The experience was incredible! The team was not only highly professional, but they also genuinely cared about how people was feeling and knew exactly how to make us feel relaxed and comfortable. A special thank you to my instructor, Carlos. Even though there were only three simple body positions to remember (and somehow I still managed to mess them all up! 😂), he was incredibly patient, encouraging, and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. He was absolutely fantastic. Also, a big thank you to the cameraman who filmed my jump (I'm so sorry, I can't remember his name!). He was very friendly and made me feel comfortable from the start. My only downside was that during the freefall, the pressure caused me quite a bit of ear pain, which stopped me from enjoying that part as much as I had hoped. However, once I got used to it, I had an amazing time. If you're thinking about doing it, I highly recommend it without any hesitation. It's an unforgettable experience!
fenomenal- steve was great to have as the jumper. Big up steve
This was the most exhilarating experience of my life and I wouldn't change a thing. Miguel and Iuri were so incredible and supportive throughout the process and helped distract me when needed. The canopy ride was stunning with the view of Algarve. True professionals, lovely individuals and an unforgettable adventure. I will cherish the memory of my jumpers forever. This deserves 50 thousand stars. Thank you!🫶

This was my 2nd skydive which I didn’t think could be any better than the 1st , but boy was I wrong . This experience from start to finish was 10/10 staff were friendly and accommodating , my tandem partner introduced himself and made me feel at ease and comfortable , I paid for a second camera man jumping with me and he was the same friendly and happy . I got the opportunity to guide the parachute down which I didn’t get in Valencia and that was amazing detours highly recommend this

Thanks for choosing Skydive Algarve, and we hope to see you back in the skies again soon! 🤘🪂☀️
Had such an amazing time doing my first ever tandem skydive. The whole experience was clearly explained and advertised and the process once at the place was smooth and easy to understand. I jumped with Steve and he could not have given a better experience. All my questions were answered and all safety procedures were clear. I got to drive the parachute for a bit which was also super cool. Would definitely recommend to any thrill seekers. The view alone makes it worth it

Absolutely unforgettable experience in Portugal! This tandem skydive was the perfect birthday challenge and fear test for me. From the very beginning, the whole team was incredibly friendly, professional, and focused on safety. You can truly feel how much they care about giving everyone the best possible experience. Originally, my jump was scheduled for 9 AM, but because of the strong wind conditions, the team decided it wasn’t safe to jump yet. Instead of taking risks, they postponed it until 4 PM when the conditions improved. That alone showed me how seriously they take safety and how much attention they pay to every detail. I jumped with Danny, who was amazing — super friendly, fun, and made me feel comfortable the entire time. Unfortunately, I don’t remember the name of the guy filming the video, but he was also incredibly kind and professional! Thank you to the whole team for this beautiful experience. Portugal is truly magical, and this was one of the highlights of my trip. I promise we will meet again! ❤️ Best wishes from the crazy funny girl, Anna 🤪
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Anna! 🧡 What an amazing way to celebrate your birthday! We're thrilled that you chose to take on this challenge with us and even happier to hear it became one of the highlights of your trip to Portugal. Safety is always our top priority, so we're glad you appreciated our decision to wait for better weather conditions before the jump. The sky isn't going anywhere, and we want every experience to be as safe and enjoyable as possible. Danny will be delighted to hear your kind words, and we'll also pass your compliments on to the cameraflyer who captured your adventure. 😊 Thank you for bringing such great energy to the dropzone and for trusting us with this unforgettable birthday memory. We’ll be looking forward to welcoming the "LOVELY funny girl" back for another jump someday! ❤️ Blue skies and see you again soon! 🪂
