I was very nervous to begin with, but everything was explained beforehand which made me totally focussed to get going. Whilst flying they told us about the area and the flying around the trees and mountains and was also asked if we wanted to do a few twists and turns as we got nearer the ground. It was amazing. They took some great photos and video footage of the experience for us to purchase if we wanted, which was well worth it for the memories made”
