a fascinating flying holiday experience with Olympic Wings

picture impressions from the *South FlyTour 2022*

We have selected climate and geo diverse flying sites of the mountains in the south of Greece that have been chosen by pilots from all over Europe for their interesting climate and beautiful landscapes.

Fantastic thermal conditions with diverse geological aspects and great XC possibilities at all of the sites.

We will not only take you between take offs and landings but most important support you from our own experience of competition and XC flying in the area with key information to understand and make the best use of the local weather systems and route options always with safety.

This tour takes you paragliding at remote new flying areas with a surprise itinerary specially designed by the Olympic Wings team.

We visit destinations in South Greece that offer great thermal and cross country flying over original landscapes plus coastal flights with impressive sea views – not missing a day of flying.

We can ensure you will enjoy your days flying at the different sites and improve your skills.

Pilots flying with us experience thermal technical flying in addition to smooth flights into the sunset. 

Flexibility and organizational backup, to combine areas across regions with minimum transport time further based on the weather allow us to meet each flying site at the best conditions.

A holiday nonetheless, we travel comfortable through welcoming villages and small towns. We rest nicely in newly-renovated hotels and high quality guesthouses with fresh breakfast, near the sea or on the mountain near the take off.

Suggestions and tips for lovely meals every evening from local-made products to enjoy in a relaxing ambiance.
