Overview

Orlando 2500 Foot Tandem Hang Gliding Experience

Experience the Effortless Beauty of Flying a Hang Glider!

Have you ever wondered what birds feel flying high above? Have you ever dreamed of soaring like an eagle with a bird’s eye view of beautiful Florida? Come join us in the excitement, adventure and effortless beauty of flying a hang glider! Hang gliding is the purest form of free flight…no engines, no cockpits. Just you and the majesty of the surrounding world.

Take an introductory flight to 2500 feet with a certified tandem instructor. Our professional instructors will take you on the flight of a lifetime! Depending upon weather, you can see both Florida coasts, Downtown Disney and Epcot, Universal Studios, Orlando, Tampa, and on special days you might even see a shuttle or missile launch from Cape Canaveral!

In tandem hang gliding, the student and instructor pilot the glider together. They are attached to each other as well as hooked into the glider. Tandem hang gliders are designed specifically for tandems and certified by the United States Hang Gliding Association and United States Hang Glider Manufacturing Association. The wing is larger than those designed for individual use which makes it safe and easy to fly. Our tandem gliders have heavy-duty landing gear and oversized harnesses to ensure your safety and comfort.

We use an ultralight airplane like a taxi to take us to our desired altitude. Once released from the plane, you will be amazed at how quiet and peaceful flying is. Our instructors will show you how to fly the glider, teaching you the basics of turning, slowing and diving the glider. After these simple instructions, you will have the freedom to fly. Our instructors are there to ensure that your flight is the most exciting, safe, and memorable experience of your life!

Tandem hang gliding requires no experience and is perfect for beginners. If after your first flight you are hooked and want to learn how to fly on your own, we have an established training program to help you earn your ratings for solo hang gliding flight. And if you progress through our training and learn to fly on your own, you will truly feel like a soaring eagle!

Anyone with a desire can fly. We are handicap accessible and can accommodate any ages. Come feel the exhilaration of free flight at the largest hang gliding school in Florida!
