Unfortunately the hang gliding could not take place. Online I scheduled it for 9am in the morning but after two and a half days we couldn’t find a suitable time with good weather

Instructor Brian was absolutely accommodating and insightful in pointing out all the key spots when lifting in the air. The experience was surreal, coupled with Brian's friendly and charismatic nature makes an unforgettable experience that will leave you walking away with much warmth and comfort! Thank you Brian and Michael for an amazing time!

Bryan was taking care of me for this experience, and I can confidently say he was one of the best things on this experience. I'm usually a little scared of heights and hang gliding itself can be a scary thought. But Bryan talked to me throughout the whole experience and made me feel extremely safe. I was not even a little bit scared and I felt secure the whole time we were gliding. The launch and landing was made extremely easy and smooth for me which made me feel like I wasnt even flying and so far high up- it felt like I was floating. The view from up there is once in a lifetime experience, we saw the water, some of the bushlands. My favourite part was seeing an eagle from up there! Bryan did a 360 of the town for me and it was such a surreal experience. This is definitely a must-do and with Bryan! He also provided me with some gopro footage which made the experience much more memorable so I can relive the feelings all over again. Thankyou so much Bryan!
