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

Parasailing
Thoroughly enjoyed the time up in the sky, views were amazing, our photos were awesome too. I'm usually not good with heights but didn't feel wobbly & looking down was sweet, felt totally secure in the harness. We dd think the staff could have made the journey a little bit more fun & interactive with the passengers on board.

Hi Becs, Thanks so much for your amazing 5-star review! Well done for facing your fears; Parasailing is much more peaceful than jumping out of planes, that's for sure! We appreciate your feedback- the boys usually aren't shy! We look forward to seeing you out on the lake again! 🤙😍

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!
