Nepal >>Tandem Flights

 

Tandem Flights

Tandem FlightsFor 10 years we have been exploring the Himalaya, searching for the Ultimate adventure imaginable. We think we have found in Nepal, what must be the most unique aerial experience.

Tandem flying involves a pilot flying with a passenger. Both have separate harnesses that are attached to each other and the wing. Paragliding harnesses are built for comfort and safety, they feel more like an armchair. Once launched the passenger just sits back, relaxes and takes in the epic scenery. Even taking pictures is not a problem. Due to the portable nature and easy launch characteristics of a paraglider (they fit into a rucksack) We can take them anywhere and fly them from most mountains in Nepal.

Annapurna Panorama Flights
We take a 20 min jeep ride from Pokhara to Sarangkot the viewpoint 2000ft above Lakeside. From here we can see 3 of the highest mountains in the world. Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, Manasulu, all over 8000 m. We offer 3 types of tandem flight from here.
