Experience Rio de Janeiro from the Sky
See Rio de Janeiro from a completely different perspective on an unforgettable tandem paragliding flight from Niterói's City Park.
Located on the hills of Niterói, just across Guanabara Bay from Rio de Janeiro, Parque da Cidade is one of the most spectacular places to experience free flight in the region. From the takeoff area, enjoy panoramic views of Rio's iconic skyline, Guanabara Bay, the Rio-Niterói Bridge, and the beautiful beaches and coastline of Niterói.
Your Tandem Paragliding Experience
No previous paragliding experience is necessary. You will fly with an experienced professional tandem pilot, who will handle the technical aspects of the flight. At the same time, you relax, enjoy the scenery, and experience the sensation of free flight.
Before takeoff, your pilot will explain everything you need to know and give you simple instructions for a safe and comfortable launch.
Once in the air, sit back and enjoy the view. Depending on the wind and weather conditions, the flight may take different routes and provide different views of the Rio de Janeiro and Niterói landscapes.
From the sky above Niterói, you can see some of the most recognisable scenery in the Rio de Janeiro region.
Look towards Guanabara Bay and the city of Rio de Janeiro, with the famous Sugarloaf Mountain and Christ the Redeemer visible in the distance when conditions allow. On the other side, enjoy views of Niterói's beaches, mountains, lagoons, and the Atlantic Ocean.

Safety First
Tandem paragliding is conducted only when the weather and wind conditions are suitable for a safe flight.
Your pilot will evaluate the conditions before takeoff and may change the flight time or postpone the activity if the weather is not appropriate. This is an important part of responsible free-flight operations and helps ensure the best possible experience.
