The experience will leave you buzzing for a long time afterwards, wanting to come back for more. It is something to never forget, you have to do it to understand how amazing it is.

Tandem skydive

During this tandem skydive you will be connected via a harness to a fully qualified and experienced instructor who takes care of opening the parachute, piloting and landing.

A tandem skydive is the only way to experience the excitement and the thrill of jumping out an airplane and falling down in free fall with speeds of up to 190 kilometers without extensive training.

After a 20 minutes safety briefing you are ready to board the plane for the experience of a lifetime.
