(February 2024) WOW. First experience. You can imagine how…read morescary it is leading up to the skydive. We had people in our group ranging from thrilled to extremely anxious. All of our jumpers were extremely skilled and made us feel so safe. I was paired with Carlos Silva who landed less than five minutes before coming right back up with me. Martin got me all strapped up with my gear and let me know Carlos would be taking me. It helps to know their names and feel more connected with them before strapping up. I was worried about meeting him later than my friends met their jumpers but I was lucky enough to watch him land with another jumper so I knew he was good at it! Our party was 6 total so we got the whole plane to ourselves. It was nice to see our jumpers being buddy buddy with each other bc it allowed us to talk on the plane too versus sitting in terror. The jump out is immediate. He was good at reminding me anything I needed to do and wasn't (relax, etc). If you have preferences (keep it slow, no swinging etc) you should tell them. They'll do their best to accommodate what your needs are. Pro tip: don't close your mouth while you're up there as much as you may want to, the video will look crazier lol with all the air blowing on you Thank you Carlos and Jump Florida!! Unforgettable.

The wait time wasn't long, the jump was incredible, and the landing was perfect! Not to mention, all the pictures (and the video) came out great!! Thank you Jump Florida Skydiving!!!!!!

AMAZING experience! You have to try this! Dave and Brandon were wonderful. We were concerned about…read morethe weather but it turned out to be a stunning balloon morning. They kept us apprised of their thought process regarding weather and safety. We met up with some other balloonists before take off. The entire process was fascinating and it was amazing because they involved us in every step. We felt safe and taken care of the entire duration. I loved hearing about the history of hot air balloons and the tradition of the champagne toast. The views in the balloon were spectacular- it is so peaceful above the trees. We loved seeing the different bird species below and even a couple of gators. We waved to pedestrians and people in their homes along the way, as well. Our landing was way smoother than expected. We also really enjoyed the Bob Evan's brunch afterward. They have a max capacity of 5 on the balloon. We lucked out with no other passengers for a more private ride. You have the option to book it privately if you want to ensure a private ride. The price was $550 which I found to be incredibly affordable considering the bucket list item it is. This included the ride, champagne toast, and Bob Evan's breakfast. You essentially also get a history lesson and a beginners guide to hot air balloon operation if you pay attention and listen closely! I can definitely see how someone could get hooked. The feeling is almost indescribable when you are in the air! What a wonderful experience right here in Tampa!

It was the most peaceful, serene experience! My girlfriend and I were terrified of heights and flying but he set us at ease and we are both super happy we went. This experience is one we will never forget!

We had the most amazing experience hang gliding at Wallaby Ranch!…read moreThe actual experience is pretty scary (much scarier than the skydiving I've done in the past) but the instructor, Malcolm, makes it as comfortable as possible. He clearly knows what he's doing and actually gave us the chance to steer while we were up there. I love the idea of the plane taking you up and untethering once you've reached a high enough altitude, it's a clever work around when you're trying to hang glide in a flat area like Florida. You're not up in the air for long but the whole experience is so surreal and exciting that you appreciate every moment. Staff were also super friendly, I really appreciated them taking awesome pictures and videos for me. I'd 100% recommend Wallaby Ranch and Malcolm to anyone wanting a truly memorable experience.

I feel bad for the skydiver employees because they were super nice & on top of making you feel comfortable but the business just does not have it together. After waiting to hours, you are then super rushed to get onto the plan and you're second guessing whether you know all you need to know. You get a few simple instructions and that's it! I was okay with it but I thought there would be more. Overall, skydiving is the bomb but the waiting process and set up bites. Enjoy!

Amazing Experience at iFLY!…read more Instructor Gaven and Manager Kyle were by far the best! Gaven was informative, professional, and made everyone feel completely at ease. I felt safe and confident throughout the entire flight experience--and it was so much fun that we even added extra flight time! Manager Kyle was incredibly kind, professional, and truly great at what he does. He was especially accommodating and patient with my kids, which made the experience even better for our whole family. We had such an amazing time that we ended up purchasing 10 more flight times. Highly recommend iFLY and ask for Gaven and Kyle--you won't be disappointed!
