How to choose

Both tours launch from Plataies, in Boeotia, and cost exactly 120 €, so the real differentiator is time in the air. O2 Paragliding offers a 20 to 40 min flight: tighter windows, faster turnaround, ideal if you want the rush without a long commitment. Dream Paragliding locks you in for 1.5h, covering launch, flight and landing at two possible sites near Megara, giving your nervous system more time to process what's happening at altitude. Both welcome all fitness levels and operate in English and Greek. If you're chasing maximum air time for your 120 €, book Dream Paragliding. If you want a sharp, focused adrenaline hit, O2 Paragliding delivers it efficiently.

Frequently asked questions

How intense is the launch moment?
The takeoff is the sharpest part: you go from standing still to airborne in a few running steps, and the ground drops away fast. Most first-timers describe it as the biggest spike of the experience.
Do I need to be afraid of heights to enjoy this?
A fear of heights from a ladder or rooftop doesn't always translate to paragliding. With no rigid structure beneath you, many people find the sensation closer to floating than falling. That said, if heights trigger a strong physical response, talk to your pilot before takeoff.
What's the most intense moment during the flight?
Pilots can perform thermal spirals and wingovers on request, which tighten your stomach and spike the adrenaline well beyond the cruise phase. Ask your pilot before launch if you want the wilder version.
Which tour gives more flight time for 120 €?
Dream Paragliding's 1.5h package gives you significantly more total air time than O2 Paragliding's 20 to 40 min window, at the exact same price.
Can I fly solo as a complete beginner?
Both tours are tandem flights: you're strapped to a certified pilot the entire time. No experience, training or physical preparation is required.
