Tandem flights are the easiest way to experience the thrill of paragliding . You will fly with an instructor who will take care of everything and you can enjoy the great fun and the immense feeling of freedom, peace, and serenity of flying. Tandem flights require only a 10 minutes briefing before you are in the air for the first time! The flight will last between 10 and 25 minutes depending on the weather conditions. Anyone under 125 Kg (275 lbs) can fly tandem, you only need to be able to jog about 15 meters (50 feet).

Here are all the details about tandem flights: 
|
|
 |
- We fly every day in the spring and summer times so we can accommodate requests in as short as 1 day. For groups of 4 or more we request a 2 days notice. In the fall and winter, we fly every weekend either on the winter site (Meziara) or on skis on the Cedars skiing slopes if it is ski-able. Please notify us before the weekend. - Expect to be at the Cedars (or Meziara in the winter) by 10 a.m. the day of your booking this way you can take advantage of the best flying time of the day. |

- Bring sturdy footwear. Hiking and outdoor shoes like Timberland's are ideal, and please no sandals or light footwear. - Even in the summer time, please wear long pants (jeans are perfect) and bring a sweater or a long-sleeve shirt. Remember, the top take-off is at 2900 meters at the highest peaks in the Middle-East, so it might get chilly, even in the dead heat of the summer. |
 |
- Don't forget your camera. In a tandem flight, you will be sitting in the front and the instructor will be sitting behind you, so your vision is not obstructed and your hands in the air will be free and you can take as many pictures as you like. - If you have a fear of heights, hurry-up and book your flight. Paragliding is the best way to conquer your fear. |
 |
- Paragliding flights are always very smooth, but if you feel comfortable in the air and you would like to try some extreme maneuvers, ask your instructor to do 360s or wing-overs. Your heart will be pumping in no time. |
 |
- If the air is calm, you may ask your instructor to allow you to control the paraglider. Your instructor will hand you the controls and show you how to make a few turns. And don't worry, it's perfectly safe. |
