“You’re waiting in the top for a bit if the wind is bad but it is worth it! It was an amazing experince.”
See Christ the Redeemer, Copacabana, Ipanema, Sugarloaf, and Guanabara Bay on a brief Rio helicopter flight from Lagoa.
“I would give them zero, but … I’m being nice. If you are traveling solo or a couple DO NOT BOOK your flight with them. I booked this activity because a brazilian girl in my flight told me to do this activity. Showed up at my scheduled time as so did another guy. We both wasted our morning thinking we were going to flight over, however, we were not able to do so because a 3rd person was missing. I understand the fuel and their requirements, the problem is that this site will let you book the tour even if you are only 1. Before you book confirm with them…”

“100000% percent recommend this, it is well worth the money. I still think it’s a 10/10 experience but I think next time I will go with the doors closed as the wind can cause some discomfort but overall one of the best things I’ve ever done!”

Review of the 10-minute Iguassu Falls helicopter flight in Brazil, with honest advice on views, seating, waiting times, price, weather, and value.
“AMAZING!! Views and vibes were immaculate and unreal. Chopper seats 6 people, 1 in the passenger seat and 5 in the back. Everyone has access to the views but obviously passenger is probably best seat and the 4 window seats are next best, so one person does get stuck in the back middle which kinda sucks. Best to go in a group of 6 so you know each other and don’t have rude and aggressive tourists on your 10 minute flight literally pushing your head out of the way so they can get some probably awful photo of nothing. So yeah go with a bigger group or be there in…”
Review of Rio hang gliding near Pedra Bonita, with flight details, costs, safety tips, photos, timing, and advice on who should book.
“We were 3 friends and two of my friends really loved it and main reason was that they had an amazing tandem guide. My guide was not great and Infact he made me very conscious and uncomfortable so the overall experience was tarnished. I think the guide does make a difference in these experiences.”
Rio hang gliding review with flight views, safety tips, added fees, weather risks, timing advice, and help deciding if this thrill is worth it.
“While I greatly enjoyed the experience, I was disappointed and a little ticked off to find out that I still had to pay more for the experience beyond the $230 I spent here. I had to pay for the club fees, which in all honesty should have been advertised as an extra cost and added to the total here. The real cost is around $260.”
