The Joy Ride Archives

Early in the morning we leave for our flying area, 1,5 hour drive from Sucre on the road to Cochabamba. The car will drop us up in the mountains from where you will fly in TANDEM with the instructor. The flights will take about 10 minutes, descending over more than 500m, landing on the dry banks of the Rio Chico. If there's thermals and you're up to catching one of them, the flight can take up to 20 minutes. After every flight the car will pick you up and drive you and the equipment back up into the mountains to prepare the next flight.

All our pilots come from Cochabamba, Bolivia's paragliding walhalla! They all work for or are owners of different paragliding schools in Cochabamba and count with a minimum of 500 flights equivalent to 400 flight hours... As they have to come from Cochabamba, no tour can be booked for the next day, but always for the day after. All the instructors speak spanish and english..

Very important is NOT TO EAT too much for breakfast in order to avoid flight sickness. And we recommend to bring a jacket and a good pair of hiking shoes for an appropiate take off... We will bring you a lunchbox including a sandwich, some fruit juice, a snack and a piece of fruit. As every adventure tour in JOY RIDE, this one also ends with a FREE DRINK in the bar !!


INCREDIBLE OFFER: Add 60 Bs. and get a JOY RIDE T-SHIRT.




Don’t forget to bring a jacket, hiking shoes, sunblock, a hat, water, your camera and some money....
