Long wait before our slot with nowhere to sit. The activity itself was fine. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing.
Thank you for travelling with us — glad the route worked out.
Worth it for the view alone. Everything ran to time. Recommended.
Short, but the safety brief was thorough and the crew were completely unhurried. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Would send friends their way.

Short, but the safety brief was thorough and the crew were completely unhurried. Dorms were tidy and the common areas were where the group actually gelled. No hesitation recommending them.

Yes on all three. Bungy runs roughly 45 to 100 kg; tandem paragliding has an upper limit around 90 kg depending on the wing and conditions; both screen for heart conditions, back and neck injuries and pregnancy. Anyone turned away on medical grounds is refunded that activity.
