Tandem paragliding in Tenerife

About this tour

The outfit's two-and-a-half decades running flights here means routes are dialled and safety protocols thorough.

What to expect

You'll meet your pilot at the launch point and get a brief on what to expect during flight—they'll explain the sensations of launch and landing, and answer any last-minute nerves. The takeoff is straightforward: you run a few steps as the wing inflates overhead, then you're airborne. Once aloft, the pilot takes all control inputs; you're free to enjoy the ride, spot landmarks below, and let the camera capture your expression. Expect thermals to lift and drop you gently. The descent is smooth and controlled, landing on a designated zone. Back in the vehicle within two hours total.
