we drive up to the flying location that is most suitable for the current weather conditions. There are a few excellent takeoff points around Vik, which gives you an opportunity to enjoy the superb views of the area and us the flexibility to choose a suitable location depending on the weather so your chance of flying is higher.
Once we are at the takeoff site we do a briefing during which we take you through the details of the flight and explain about the equipment and safety procedures. After a safety check, we’re ready to take off so we run a few steps down a gentle slope and it’s time to sit back and enjoy your flight. Depending on your desire, abilities, the weather conditions and the area where we fly, your instructor might let you handle the controls during the flight. If you just want to relax and admire the scenery, that’s OK too, the main objective is to have a good time.
you will fly fro almost 20 to 30 min depending on weather condition

Legitimate integrity
Sure, you can buy this experience almost anywhere in phokara..what you can’t buy is the ethical integrity Bishnu and associate showed me..
The day l was due to do my paragliding, a storm came in...was a non event!!
The rest of my time in Nepal l’d other things planned so Rescheduling wasn’t an option.
Bishnu and co made every effort to get too me in time before l flew out to head back to Australia, came to my hotel in Kathmandu with my refund..
That kind of service can’t be bought..
He’s my man when next in Nepal...
From Australia.......thanks mate..

An Adventure
Paragliding was super fun! I paid and scheduled online which isn't totally necessary but was a nice time saver. If you are pretty sure you will enjoy paragliding, I highly recommend going straight for the 45 min ride. I initially paid for the 45 min ride but was shuttled into a group that only paid for the 25 min ride. Although I was bummed, Bishnu was able to refund the difference and make it right. The pilots are friendly and trusted. They also take great photos / videos. Be prepared for the ride up the mountain though -- it will look something like ~12 grown adults cramming into an 8 person vehicle. It will be a memorable experience :)
The best way to navigate Nepal is to contact Bishnu with any recommendations. He won't try to scam you and he is friendly and efficient. When our bus tour cancelled last minute, I gave him a call and he ran to me in under 10 minutes. He was able to get me a private car at a great rate. He also made 2 personal hotel visits on his own dime to make sure we were happy.
