About this tour
Launch from Tenerife's peaks in a tandem harness and drift above volcanic ridges, coastal cliffs, and Atlantic horizons. You're strapped to an experienced pilot who handles the wing while you soak in the thermal currents and panoramic sweep of the island. One hour aloft, departure from select hotel locations.
Highlights
- Ascend above Tenerife's volcanic terrain from a mountain launch point
- Glide past coastal cliffs with Atlantic views stretching to the horizon
- Ride thermal updrafts with a qualified tandem pilot
- Helmet and full safety harness provided
- Hotel collection and return available from most accommodation
What to expect
Your pilot will brief you on basic body position before you run together to catch the wind and lift off. Once airborne, you'll climb on thermals for 45–60 minutes, drifting in wide circles above the island. The sensation is surprisingly serene—your only job is to relax and look down. Landing is gentle and controlled on a designated zone. Expect cool air at altitude and a gentle descent.
Good to know
Not suitable if pregnant, with spinal injuries, or with cardiovascular concerns. Infants must sit on an adult's lap. Helmet and harness included. Video capture available for purchase. Check hotel eligibility for pickup; public transport serves the launch area.
