Booked our paragliding at 9.30am, but we can't get there on time because the gondola to the site actually start operating at 9.30am.
I emailed the G Force Team about this situation and they really wait for us which is great. The experience is so great, tandem is professional, even doing some tricks mid-air. Overall great activity in Queenstown.

Ben and Brendon were awesome! They made us feel totally comfortable and made the whole experience east and fun. The only thing that would be nice to change is for the gondola ticket to be included in the price of the experience.

Pretty good experience. It was a bit confusing that I could book an early bird online but that it wasn’t then available. I’d look into a system that auto updates your bookings. Other than that all good! The support team once I booked was also stellar!

We were gifted a voucher for Everything New Zealand for our wedding. We booked two experiences for whilst in Queenstown using the voucher and some additional money. Upon booking one of our experiences, due to covid-19 staffing issues, the tour wasn't occurring everyday as normal. The team at Everything New Zealand made it their priority to organise us on another tour that suited our desires and available days. They also were in top communication regarding our paragliding booking as well in regards to the weather/transportation. Highly recommend using them when booking your adventures around the country.

Easy to communicate with, prompt responses, activity booked as promised. I was not able to paraglide, so they offered to rebook or refund the money. Since I left Queenstown, they sent an email assuring me a refund within 3 to 5 days. I am confident I will receive it and will book activities with them in the future.

ENZ Experiences Ltd Review
I was a bit nervous at first as I had been watching some customers before me doing some pretty amazing aerobatics and I don't have the best of stomachs! I told my pilot, Guy, that he might be wearing my breakfast if he flew me the same way. No dramas at all. He said he'd go easy and give me the scenic option (the one for grandmas!). That he did. I had an amazing flight with heaps of lift, a gentle landing and got some superb photos of my experience.
Suggestions: Paragliding is weather dependent and can be cancelled by high winds or winds simply in the wrong direction. Book for one of your first days in Queenstown so that you can reschedule if necessary. Also book a morning flight to beat the crowds as during summer it can be extremely busy during the middle of the day.
