Do not book with this company!

When buying the tickets, the company does not make it clear that you can't buy a single ticket up the gondola, instead you have to buy a return ticket. Adding a return ticket to the price of the activity makes it more expensive than other paragliding companies in the area that have transport included and that paraglide in a much more beautiful area near Queenstown. The company has told me they are going to make this more obvious when booking but please make sure you are aware of this before buying and look into the other options that are available.

From G Force Tandem Paragliding

Hi Sam, as we explained to you during our post flight correspondence; The requirement to purchase a separate gondola ticket is clearly outlined during the booking process. The Skyline Gondola only offers return tickets, which is beyond our control. We further note that when flying with Gforce you may also come back up the gondola free of charge after your flight, and then back down again. For the price of a return ticket you are able to use the gondola 3 times, significantly adding value in our opinion. We were happy to hear you enjoyed the flight experience on the day. We take pride in offering the most spectacular paragliding flights in Queenstown, providing an unforgettable experience. Thanks again for flying with us. Gforce Team
