FAQ

Paragliding flights: what guests ask

Do I need any training?

No. A tandem flight needs no experience: the pilot flies the wing, there is a short briefing before take-off, and the gear is provided and checked on site.

How do I choose a flight?

Go by airtime and season: for a first time — the Express flight (summer) or Winter Adventure; more time — Standard sightseeing or Winter Fairy Tale; adrenaline — aerobatics; the longest — Cross-country sightseeing. The format is finalised when we meet — by the weather and your preferences.

When is the season?

Summer flights run from 16 April to 4 December, winter flights from 5 December to 15 April (the winter start depends on the cable car). The Aragvi Canyon excursion flies all year round, motor flights from 1 May to 10 November (not running now).

What about the weather?

Summer flights run only in sunny daytime weather; the canyon excursion also flies in cloudy weather. If conditions are unsuitable — a free reschedule to the nearest window; if that is impossible — a deposit refund (payment-system fees are withheld).

How do I book and pay?

Write on WhatsApp or Telegram: date, number of guests, time. The manager confirms the slot and sends an invoice for a 95 GEL / €35 deposit per slot. The balance is paid on the day at Café Bar PILOT: cash in GEL or card; USD/EUR cash +3 %.

Weight and age limits?

Passenger 25–125 kg; from 80 kg a surcharge of +100 / +150 / +250 GEL, 110–125 kg only with pilot approval. Children aged 5–16 fly with parents or legal guardians, guests aged 60+ with a medical certificate.

Where do we meet and how long does it take?

At Café Bar PILOT (New Gudauri, Loft 1). The whole programme takes 50 to 120 minutes depending on the flight: settling up, transfer to the launch, briefing, flight, landing and the transfer back.

What should I bring?

Closed shoes, a windbreaker, warm clothes in winter; it is cooler at altitude. Phone and camera are optional: an HD video of the flight is included, and photos, 4K, 360° and drone can be added on site.

Can I give a flight as a gift?

Yes, a gift certificate for the chosen programme is valid for 12 months; the recipient books the date.

Write to us — we will pick a flight and book your slot

We reply in about 30 minutes, 09:00–21:00 (GMT+4), every day. We will suggest the format for your season, weight and expectations.
