucket list was to hangglide one day at home in Oz. Today I went one better and went paragliding over Queenstown, one of the most beautiful places on earth. The guys that run the show are an awesome bunch, Daniel, my pilot, was an absolute legend and made the whole experience just that much easier, especially to suck up the courage to jump. Being up there was one of the most surreal and mind blowing things I’ve ever done. And when it came time to do a few high G loops and spins… @#%&#%& ! The biggest buzz of my life. Hands down.
Didn’t even know I could pull those faces until I saw the video!
Anyone contemplating whether or not to do it… Suck it up, get up there, and get ready to feel alive. Could even be the life changing buzz you’ve been looking for.
Awesome, Paul!
Thanks heaps for the great feedback.
