Highly recommend paragliding in the Tetons with this group! My 9 year old son and I flew with Dave & Dan. Both of them were fantastic pilots & gave very clear instructions on what to do. Never once was I ever worried or uncertain about our flight! This was one of the BEST experiences ever!

The guide was safe and fun. This is an exhilarating experience, with flips if you ask for them, but always safety first. We were convinced by the guide that took us- very kind- he told us that it was safe and he was right. This company has never had a worse accident than a broken bone because of the person not following directions. This is a must do in any season, the safest season for this though is July and August. This was the best part of my trip!

My husband, our 17 year old son, and I each did this a couple of weeks ago. It was an incredible experience! Our pilots were Scott, Dan, and David, and they are all outstanding and professional. I was a little nervous about the takeoff and landing, but Scott reassured me and was solid as a rock. I give this my highest recommendation. The front desk staff were also wonderful. You won’t regret going paragliding with them!

Scott made this one of the best experiences of our lives! I took flight and landed in ski boots, laughing and smiling the whole way. There’s no better way to take in the beauty of the Tetons. Thank you, Scott!

Before our trip I knew I wanted to go paragliding for the first time; however our schedule allowed for only one specific day. I gambled and waited for the day of to book as I wanted weather to be right for this experience. Luckily, there was still availability.
The flight was amazing for my husband and me. Both of our guides were great with instruction and gave us and amazing ride in perfect conditions allowing for a nice long ride. They truly wanted us to enjoy it, and we did! Absolutely an amazing activity with a great way to see the mountains!
As a side note, they take videos and pictures with a Go Pro as part of the package. The guides all know how to transfer if you have an iPhone. If you have an android, they do not, which is what my husband and I have. My husband's guide took the time onsite to figure out how to manually transfer them from the Go Pro to his phone in order for us to have all files before we left. My guide took my information and went to the next flight.
I later got my pictures and no videos. Obviously they were too large to send by email. Contacting the company was useless as they offered no help and just said sorry you can't get them - it was a very poor customer service response and they don't deserve 5 stars. However, my guide kept trying and I have finally received all files. Both mine and my husband's guide deserve the 5 stars for the experience they gave us and giving us lasting memories.

I had an amazing experience paragliding with Steve in Jackson Hole. From the start signing up and getting on schedule was a breeze. On the day I was to go paragliding I took the back way into Jackson Hole and to my disappointment when I was about 8miles away the road was closed therefore I was going to be late I called the office and the Girl who answered said no biggie it's going to happen all summer just take your time we will see you when you get here (what a relief I thought I would be out all the money I put down) when I arrived I checked in nervously this is my first time gliding off a mountain.
When I met my instructor Steve he said let's go we jumped on the ski lift headed up the mountain we had a good conversation Steve was engaged in asking questions about my life and he made me feel at ease. When we reached the top of the mountain we headed out he gave me some instructions of what was going to happen and we send it down the mountain in just a few steps we were flying through the air. It was spectacular I mean it was Awesome!!! Steve was showing me things from a birds I view. Just before we landed Steve said do you want to feel some G's I said yes so he sent us to the left and right swerving around in the sky it was scary but was the best part hands down. We landed safely just after.. and I said thanks to Steve and off I went.
I had a great experience and a great instructor I highly recommend them.
Thanks guys Joe S from Michigan!!!!

t was a gorgeous day at Teton Village, and I could not help but endlessly watch the tandem paragliders that took off from the top of the Bridget Gondola landing. Sure enough, in less than an hour, I was in the village inquiring about a last-minute tandem paragliding excursion.
Because the conditions have to be prime for a safe flight, and because the guides can be tired after a long day of flying, it is difficult to make last-minute reservations and be guaranteed a flight. Trey, my guide, although he had led several tours throughout the day, and although the winds were picking up, he was willing to try to fit one more flight into his schedule.
We rode the Bridget Gondola to approximately 9,100 feet in elevation, and Trey gave a great overview and lesson of the rider's responsibilities during the flight. He explained it simply, and it was easy for someone like me, who has no paragliding experience, to understand.
Since the winds picked up, it was becoming less likely that we would fly; however, I appreciated the fact that Trey was willing to be patient and see if the winds would calm down. He waited it out with me, and, sure enough, the conditions became prime for flying!
We had a thrilling ride over the resort. We were able to turn around and face the mountain, which provided incredible views from a unique, irreplaceable vantage point. Trey also offered to do some tricks, like spinning around on our side, and I gladly accepted!
Overall, I would highly recommend taking a tandem paraglide flight. The views were incredible, and it was a thrilling experience for anyone who is interested in extreme sports. I felt completely safe the entire time and felt comfortable taking on the rider's responsibilities. Trey provided a high-quality experience that was worth the price. I would highly recommend making a reservation in advance and in the morning for more surety that the conditions will be safe enough for flying.

3 of 5 of us did this including a 13 yo and 9 yo who have never done anything like this before. They LOVED it and want to do it everyday/ everywhere we go now! The skydiver of our group said she enjoyed it even more than that! Our pilots- Matt, Josh & Tommy were the best! They downloaded amazing pics and videos they took on the way down for everyone after landing! Great souvenirs!

My husband and 18 year old son did this and LOVED it! Wanted to do it again! As a spectator, I was told which kite colors they would be so I could watch from the landing site (approximately a 7 minute walk). My son took his phone on the flight and got a great video. About 12 paragliders go around the same time - just beautiful to watch - I suggest taking binoculars if you have them. And take bug spray for the landing site!
Bucket list experience and such a special memory! Highlight of our trip!

Paragliding above JHMR was a phenomenal experience that I will never forget! Trey, my pilot was super friendly and obviously very knowledgable and experienced. His clear instructions made me feel calm and completely safe up there. Oh, and the views! Wow! Worth every dime! I highly recommend JHP and pilot Trey Hackney if you want to have a unique experience that you will always remember.
