Paragliding

Paragliding is a great experience in Cuzco. Thermals are strong, and the views are great.
It is done either near Chinchero or near Pisaq. The flight itself takes 15-45 minutes, it depends on your luck. It feels much more stable that it looks. The pilots take care of everything, and you just look around the beautiful valley.

The whole excursion can take many hours. If there is a big group, it takes as long as 8 hours. Each time the pilots are in the air, the other are waiting till they finish their flight, fold the equipment, and drive back to the jumping point. Another precaution, don't go if you have a weak stomach that day.
Prices range from 60 to 80 USD.
