One of my family members tragically lost their life during a skydiving jump with this company. What…read morewas supposed to be a thrilling experience turned into a nightmare our family will never recover from. We trusted this company with the safety of someone we loved. That trust was broken in the worst possible way. While accidents can happen in extreme sports, there were serious questions about the training, equipment checks, and emergency response. Communication afterward was cold and unhelpful, making an already impossible situation even harder. If you're considering skydiving with them, please think carefully. No thrill is worth a life. We hope no other family has to go through what we did.

Finally reviewing this place!…read more I decided to ask to skydive for my 18th birthday present. The staff was extremely fun and nice. I personally didn't have a bad thing to say about my experience. However.... I have no idea how this place is still in business with how many deaths they have on their hands. The latest death was from a tandem jump that was supposed to be with an instructor but the "professional jumper" wasn't rated as such. At least, that's what the news said. My experience? 10/5 stars. Everyone who has passed from this place? 0/10 stars. I went skydiving in Hawaii on the Big Island and they literally know about this skydive location in Lodi being known for deaths. They don't understand how this business is still in business.

I did a tandem jump at 13,000 feet with Lee, it was so fun and I felt so great about it that I went again the same day! The second tandem jump at 13,000 feet was with Levi, who was my (amazing!) videographer originally, and he was equally as fun to jump with. I highly recommend getting their deluxe video + picture package, it is worth it and now I can look back on my first experience for a lifetime. They clearly know what they're doing and love sharing it.

We drove to iFly Roseville from Sonoma County for my son's birthday. I wasn't sure what to expect,…read morebut we were greeted warmly and brought into the main area to get suited up. Our instructor was John-Felix, although he goes by John. My son is 22 and fairly athletic, so I figured that he'd enjoy it. What I was less prepared for was how much I loved it! It is a fairly expensive hobby, although, if you're on-site after paying for a session, they have more reasonable rates if you want to buy additional sessions. Since we don't live locally, I didn't indulge in one of the packages, despite the temptation. They walk you through everything clearly and there's a brief training class in a classroom after which we waited our turn on the perimeter while we were called up one at a time. Each "flight" was approximately 1 minute and 20 seconds and we each got two flights. We all passed on the high flight option, but during our second time they walked us through how to begin navigating in the wind tunnel during our turn. That was my favorite part! I found it fascinating feeling the degree to which small modifications in the angle of my hands or the extension of my arms changed my position and movement in the air. I felt like a bird. The flights are brief, but memorable and meant to resemble the length of time usually experienced during a skydiving jump. We didn't pay for the high flights, but we enjoyed our experience nonetheless. Our instructor was encouraging and helpful. At the end, he did a quick demonstration of the types of tricks that can be done with training, all sorts of spins and flips! Already considering when we can make it back again. * Word to the wise, my kids both have long hair and they both ended up wishing they'd had it tucked into their suits since it got significantly tangled and required quite a lengthy communion with a hairbrush afterward to get the tangles out. I think a braid might also be a good option.

They take card as payment which is great for people that don't carry cash. My instructor was Memo, I recommend you book your jump with him. He was very respectful and before putting his hands on me he explained the purpose of why he was putting his hands on my harness. He also saw I was nervous and started chatting it up which made me feel so much better. We connected well due to our background and how we have kids, which he assured me we would survive for our kiddos lol. My sister in law had the instructor Jay which was also awesome. They have options for pictures, video, or both.

It was crazy to be standing at the edge of the of the plane and seeing wild bill hanging out on the side waiting for us to jump, lol! He had great energy! Kiki was very professional, walked me through the steps and positions we were going to take leading up to boarding the plane. Bring cash to tip them!! I seen some QR codes around and thought that was their Venmo/zelle and I was wrong :( If you guys at Bay Area skydiving see this, let me know if there's a way I can tip them electronically! Overall it was a great experience! I would definitely do it again.

Holy cow! Weather and I seem to be perpetually at odds but let me tell you, it was ABSOLUTELY worth…read morethe wait! I did get cancelled on a few times, I was at first annoyed, instant gratification junky, but then realized they have no control over the weather AND safety comes first. That earned my respect right there. We met at the site at 6 am, not 6:01 or 6:12, 6am or before. Temperature plays a huge role in height and duration of flight. On time and safety are expected and delivered. At 6 sharp the ride started with tip over training, safety, and a brief roll call and waiver check and explanation. Important stuff! The balloon is beautiful and the pilots wife makes sure there are plenty of pics, she's super sweet and helpful. Takeoff is a bit disorienting, part helicopter, part jump. Once you hit the sky though, it's amazing. It is such a great feeling to float. Tim has a great sense of humor and can tell a story with gusto... between bursts of fire into the balloon. I have no idea how high we were but cows were hard to make out, they were that small. The morning couldn't have been more perfect. The landing was a bit bumpy, our training came in handy. Jarring like an old truck indoors a rough road, easy. As we waited for the truck to come and get us Tim gave us a wee history lesson on ballooning, with a champagne toast. I've been smiling all day. Independent and local, experienced and a perfect way to fly. Highly recommended is an understatement.

The pilot is very skilled and knowledgeable, and had a ton of interesting stories about his hot air balloon experiences.

It was very apparent they enjoy what they do and that helped to add to the experience. I would highly recommended this for anyone trying to come up with a unique way to propose.

AMAZING experience for one of my 20-something birthdays!!…read more If you're an adrenaline junkie like me, skydiving is for you- there's no other feeling like it and it's such a thrill. My past hs physics teacher Rob Black and his crew were so cool to dive with and made my friends' and my 1st time memorable. First you go through an educational part so you know the play by play of what's to come. Then you change into a cool flight suit, parachute pack, goggles. Next thing you know you're boarding a little plane ascending 13k feet to the clouds. I'll never forget the launch- my tandem instructor and I sat at the edge of the plane opening, he goes "Ready, 1...." And then he hurled us both out! I was expecting for us to go at "3!" Free fall was such a freeing experience - I was flying! I was on top of the world and remember seeing little squares of green, brown on the ground and the wind flapping my cheeks. I will never forget that feeling. Then 3 taps and the parachute emerged and we soared and eventually floated down and landed. Recommend getting the package with the pics and video so you can relive the experience! I was on a high the rest of the day and still remember this experience vividly several years later. Highly recommend Skydance!

Our tour guides were hilarious, entertaining, and did an amazing job making us feel safe and comfortable throughout the entire experience. They even sang Happy Birthday to him at the end of our zipline tour as he repelled from the tree. They really made the tour memorable. We also reserved one of a Treehouse for an overnight stay, and it was absolutely beautiful! It had such a fun glamping feel and was fully furnished with everything we needed. I was worried I might be cold overnight, but there was a heater that kept the treehouse nice and cozy. The staff was incredibly kind, welcoming, and accommodating from start to finish. We truly had a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend Sonoma Zipline Adventures and the treehouse stay to our friends and family. So much fun, beautiful scenery in the middle of the forest. Great accommodations, wonderful staff, and definitely worth it! We can't wait to come back!
