Very poor communication - save yourself the trouble, time, and frustration. Book with someone else!!!
Terrible experience, terrible communication, predatory. We texted the company several times the ORIGINAL day of the excursion for confirmation and we were told everything was still on and conditions looked good. Once we arrived at the meeting point and called our original contact Diego, he didn’t answer. We finally get picked up an hour later than what was explained to us in our itinerary and no one properly communicated this to us AT ALL. They then drive us out to the site just to tell us the weather is too poor to paraglide. They pressure use to rebook for the next day even though we had other plans, spent $100 in cab fairs and wasted half a day of our trip. We reluctantly agree as this was our main activity for the trip. When we get back to our hotel we are told by the unbiased staff that the weather is not great for flying this time of year, and that it we will likely have the same issue tomorrow. We wake up early the following day and see that the forecast is very similar as the day before. We again reach out to company and do not get a reply. Rather than asking our driver to make a 90 min trip to come get us, we decided to cancel rather than go through another poor experience. The company never responded to our previous texts, but once we said we’re canceling due to continued consistent weather, they got hostile, insisted the weather was now fine and that they will not being issuing a refund. How they know this definitely when they didn’t know anything about anything the previous morning is telling. The fact they didn’t respond until we canceled tells ya all that you need to know. I’d recommend using a company that is honest, timely and cares about their customers. Once they saw an opportunity to steal our money they were suddenly very responsive. BUYER BEWARE!!
Response from the operator: Estimados Andrea Kotarba y Michael Murphy: Lamentamos que no se pudiera realizar el vuelo el día acordado debido a las condiciones climáticas. Aunque ustedes decidieron Reprogramar o reservar para otro día, finalmente cancelaron la actividad a último momento sin previo aviso. Aunque entendemos que se sentían descompuestos, según el chat que tenemos queremos recordarle que las condiciones climáticas eran adecuadas para volar y que ya teníamos todo organizado según el itinerario establecido. Desafortunadamente, no podemos ofrecer un reintegro ya que las reglas de nuestra compañía son claras en cuanto a cancelaciones a último momento. Siempre buscamos cumplir con los horarios y planes establecidos en tiempo y forma. Agradecemos su comprensión y esperamos tener la oportunidad de que puedan hacer el vuelo en el futuro. Atentamente, Diego Boeris

Scammers
They asked for a transfer before indicating the address, after receiving the deposit they say that they will not go to that place to look for the people. And they refuse to refund the money.

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Extended Flight with Instructor: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mendoza.
How much does Extended Flight with Instructor cost?
+
Prices start at $257 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mendoza usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Extended Flight with Instructor take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mendoza is not rushed.
Is Extended Flight with Instructor worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 18 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mendoza, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Extended Flight with Instructor?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Extended Flight with Instructor suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Extended Flight with Instructor?
+
Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mendoza can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mendoza and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Extended Flight with Instructor start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mendoza within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Mendoza?
+
On Outty we rank every Mendoza experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include High Mountain, Aconcagua and Inca Bridge, Andes High Mountain full day Tour, Horseback riding and roast in the mountains of Mendoza. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Mendoza?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Mendoza?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Extended Flight with Instructor?
+
Included: Photography and HD video; 4x4 crossing to the top of the arc hill; Possibility of flying with friends or as a couple at the same time; Paragliding Flight with Instructor; and Complimentary glass of wine. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Extended Flight with Instructor?
+
independence square in front of the Hyatt. calle chile and av. sarmiento Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Extended Flight with Instructor offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Extended Flight with Instructor?
+

+
