Unique and amazing experience!
An unforgettable experience with Bom Voo Rio! I had the chance to make a first paragliding flight over Rio with Augusto and it was just exceptional. Professional, reassuring, passionate, he did everything to ensure that I benefited fully from the experience. Instructions are clear, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the views of São Conrado Beach and Pedra da Gávea are breathtaking. We even had the videos of our flights, included in the price. I recommend with my eyes closed, a highlight of my trip to Brazil. Thanks again Augusto! 🙏
Response from the operator: Merci infiniment pour ces mots si chaleureux ! 🌟 C’était un immense plaisir de partager ce moment magique avec vous. Lire que votre premier vol a été "exceptionnel" me touche profondément — car chaque passager est unique, et je mets tout mon cœur pour que l’expérience soit inoubliable. Voir Rio du ciel, survoler São Conrado et la Pedra da Gávea, c’est vraiment quelque chose à vivre au moins une fois dans sa vie — et je suis honoré d’avoir pu en faire partie avec vous. Vous serez toujours la bienvenue pour un prochain vol ou simplement pour une visite. Merci encore pour votre confiance et votre belle énergie ! À bientôt et… bons vents ! 🪂

Why this scores 56
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Rio De Janeiro Panoramic Parapente Flight with BOMVOO.rio: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rio de Janeiro.
How much does Rio De Janeiro Panoramic Parapente Flight with BOMVOO.rio cost?
+
Prices start at $202 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rio de Janeiro usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Rio De Janeiro Panoramic Parapente Flight with BOMVOO.rio take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 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 Rio de Janeiro is not rushed.
Is Rio De Janeiro Panoramic Parapente Flight with BOMVOO.rio worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rio de Janeiro, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Rio De Janeiro Panoramic Parapente Flight with BOMVOO.rio?
+
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 Rio De Janeiro Panoramic Parapente Flight with BOMVOO.rio suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Rio De Janeiro Panoramic Parapente Flight with BOMVOO.rio?
+
Around 3 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 Rio de Janeiro 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 Rio de Janeiro and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Rio De Janeiro Panoramic Parapente Flight with BOMVOO.rio 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 Rio de Janeiro 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 Rio de Janeiro?
+
On Outty we rank every Rio de Janeiro experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pedra da Gávea hike, your best experience in Rio, Rio's Full Day: Selarón Steps, Christ & Sugarloaf – Tickets & Lunch Included, Favela Tour Rio de Janeiro - Vidigal Walking Tour by Russo Guide. 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 Rio de Janeiro?
+
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 Rio de Janeiro?
+
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 Rio De Janeiro Panoramic Parapente Flight with BOMVOO.rio?
+
Included: Goopro video of the take-off, flight and landing, which will be transferred to the mobile; flight equipment; Transport from the meeting point to the ramp; Training; and Personal Insurance. Not included: Video edited from camera Insta360 degrees; and Entrance fees. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Rio De Janeiro Panoramic Parapente Flight with BOMVOO.rio?
+
In front of the Free Flight Club at the Tourist Service Kiosk. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Rio De Janeiro Panoramic Parapente Flight with BOMVOO.rio offered in?
+
