Real Google reviews from guests who experienced tandem paragliding in Madeira with AltitudeX.
Posted on SusanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fijne communicatie en heel vriendelijke mensen!!Posted on Steven TaylorTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Earlier this month I went paragliding in Madalena do Mar (Madeira) with instructor Vasco from AltitudeX. Communication beforehand went very well through Whatsapp. It was a very nice and special experience for me. Vasco was very nice and friendly, and speaks English very well. After the instruction we went paragliding together (tandem), and we flew over the coast of Madalena do Mar. I could see the ocean, mountains, banana plantations etc. While in the air, we made pictures and a video that Vasco later edited for me. After the flight, we had a drink in a local cafe. Vasco arranged a discount on the taxi for me, which saved me a lot of money. Thank you! I can recommend flying with Vasco. Steven (Netherlands)Posted on Catarina SousaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Esta experiΓͺncia de voo de parapente foi incrΓvel! A atenΓ§Γ£o, o cuidado e profissionalismo do instrutor Vasco e equipa destacam-se do inΓcio ao fim da viagem. A preparaΓ§Γ£o para o voo, iniciou-se com uma explicaΓ§Γ£o calma mas detalhada e precisa dos procedimentos a ter em atenΓ§Γ£o. Depois, jΓ‘ durante o voo, fui invadida por uma sensaΓ§Γ£o de liberdade que nΓ£o tem descriΓ§Γ£o possΓvel, de tΓ£o boa! Ver a paisagem de cima, as montanhas a encontrarem o mar, o cΓ©u limpo, Γ© de cortar a respiraΓ§Γ£o e verdadeiramente libertador. Poder trocar impressΓ΅es com o instrutor, durante todo o processo, tornou tudo muito mais confortΓ‘vel, alΓ©m de que transmitiu muita confianΓ§a. Tambem disponibilizam registos do momento, uma vez que voamos com equipamento fotogrΓ‘fico, GoPro. Recomendo esta viagem a quem procure uma experiΓͺncia diferente mas segura, com vistas simplesmente incrΓveis e de cortar a respiraΓ§Γ£o. Obrigada a todos!Posted on Sgbx1472 SgbxTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
