About this experience

Allow yourself to experience the thrill of freefalling at 120 miles per hour while securely attached in a harness to an experienced world-class instructor. Make your way to the meeting point to be greeted by the friendly team guiding you through your experience. You will be introduced to the instructor, who will explain the process, give a safety briefing, show the best body position for free fall, put on and check the harness.

After around 30-minute ascent in the plane, get harnassed to the front of your fully qualified tandem skydiving instructor, who will do a final check before exiting the aircraft from 10,000 feet (3,000 m). Enjoy the thrill of nearly 40 seconds adrenaline-fuelled freefall before the parachute will be deployed at around 5,000 feet to begin your 5-7 minute parachute ride down to the ground. Take in the breathtaking views from above as people skydive over the stunning Colombian Caribbean.
