Gagik K.

First time at a skydive. The paperwork, the camera recording of me saying I agree with the things I read and the warning video was sooo horrifying. Tony was assigned to me as my tandem. So I have to say Tony is AMAZING. The jokes, the comments and more just helped put me to ease before even getting on the airplane. That 20 min interaction with him really relaxed me to trust him with my life in his hands. Thank you Tony. Amazing experience.

This is an outstanding operation. From reserving our spot until touchdown the process is very thorough but very easy to navigate. Of course as a skydiver you sign many waivers and legal documents. But I'd expect nothing less. The office staff are friendly and efficient, the training is great, and the instructors are absolutely the best. My son and I had a great time and can't wait to do it again. If you're debating about going, just stop and DO IT! I also recommend getting the deluxe video and picture package, it's a memory to last forever!

Great place, we came as a big group of 10 and they were able to get us scheduled on two back to back planes. Tony helped me out and he's awesome, answered all my questions. This wasn't my first time jumping, but it was my first time jumping here. I'll be back.

My son excited to jump.

I'm surprised that they don't have an overall rating of 5 stars, but I guess you just can't please everyone. This was my third jump overall, but my first jump here at Skydive Lake Elsinore and my total experience went so well, I highly recommend for other skydive enthusiasts to come here, but I would definitely comeback again. My tandem instructor Merv is awesome. He was very friendly, super professional and has 15 years of experience. He makes you feel very safe and at ease. Our jump of course went very well and had a perfect stand up landing. From beginning to end the office staff were also super friendly and very knowledgeable in the packages they offer. Jumpers even get a T-shirt and a certificate of completion for their jump. A lot more than I've gotten at my previous jump sites i have been to. Thank you Skydive Lake Elsinore for making it a Five Star experience.

What an amazing, fun, and professional experience. I love the team here. Everything is simple and easy, and highly recommended!! Get your skydiving on here!

An amateur! Haha

This was the best experience ever for my birthday. I woke one morning and said.... I think it's time to do awesome, so I did! Geesr staff, great video and photographers. The pilot obviously gets kudos, too. My tandem buddy Alex S. He has great patience and gives clear directions on what to do from beginning to the landing. I am now addicted and cannot wait until my next jump!

The whole experience was amazing! From the check in with our reservation to the end was great. At check in the woman that helped us out was friendly and responded great with my husbands humor. She made it super simple to check in and told me that being the first time to get the whole package of videos and photos. Sooo worth it because it made it so much better and wish we purchased my husband's jump too. Merv was such a great instructor and was super easy to talk to about it. He gave me all the obvious instructions and was relaxed where it made me so comfortable to jump with him. It was such a rush! During the jump Merv was great and just made the overall experience awesome! Also shoutout to the videographer ( I wish I caught his name) and to Merv for capturing my experience where I can watch it again! I HIGHLY recommend this place!

See all

Reviews are largely positive. People consistently highlight the friendly and knowledgeable staff, professional and calming instructors, and a well-organized experience. The environment is also clean and welcoming.

Is jumping in the summer much better than in winter (in this location or around)? And how often is it too cloudy to jump?

Hi Victoria. We are open all year round. Summer is usually clear but the heat & winds can some times effect the jump. During the winter time we do get some overfast days, but even on overcast days we can sometimes jump. If you have more questions… 

Hello! Thinking of going in a group. What's the plane's capacity?

We have a couple aircraft that we use for tandems. One of our planes will hold up to 18 passengers and the other will hold up to 23.

Is there age, height, weight requirements?

Hi Brian. Yes. Everyone must be over 18 years old, under 250lbs. But we do not have a height limit. :)

How long it takes for the whole thing ,if i booked for 11:00 am when i should be there and when i will finish approximately?

Try to get there by 1030. They tell u expect to be there 2-4 hrs. I was there about 3hrs. After u checkin at ur booking time Youll be sitting around for awhile. I suggest bring water/light snacks. Then they'll call u and get u assigned with ur… 

How to cancel my group booking appointment that I paid for? I know I might not take my money back but how to cancel before time...

Please call us directly at 951.245.9939

Do I have to get the USPA License before my first jump and how?

Hello. Are you a first time jumper? Or a licensed jumper? As a first time jumper, no. Licensed jumper yes. If you would like more info, you can contact us at Skydive@skydiveelsinore.com.

Is there a discount for students?

no there is not

Am I go to there by myself or someone will pick me up? Thank you

The best experience ever !! We showed up to the site bright and early the team was very organized…read more Our driver was so sweet and explained everything he was so funny with everything and calmed my nerves without knowing because I am afraid of heights but didn't express it when he asked the group he explained how safe it was and how it would feel being in the air and in the basket which he was right. Every step was explained to us . When we got there the crew set up and they took our pics it was cute because it was our anniversary and they gave us a sign to hold and made sure everyone got their picture taken . We had the privilege of being flown by the owners son. He had so much cool information the guys loved it but so did the gals. He knew all of the mountains names and lakes names and explain to us how he flies and gets into the winds currents using the fire . Told us how fast we were going and it felt so calm in the air we got to see the sunrise it was gorgeous. He got up I think 6,000 feet above sea level . He said we got up on a really good day and not every flight is the same . Also the heat from the fire and the body warmth made it feel nice in the air it felt like room temperature even though the morning was cold , take a jacket for sure . After we landed and he explained everything before we did . Went got to have mimosas and he told us the history of the first air balloon and rides while the crew wrapped up the gear. He shared some his own personal hobbies and sports and injuries . Such a cool guy and very interesting to hear and talk to . He rode us back to the winery which his family also owns . Thank you so much to your whole crew it was amazing ! The vibes were it! I will attach pictures and feel blessed to have had such a great experience so thank you

I'm giving California Dreamin' Hot Air Balloon Adventures 2 stars because the actual balloon ride…read moreitself was beautiful and offered incredible views of Temecula Wine Country. Unfortunately, the overall experience was disappointing. Our day started at 4:05 AM with a hotel pickup. We were then driven to the owner's property to sign waivers. For an additional fee, guests receive a bottle of wine and a Nothing Bundt Cake. However, the bottle of wine we were given had no label whatsoever, so we had no idea what type of wine it was, where it came from, or any information about it. Afterward, we were transported to the launch site. Once there, we waited approximately 45 minutes while the balloon was being set up. During that time, three other balloon companies arrived after us and were airborne within about 10 minutes. It was frustrating to spend so much time standing around waiting. The flight itself was amazing and the reason this review is getting 2 stars instead of 1. The landing was rough and felt unstable, as though the basket could tip over. We landed on private property where the owner appeared upset that we were there, which created an uncomfortable situation for everyone. After landing, we then waited another 30-45 minutes before being allowed out of the basket while the crew deflated and packed everything up. Once again, there was a lot of standing around and waiting. When the post-flight celebration finally began, guests were offered Costco Prosecco, apple cider, and orange juice. What stood out was that one of the crew members was serving drinks with visibly dirty hands, which was not particularly appetizing. In addition, an already-open, partially consumed bottle of orange juice was brought out and served to guests. That felt unprofessional and unsanitary. The overall celebration was very underwhelming. Considering this is Temecula Wine Country, I expected something more thoughtful and polished than Costco Prosecco and a mystery bottle of unlabeled wine. And they left it on the truck What was most disappointing were several unprofessional comments made during the experience. There were jokes and remarks involving naked women and drug-related topics that felt inappropriate, especially in a business setting where guests of all ages and backgrounds are present. It made the experience feel less professional than expected. We also landed in an area surrounded by brush and were warned about the possibility of snakes while waiting for transportation. Overall, the balloon ride itself was fantastic, but the customer experience, professionalis

My bday ride with my girlfriend (who also has the same bday haha) had to be rescheduled due to weather conditions unfortunately...

I appreciate the love and understanding, and I can't wait to take my flight among the clouds!

When we arrived we were greeted with donuts and coffee. yay! nothing major i know but still kind gesture. Also, while you wait if you need to use the restroom, Porta- Potties only. We got divided into three groups and my friend and i ended up in the second group. Which was pretty cool as the 2nd group had to jump in the van and meet up with the balloon once the ride was over for group #1. So we were hot air balloon chasers. Once it was our turn, the balloon itself has four compartments where two (maybe three) people fit in each compartment. The pilot stands in the center. So in total there were 9 of us in the balloon. The ride itself was very peaceful. Theres something surreal about the dead quiet of the sky. silence. It was a pretty cool experience and i would recommend it for those looking for a low impact thrill. We were probably in the air for about 45 minutes. Once we landed, gracefully i may say, we drove back to where we started and were greeted with our certificates and mimosas :) Overall, great experience!!! THANK YOU.
