Reviews of Paragliding in Pokhara by Past Trekkers

Unforgettable Paragliding Experience in Pokhara

Pokhara had always been on my radar as a peaceful lakeside town, but I had no idea the paragliding here would completely blow my mind—and I'm so glad I booked it through Majestic Trails Nepal. As someone who’s never done paragliding before, I had a million questions about safety, equipment, landing, and whether I’d freak out mid-air. The Majestic Trails Nepal team was reassuring, extremely professional, and very transparent about safety protocols. They briefed me clearly, introduced me to my tandem pilot (shoutout to Suraj), and made me feel completely secure from the get-go. We took off from Sarangkot, and the moment we lifted into the sky… I couldn’t stop smiling. Below me, the Phewa Lake shimmered in the morning sun, and in the distance, I saw the majestic peaks of the Annapurna Range, Machapuchare, and Dhaulagiri. It wasn’t just adrenaline—it was awe. The flight was about 25 minutes long, with just the right mix of smooth gliding and a few optional acrobatic spins that made my stomach drop in the best way. My pilot was clearly experienced—he kept checking in to make sure I was comfortable and explained what we were flying over. I even got a GoPro video included in the package, which I still can’t stop watching. What stood out about Majestic Trails Nepal was that they didn’t treat this as just another adventure sale—they really care about the client’s experience, from hotel pickup to smooth registration and even a quick coffee after the flight. No hidden costs, no delays—everything was handled with professionalism and Nepali warmth. As a traveler who’s done skydiving in Australia and bungee jumping in Switzerland, I can say this was just as thrilling—but even more beautiful thanks to the Himalayan backdrop. Whether you're a first-timer or an adrenaline junkie, paragliding in Pokhara is a must—and Majestic Trails Nepal is the company to do it with.
