“Great experience. recommend it. and would do again. one thing you need to be aware, there may be few layers of companies from the online booking to the staff who do the jumping with you. it's not bad, just how things work in tourism in Nepal. Went with Blue sky paragliding group in the end for my actual jump/glide. highly recommend them. Bodhi was my pilot and spoke good English and showed his long experience as a pilot by answering every and all questions around jumping, route and life as a pilot. Price offered here was cheaper than other offerings seen. There is nothing I felt that was lacking to…”
