Having planned on a Paragliding trip prior to our holiday to Olu Deniz, I had decided in advance to use Sky Sports based on the outstanding Tripadvisor reviews. I was not disappointed in the slightest. As others have mentioned on here - They are not the cheapest in the area - But they are the safest, without question. I made my booking at the office with Michael, who was simply excellent. He explained everything in great detail, and why they charge what they do in comparison to others. My flight was with Suko, who was amazing. Very experienced - With 20+ years flying, and had been with Sky Sports for over 7 years. He took time to explain everything, chatted with me the entire flight, and made the whole thing a truly memorable experience. The difference with Sky Sports and the other companies is that Sky Sports put SAFETY first - pure and simple. During our stay, there were 2 days when Sky Sports did not fly, as they deemed it too windy, or not safe enough to do so. On one of these days, another company had a pilot crash-land on the beach area, injuring his back, and the passenger was taken to Hospital. Also - Whilst at the Hotel - there were 2 or 3 guests that we saw that came back from their flight using one of the "cheaper" companies. These guests came back with a range of poor / bad experiences - The most of which was bruising to the arms, sides and other parts of the body. Another was also very sick, literally, mid-flight, due to the pilot doing huge spins without even being asked first if the passenger wanted to go ahead with any tricks or turns. The Sky Sports pilots ask you first if you want to do them, and will do gentle, slow ones first to see if you like the feel of them or not. This Paragliding adventure is a once in a lifetime experience - and as with anything in life - you get what you pay for. If you want to do the flight and save yourself 40 quid or whatever, then choose a cheaper company and hope for the best. Otherwise - Choose the company with the exceptional record, and that have your safety first from day one. I cannot recommend Sky Sports highly enough.…

10/10 all the way. I had such a brilliant experience and my instructor was amazing. The company is first class and have worked together for a lot of years as part of a team. I felt safe throughout my flight and not once did I feel in danger. The photos and 3D pictures that were taken are worth every penny and something I will treasure for ever. My instructor pointed out certain landmarks in the distance and we even did a couple of tricks which was fun too. If you are going to do this please do your research and don’t go for the cheapest option your safety is paramount. I would highly recommend these guys I had such a great time …
