I am already thinking about more lessons back on the mainland. You get an amazing view, learn a lot, and photos of an activity that might soon become a hobby.

You get an hour lesson on how to fly a trike and go up with Armin as your instructor.

Had a blast! This is definitely one of the best things to do on Maui as the tagline says. Armin is an incredibly kind and charismatic guide who even gives you a lesson while you’re in the air and allows you to steer! Can’t recommend this enough for anyone looking for a unique experience that you won’t forget. This was definitely one of the highlights of our Maui trip! After reading about this in our Maui guidebook, my wife and I opted to do this instead of a helicopter tour and we were NOT disappointed! Hang gliding over Maui offers you an unparalleled view of this gorgeous island. The ride was smooth (didn’t have to worry about being airsick), exciting and the views and experience just cannot be described. We had done a helicopter tour a couple of days before (which had made us a little queasy) and this was way better to see the island. When performing stunts, the pilot must always be capable of deploying their reserve effectively, even under high G-forces. Armin is super friendly, very experienced and made the whole experience amazing. We made our one day road to Hana trip into a 2 day trip because we wanted to do Hang gliding on one day and it was so worth it. Oh, and if you are prone to motion sickness, you won’t have to worry about that with us! For added piece of mind, our aircraft is equipped with an emergency parachute and can fly and land without engine power. With over 28 years in business and some 20,000 flying hours, we have a 100% safety record. This aircraft also provides additional benefits in comfort and convenience and enables longer air time. The micro-light ‘trike’ (as this type of aircraft is known) provides the experience of hang gliding while also being capable of flying in a wider range of weather conditions. This micro-light aircraft features a hang gliding wing and weight shift operation, very much like a traditional hang glider, but powered by a reliable 912cc 4-cycle Rotax aircraft engine. We do this by offering interactive flight lessons using an Airborne XT 912. At Hang Gliding Maui, we are dedicated to the preservation of the sport of Hang Gliding by offering powered hang gliding flights for the first time pilot as well as those with experience.
