Great experience and great instructors! They were very accommodating. They really wanted us to have the best weather conditions to make the most of our experience. Will do again!

This is the coolest thing I have ever done! My husband and I went while on our honeymoon and it was amazing! Theres really nothing like it and no way to describe how it feels to be up there. If youre local or just visiting you should give them a call! They were so nice and professional, I felt very safe with them. I went with the owner of the business on a tandem ride and he was very friendly and even let me steer, they also brought GoPros for each of us to film our rides and edited the video for us! I promise this is something youd want to do again if you give it a try!

Project airtime is the most amazing organization that helps people with disabilities achieve freedom Theres nothing better than seeing the biggest glowing smile on an individual with disabilities face when theyre done flying with Chris. Thank you Chris.

This is an excellent place to go if you are looking for a stellar view. There best time is about 90 minutes after dark, when all the city lights come on, but you are still far enough away to see lots of stars. You can see all the way to salt lake clearly from here on a nice night. Great place for a picnic during the day, or for a stargazing party at night.

The view from up here is amazing. 10/10 would recommend as the destination for a drive or as a picnic location. Great parking area too.

I can say that Nice Sky Adventures Paragliding definitely deserves five stars. I would give them ten stars if I could. Chris Honlow went way above and beyond. I am 66 years young. It was a bit of a stretch starting paragliding at my age. Chris made me feel incredibly safe. He took me for a Tandum flight at the Point of the mountain in Utah. I loved every nano second of my flight. I would trust any member of my family to fly with Chriss team. They are all incredible pilots. Their skill levels are world class!!!! If you are considering learning to fly Nice Sky is who I would recommend.

THIS was SO fun!!! What an awesome experience!!!We booked 2 tandem paragliding flights for my husbands 40th birthday!First of all, Chris, the owner of the company, is amazing. Hes thorough, professional, laid back and suuuuper nice. He made us feel comfortable from the very beginning by explaining every detail about how this adventure works!Secondly, the other pilot, Brian, was equally as amazing. He was fun to talk to and made the whole experience brilliant.The whole experience was so fun. It was beautiful and we got very high!! Brian gave me the option to do some fun turns to make it feel like a rollercoaster and I went for it!! OMG so much fun, I was giggling like a schoolgirl.Overall, fantastic experience!! I highly recommend this company!!

I signed up for the Thrill-seeker ride and it was a blast! The first day we got flying but didnt have enough lift to get us up above the mountain so they invited me back the next day for the full thrill-seeker experience! It was the best, we were flying high and having fun! I got to fly with Chris and then with Alex on the second day, they were both awesome and patient with me as I asked and learned about the paragliding technique and skills. A solid company, they make sure you get the experience youre looking for. Thanks guys!

We had a great experience. Everyone was really nice and easy to work with. We had to reschedule because of the weather but it wasnt a big deal and they accommodated our schedules. I recommend them.

Ended up here for a great view of the fireworks on the July 24th celebration looking out to the valley seeing explosions all over the place.

Great. No complaints. I did the tandem ride. My guide was very experienced and knowledgeable. He even let me steer! (For only for a few turns....but still awesome). It was a great introduction into the sport.

I did the Discovery Tandem flight and it was awesome. Even though the conditions turned to not be the greatest everything possible was done to make sure that I got in the air. In addition to them being so accommodating to getting me in the air they offered for me to come back again to go for more flight time. I plan on returning soon to pursue getting certified and acquiring a glider of my own.

Our 8yr old daughter, Brianna, had THE BEST time paragliding with Chris Hunlow!We were amazed at how smooth everything went from the moment he lifted her out of her wheelchair to take off to the time they landed!She had such a wonderful time! So much so that the first word out her mouth when they landed was MORE!!!Chris is extremely professional and compassionate about what he does and it sure showed! No wonder he came highly recommended to us!We wouldnt trust anyone else to take Brianna flying! Cant wait to take her back next Spring!!Thank you Chris for giving our daughter the experience of a lifetime! If we could give you 10 stars, we would!

I tend to be leery of postiive review after postive review, especially nowadays, because so many companies seem to bribe customers into writing a positive review. As unbiased as i can be and with no bribes i assure you, i just want to say that these guys know customer service. I have very seldom come across a company like this where the focus of success is entirely based on the customers positive experience. Go and enjoy the heck out of flying, and if you dont enjoy it, they will do whatever they can to make sure you walk away happy. I highly recommend Nice Sky Adventures.

I went flying with Mr. Nice Sky last October, and it was a BLAST. Ive always had a fear of heights, but I decided to swallow my phobia and go for it. The Pilot put me at ease through the entire process. Before I knew it we were soaring through the air like an EAGGGLE. I wouldnt hesitate to go again, Im even looking into getting certified myself by Mr. Nice Sky. Thanks again for the memories.

I took my daughters Skye & Madi paragliding for their birthdays. Thank you Chris so much for giving them the experience of a life time you were good with the girls and explained why and what was going on so they felt safe . I would recommend you as a tandem instructor for anyone out there. If your looking to go paragliding look no further Nice Sky Adventures is the way to go hands down again Thanks Chris

Review №33

Wow wow wow is best said here. I had little idea of what to expect. Chris & Blake literally took out breathes away and I think I squealed repeatedly when the chute took turns in the air. Great guys, very professional and they know their stuff. Weather, winds, temperature is what makes you stay up in the air as I later learned and this business has the safety and know-how. Young or old, this is the Utah adventure for you!

Waited for about an hour for the wind to pick up but it was a blast once we got up. Beau was my pilot and we had an awesome Tandem flight. I would do it again.

The paragliding was awesome, more than I had anticipated. But what I had dreamed of since I was nine, when I was home in Iceland, and put a flour-sack on my back trying to fly like the seagulls. I really cant thank you enough, Chris. Ill always remember my 88th year celebration. What great memories!!!Everyone should experience the exhilaration of paragliding with Nice Sky Adventures. Wow!

We took our son to the point so he could watch the paragliders. Key word watch. The moment he saw the gliders he was in love, then when he noticed that people were flying them.... Total Elation!! After 45 minutes of toddler beggings and all the please moms and I wanna fly da kites he could muster, mom finally gave in and let him fly. Best choice we have made in a long time!! He kept yelling Im flying like a bird!!! It was so amazing!! At 3 years old we have a big passion brewing :) Chris Hunlow was incredable!! He was extremely careful and gentle not to mention professional and safe. We would trust him to fly anyone at any age from 3 to 103. The whole next day he would tell anyone that would listen how he got to fly da kite. So if you are wondering if you should do it.. GO and let yourself fly like a bird too :)
