Paragliding experience for adventurous people

One paragliding session costs 1.3 million VND, visitors must contact to book about two weeks to a month in advance. Here are some things to keep in mind when wanting to experience paragliding:

1. Do you need to book in advance to paraglide?

Tourists should note that the paragliding experience is a free adventure experience, not a service or tour, so you need to contact the pilot in advance to schedule a flight. You should book at least two weeks, or a month, in advance. Currently in Da Nang, there is Mr. Hoang, head of Danang Paragliding, who regularly flies and trains people who are passionate about this sport. Cost 1.3 million VND/person/turn (not including taxi fee to go to Son Tra peak, taxi fare will be shared with the pilot). The average paragliding time is 10-15 minutes per flight, depending on weather conditions (mainly depends on the wind). 

2. Can I fly every day? 

Paragliding is an adventure sport, to ensure safety, flyers must follow the regulations. The following conditions cannot paraglide: cloudy weather, rainy weather, limited visibility after 4:30 p.m., wind in the wrong direction. In addition to external conditions, paragliding also depends on the pilot. Pilots can be busy with their own work, so sometimes even if you want, even if you have money, you can't go. 

3. Do I need a certificate? 

Paragliding experience is accompanied by a support person, so you do not need a certificate to participate, you only need to be someone who is not afraid of heights. However, if you are interested in learning how to fly: In Hanoi, Viet Wings teaches for 7 million VND/person/course (you can borrow a parachute to practice). 

4. What to prepare before flying? 

You need to prepare long clothes if you are afraid of getting dark due to sunburn. There are days when wind conditions are not good and you have to wait all day. Like my trip, I arrived at Son Tra around 10am, but my friend had to wait until 3:30pm to fly, after many times he couldn't take off. If you don't want to wear long clothes, you should prepare sunscreen to apply beforehand.  

5. Is there travel insurance? 

Because this is a voluntary experience for those who want to play and the club has not yet organized into a travel service, visitors who want travel insurance must buy it themselves. Paragliding costs do not include insurance for guests. You should consider carefully before participating.
