Who once visited the mountains, will remember with admiration that special feeling that you experience only in the mountains - harmony and unity with nature, about the energy that the mountains give to everyone who was able to overcome and conquer them. But not everyone can tell about the beauties of the mountain landscape from a breathtaking height. Tandem paragliding in Gudauri provides such an opportunity!
A paraglider is one of the lightest and most comfortable aircraft, which is easily assembled in a special backpack. The paragliding system consists of a paraglider, a harness and a pilot, and the paraglider itself flies thanks to dynamic and thermal updrafts. A paraglider is considered a safe flying vehicle due to its ease of control, good stability and low takeoff and landing speed. This also affects the fact that the paraglider is acceptable to any person who is in moderate health. A two-seat paraglider is called a tandem. Paragliding in tandem is designed for two people: a pilot and a passenger, with the passenger in front and the pilot in the back.
The site that is used for the start is selected very carefully, it must meet all the requirements. In Gudauri, the start is on the feet, with a run up the slope.
It takes no more than 10-15 minutes, the guest does not need any knowledge and skills, since the instructor takes over the entire management process. The client only has to admire the extraordinary mountain landscapes and shoot on a video camera or your phone.
We invite you to visit an incredibly beautiful place - Gudauri! The unique location of Gudauri on a high relief plateau surrounded by mountain ranges allows you to enjoy amazing views of the mountain peaks. There are ideal weather conditions for paragliding - almost always sunny and fresh mountain breeze.
To date, paragliding is considered the most popular and widely available flight solution, and flying with an instructor is safe! All our flights are made in tandem: pilot and passenger. All pilots use equipment (certification of equipment from leading companies is a prerequisite) and have a long flight experience. Each pilot has excellent health and good physical fitness, so that he can confidently lift himself and a passenger into the air. We check the weather conditions at the beginning of the ascent to the start, during the ascent and right before the flight.
When planning to fly on a paraglider, one must take into account that the wind gusts are stronger at altitude, which means it will be much colder.
Persons over 18 years old, as well as children over 7 years old, accompanied by one of the parents, are allowed to fly. It is better to refuse the flight for those who suffer from chronic cardiovascular diseases.
- especially during takeoff, the passenger is required to fulfill all the pilot's commands, because he is responsible for the health and life of the guest;
- video filming will be conducted, and if desired, the guest can get a recording for himself;
- the passenger can take photos and videos on his mobile phone.
We are ready to make your dreams come true, an unforgettable tandem paragliding flight in Gudauri awaits you!

While you may come across paragliding services offered at significantly lower prices, it's important to remember that the quality of your experience—and the safety measures in place—are often directly tied to what you pay. At best, a cheaper service might meet your basic expectations. At worst, it could lead to serious incidents or even more tragic outcomes.
When choosing a paragliding pilot, don’t leave your safety to chance! It’s crucial to thoroughly research and verify the qualifications of your instructor. Many unlicensed or inexperienced pilots, sometimes posing as professionals or working with intermediaries, may try to entice you with lower prices and promises of extended flight times. However, these compromises often come at the expense of your safety and the quality of your experience.
