A tandem flight with Queenstown Paraflights is an amazing experience for both young and old and an unforgettable memory of your stay in Queenstown.

Widely considered a 'must do', for many this is the highlight of their holiday in the Southern Lakes region.

Queenstown Paraflights operate winch direct para-sailing, this means you will be gently lifted into the air from the boat for your flight, and returned gently to the deck again once the experience is over - ensuring you stay safe and dry.

Flug und Service super. Wetter bescheiden

Für das Wetter kann das Team nichts. Wegen zuviel Wind könnte der Flug morgens um 9:00h nicht stattfinden. Wir könnten an einem anderen Tag buchen, oder 3 Stunden später zum Team kommen. Dann wird kurzfristig geprüft, ob ein Flug möglich ist. Es war möglich! Es machte viel Spaß. Es war auch möglich das Smartphone beim Flug zu nutzen. Natürlich auf eigenes Risiko. Es wurde das Phone mit einem Seil an der Hose fixiert. Dann kann man sich die Kosten für Fotos sparen. Denn diese werden alle 30 Sekunden gemacht und zeigen nur die Gesichter. Was im Hintergrund zu sehen ist, ist Zufall. Wir empfehlen die Teilnahme sehr. Das Team war perfekt. Service orientiert, freundlich und gut organisiert. Danke!
