What happens on the day
Wide open skies, mountainous landscapes, effortless lift, and the pure joy of silent flight – there’s nothing quite like cruising the skies in a motorless glider. This 45-minute glider ride over Lake Tahoe is an incredible experience that you’ll be talking about for years to come.
Meet up with your FAA Certified Pilot for a pre-flight safety briefing, then buckle up and get ready for take-off. In just a few thrilling seconds, you’ll go from the runway to the air, and then you’re off on an aerial adventure like no other.
Feel the adrenaline rush as you climb to a mile above the glistening Lake Tahoe. Chat with your pilot and ask questions about the aircraft and the awe-inspiring views. If you’re feeling daring, you can even take over the controls and try your hand at flying the glider yourself.
To make the most of your adventure, consider adding on an in-flight video package so you can relive the experience for years to come!
